I’m a public defender from California’s great redneck interior. I fight the good fight to stand up for people’s constitutional rights when it’s not popular or sexy to do so.

Remember: The oligarchs who control our economy and democracy seek to divide us so they can become more powerful. They want us to turn on each other so we don't look up and see where all the wealth and power have gone. Don't fall for it.

Elon musk is the richest man in the world, he could be funding hospitals, medical research and universities. He could be solving the climate crisis. He could be feeding, hungry children. Instead, he’s trying to make sure that your grandmother doesn’t get an extra dollar of Social Security.

Interesting poll showing 54% of blue collar voters feel Trump doesn’t care much or at all about them. But even among voters who said Trump only cared about them “some “ he still won a majority. Would be interesting to talk to those people to see why they voted the way they did.

What can you do? Don’t give up hope. Dictators feed off your hopelessness. Don’t quit. Dictators want you to give up. Punch back. Dictators are bullies, and bullies are cowards. Stay tethered to the truth. Dictators need you to believe their lies. Resist. Stand with others.

You wouldn't dismantle the agency that protects consumers for corporate abuse and scams unless you wanted your rich buddies to be able to abuse and scam consumers.

The days of being a “savvy” insider who doesn’t take sides is over. Unfortunately there’s still a bunch of people on the center left in this country who think they can have their cake and eat it too. They can’t. They are going to have to choose sides.

The Republicans are treasonous. The Democrats are useless.

This is okay, it's better than it's been, but Dems still aren't really using the language of crisis or being honest about the problem. Trump is conducting an illegal, authoritarian power grab. THAT'S the crisis. It's an assault on our system of government.
