Simon and Katie--Your conversation today is profoundly significant and important. Your take on the clear and present escalating danger is already serving to motivate us in powerful ways. Keep up the good work!

Great conversation. Very helpful. Scary, but way less scary when you know that there are competent, intelligent folks on our side. I am about tapped out on paid subscriptions, but does it help people like Katie if we subscribe as a non-paid memeber?

Good Evening Simon, I know you are with your Wednesday night family. I just wanted to say, I loved the Video of You and Katie Phang. Great Conversation. She has so much energy, and I hope She will be able to take on Todd Blanche and his Lawlessness!!

Excellent, illuminating talk with Katie, Simon, thank you both so much!! And tonight's subscriber talk was inspired and inspiring. The Callais decision could've been reason to feel massively defeated, but you framed it in such a way as to make us feel hopeful, that Dems are already laying the groundwork in many more states, that we have to be competitive even against the odds...it was brilliant and timely and purposeful. Thank you so much.

Also, your whole sidebar on the Southern Strategy of the '60s was fascinating, and I wish it could be transcribed somewhere. The fact that Roberts, Barrett, and Kavanaugh were all lawyers in FL fighting for Bush to be handed the presidency by that 5-4 decision in 2000, well that was news to me. The level of corruption in this Roberts court is even deeper than I'd thought. "Venal and malevolent...with a pleasant face" I believe was your approximate descriptor of Roberts? Totally accurate, and I hope history tells the truth about him and his cohorts.

You're the best, Simon. Thank you for your tireless devotion to the cause. 💙

It was news to me as well about Roberts, Barrett and Kavanaugh. And brings home how important this fight for our democracy is. It's really been going on for many years, but I certainly didn't know it and I think most other people didn't either.

There is simply so much we don't know, and the more I learn, the more I realize how calculated, long-planned, and interwoven all this corruption has been. Far, far beyond my comprehension; but of course, I didn't study this in school and I don't work in politics. Simon has a huge knowledge base, and I could listen to and learn from him for hours...but he's busy helping us win elections, the most important task. Historical understanding will have to wait. 🙏

What about challenging Blanche's and Bondi's law licenses through their respective Bar Associations? Can't anyone file for their disbarment? https://substack.com/home/post/p-195042922

Excellent guest tonight, Simon. Katie is fierce and smart as heck. Thank you so much for all your hard work.

If we win both houses of Congress by large enough margins can they pass new voting rights legislation to nullify the egregious rulings of the Supreme Court?

Barbara Greer's avatar

Katie Phang is a national treasure. Thanks so much for this interview, Simon. I just donated to the Georgia supreme court judge candidates.

Kate Feldman's avatar

Barbara. Where do you donate? Can I do it through Hopium or just through their websites?

Barbara Greer's avatar

You can do it through Hopium. At the end of Simon's daily essay here on the Hopium Chronicles he has a section that exhorts everyone to "get to work"! Read through there and he will tell you about all the candidates we are supporting, including the Georgia judge candidates and it will have a link directly to Act Blue through Hopium. Then you will be part of the totals Simon cites for our candidates. You could also do it through each candidate's websites if you prefer but this is easy and accrues to what Hopium is doing.

Thank you! Got it and did it. 🤪

I would not be surprised if Blanche eventually facilitates the pardon of Maxwell.
