As he has done since his War Room & DLC days, Simon shines a spotlight on the pernicious authoritarianism that threatens democracy as never before in American history. His post-NDN voice inspires the true patriots who sign up, speak out, protest, boycott, post card write, door knock, donate in support of ideals and candidates who are the essence of freedom. Fight on!
Bravo on citing Timothy Snyder...he is one of the superior historians helping us through this turbulent time. I love your pictures...all are so truly representative of the not-obeying-in-advance concept. thank you
Toward the end of my shift Sunday phonebanking for Judge Janet, I had an experience that was both wrenching and beautiful. I was crying.
The person I called was extremely angry in the beginning, saying that she would vote for the Republican because she was so mad at the Democrats "for doing nothing for people who look like me." (Black)
After a long conversation, very intense and deep, she ended up saying "If youre the kind of person who's supporting Janet, I'll vote for her. I'll put it on my social media and tell my family."

Scrolling through my FB posts, this voter will find my posts of With Dems and other Simon items. I wonder how she'll feel...
I’m new to your Substack page. I’ve done postcards for Judge Janet and other over the years. The HubDialer platform is an awesome phone campaign tool. I hope it will become a tool for the 2024 campaign.
Democrats must become more active in the process. I’ve made that my focus for 2024, getting every Democrat and Independent I know to become active in whatever way they can. Thank you for the information you provide.
Excellent piece, thanks. One note: in paragraph 3, we're getting more votes for Judge Janet, not Judge Judy, but the hardest part of writing the postcards was not making that mistake.
Let’s make not obeying in advance our “new normal”

Thank you for the list of what is not obeying that applies to this group-postcards, phone banking, donations etc.
I often feel like I can’t do enough, but then I see a list like that and see I am doing a lot from my desk, keyboard and phone.
I feel less defeated-more hopeful

In the 1980s I lived in Germany. I studied history. I understand how what happened in that country. In 2016 I saw what was coming in the US.
Greater civic engagement is required to fend off fascism.
Thank GOODNESS for Simon Rosenberg and Heather Cox Richardson and Joyce Vance and the millions more who are now politically active compared to 2015.
Great message Simon and we need to be reminded often. Thank you for what you do and see you soon at Thursday’s Zoom ❤️
In Wisconsin it's Judge Janet, not Judy. Thank you for all the coverage of this important election..

This is a powerful concept-a mantra even.
Thank you! It feels hopeless in Nashville lately, but we’re not giving up.
