Hello from Australia! You won me over with your incisive analysis before the American Mid Terms in 2022. I come from a thriving community of politics bloggers who discuss politics every day online and fret for the future of Democracy. However, we are also active outside of the online world and always looking for strategies we can apply to maintain our Progressive nation going forward into a better future. That's why I will be so interested in following your insights. Happy trails!
A number of years ago I met Denis Ginnivan from Voices for Indi when I was a consultant for Virginia Rural Dems Caucus for their first rural summit. The group from AU was in the DC area and visited. I didn't know much about your politics, it was fascinating! Nice to "meet" you!
Yes, Australia is likely to have one of the most Progressive national governments in the world at the moment. How we keep defying the Reactionary Conservative's attempts at destabilisation via disinformation and the megaphone of our own Murdoch media outlets is of utmost importance and interest to me and many others. hence why I am interested in the output of constructive thinkers.
Love it. Subscribed and will ask my friends to do so. As a grammar nerd, I have to point out that it's "bigger and more effective than it's ever been," not "bigger and more effective then its ever been."
Yes Simon you found us on Substack and we found you everywhere! Along with Robert Hubbell and Jessica Craven, this is and will be a great place to hang out with like-minded folks who want to use their resources to make a real difference. As a thought leader you can help us figure out where best to spend our time and money. As soon as you open up paid subscriptions I will be there. Best of luck with the new venture and so glad to be here.❤️
Simon; I'm super happy to be able to support your project here. You've always been so supportive of our work at the Institute that this, given your plan of action, was simply a "no brainer" for me. My wife and I are pleased to be in the position to invest in this and nudge our colleagues to do the same. I look forward to your commentary, insights, our interactions, and working together for the good of democracy everywhere. Cheers!
PS: "Hopium" deserves some sort of leafy trademarked icon ;-)
Greg thank you and please thank your wife too! Becoming a Founding Member is very generous and has helped make this a very strong first day. Excited for the work ahead, glad you will be along for the ride, again. Best, S
Not familiar with NDN. I'm a New Dealer who believes we need to introduce something like a New Deal or we will go the way of the Austrian, German or Russian empires and collapse into something worse, except this time there will be no liberal democratic power to pull us out like with the first two. I wrote a book about the crisis I believe this poses and have started a substack which discusses this.
I was a county party chair in Arizona during the 2020 and 2022 election cycles. I discovered your work in June of 2022 and it sustained me the next very difficult months. I look forward to following your next chapter and working to spread your good ideas.
Ann congrats on a remarkable two elections in Arizona. Dems are in better shape there now then any time since 1951! Appreciate you stepping up for all of us, and glad you are here for this new exciting project. S
I have been following you since April 2022–and have been sharing your and Tom Bonier’s data/insights, and since November happily sharing all the good news about how #DemsDeliver jobs, growth and progress, in direct contrast to Repubs who only saddle Americans with recessions, deficits, failures and now, fascism.
Welcome Evan!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is great!

Welcome to substack, where we are all getting our minds back!
thanks for all your support Bill!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hey Bill!!! Been awhile.
Love it. Subscribed and will ask my friends to do so. As a grammar nerd, I have to point out that it's "bigger and more effective than it's ever been," not "bigger and more effective then its ever been."
Will fix!

Excited to be here, and ready to get going! Thanks for being part of the early crew! S
Voter registration and engagement by new voters is going to be crucial going forward.

Awesome! Excited to join you on this next venture.
