Enjoy your well deserved time off, Simon. When you return, here is a link to an article I found interesting. It might be worth sharing, especially for Georgia folks.

A larger, sobering historical new series on Netflix: “Turning Point: The Cold War and The Bomb”. It is far-reaching and insightful. Happy family time, Rosenbergs!

FYI, Simon, I’m appearing on the Friday Power Lunch Zoom at noon on Mar 29 to talk about our Leaflet Every Doorstep campaign, and I intend to inform folks that it was you who inspired this in early 2023, when you told everyone to Get Loud! Thanks for all you do! You deserve a break!

Enjoy your time off with your family. I just spent a few days in Arizona with my family and it was great! In the decades my brother has lived here, I've seen the state go from Gov. Jan Brewer to Gov. Katie Hobbs so it's moving in a good direction and electing Ruben Gallego, flipping some Congressional seats and the state legislature (while voting for Joe Biden again) will help move it even farther in a good direction.

It’s spring break for lots of folks—but we who are part of the grassroots, especially those who’ve being doing work back to 2017 (you know who you are), sometimes forget that we are stronger when we rest and recharge.

We should all recognize that the fight for progress, democracy and freedoms is neither a sprint nor a marathon—it is a relay, where it’s not only how we run our lap/s, but how well we take and make the handoff to our team that will decide the result.

So get out, take a deep breath and smell the flowers!

Enjoy your well-earned time with family.

Speaking of the way-back machine, I heard your interview with Lucas Kunce (MO, running against the execrable Josh Hawley) from last summer on the Deep State Radio podcast this morning.

I would love to hear whether you think Lucas has a chance and should be supported. I wish it so badly that I can't trust my judgment. One advantage I think he has is that so many Missourians have voted for Democrats in the recent past, so it's not anathema to them the way it can be to lifelong Republicans. Hawley is actually creepy and weird. He gave the white supremacy fist to the Jan. 6 insurrectionists. His wife was instrumental in the lawsuit to ban medication abortions using mifepristone, which is coming before SCOTUS very soon.

I remember 2008, when one of Obama's very last campaign stops was in my Missouri hometown, because it was a swing state. What a steady downfall since then.

Enjoy some down time Simon. You work like hell here for us, and I appreciate it. Also, I loved the interview with Rueben you just did. I have now donated to his campaign twice. He’s such a great advocate for our party.

Simon wtf is with NBC hiring Ronna Romney? How do we push back against CBS, NBC, ABC, CNN, etc? They’re a huge threat to our democracy.
