... I will do whatever is necessary. I'll be in the streets, I'll be protesting. If ICE shows up - I'll be there, I will offer sanctuary in my home ... what are your plans? At some point we just have to stop waiting for "Godot".

The "Sound of Silence" from leaders is going to get us all killed.

Only a handful have spoken up to unconstitutional threats and lies.
They include Senators Sanders and Warren and Governor Pritzker.
Governor Newsom is about 90% there.

The other "leaders"?
NADA, ZILCH, ZIP, NIL, BUPKIS, RIEN

A grassroots revolution is needed for the party to win.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?

This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.

As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
