18. I think that our political history is very important.

It helps us understand how events in the past made things the way they are today. With lessons from the past, we not only learn about ourselves and how we came to be, but also develop the ability to avoid mistakes and create a better future.

I agree the next election is the most important one and based on the clear evidence of the last few years alone it is clear that out Democracy is under a real threat.

We do have momentum because Biden has had a amazingly successful 2 years legislatively and the economy remains strong but we do have headwinds because of inflation and interest rate increases. So there is a real chance that we could have a recession so it is really important for everyone to understand the real importance of not falling lies and deceit of the GOP.

We will be living with this SCOTUS mess for decades and it's time for us to take maintain control of the POTUS and take back the House in order to stop this madness. History tells us the consequences of failure are dire.
