people are asking, "where do you get your news?" I used to get my news from twitter, because it was the best and fastest place anywhere to get reliable breaking news. that's what makes what Elmo has done to the place that much more heartbreaking

Hi Jeff, most excellent piece today... When I read a piece such as yours I’m always reminded of what Steven 3 shirts Bannon has said on more than few instances...Bannon admires Vlad Lenin for tearing down Russian society at the time of the revolution and after... However what Bannon refuses to quote Lenin I will.. “the last stage of capitalism is fascism” Our country is facing this dilemma and has been for a number of years, it seems to have been accelerated by the Trump and the MAGAS, through the press, ideology and factually on 1-6. Jeff, your writings give inspiration to the very weary defenders of democracy as Ben Franklin said in a reply to the question of “do we have a democracy? Yes, if you can keep it” We are now at the precipice, I’m very concerned we will be not able to keep it. Thanks for what u do speaking for myself and fellow travelers.
