Tarnport<p>Strange days when I'm unsubscribing from constant dem fundraisers one after the other, and at the same time Liz Cheney and David Brooks are both calling loudly for mass civil action with plans I can rally behind.

DoNotPunchDown<p>I believe that the only thing that will work, short of revolution, is a general strike. Money is all they care about. I believe protests are important. If nothing else, they are a great way to know we're not alone and that we're fighting together for the same thing.</p><p>I implore you to go to the website <a href="https://generalstrikeus.com/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">generalstrikeus.com/</span><span class="invisible"></span></a> and read about how this works.
