Those who want to minimize attacks on democracy keep pointing out we’re a republic.
Of course we’re a republic. And we’re also a democracy. We are a constitutional republic and a representative democracy.
It’s kind of like saying we have doors and we have windows too.
I keep thinking about how Hitler said, late in the war, that "the only way they could have stopped us was if they had come at us early, swift, and hard."
Officialdom pussyfooted around and that was a big, big mistake.
I fantasized Howard or Jeff coming out of their penthouses today and saying to union workers gathered below, "You know, guys. I've thought about it. You're right."

I was at the @AmazonLabor Labor Day Rally today. I wouldn’t have wanted to be anywhere else.
A good day to think about the history of labor and honor the struggles of past generations.
Also a good day to celebrate a new generation that’s discovering its power.
