1/ Throughout my campaign I argued that large groups of desperate people should be seen as a national security risk. That desperate people do desperate things. That they form a petri dish out of which violent eruption is almost inevitable

2/ When I argued that, I’d say it was true whether in a far-off corner of the world or in a corner of a US city. What’s changed now is that this isn’t about a corner anywhere anymore. The entirety of the country is now saturated with an unsustainable amount of untended to despair

3/ Our political establishment is an inadequate container for the legitimate frustration and rage that is rising up from the bottom of things. It must become that now - very quickly - or the rage will spill over into the streets in a way the system cannot contain.

And sadly, certain kinds of people in power will intentionally create conditions of desperation in order to create chaos and seize even more power- even perhaps suggesting elections be canceled.

We are giving them multiple ways to stop this from happening..... both parties have declared war on the American people. It's like being a latch key kid all over again

Oh I hope it does. Spill over. I don’t see any other way to change. Working people have fought this battle for a hundred years. No more adjustments. We must break the system and rebuild foundation up. But who can we trust to do that?
