🚨OVERTIME🚨
ICYMI: I was up in Springfield, Ohio, earlier this week, where locals are relieved but clear eyed. If you missed my dispatch in Morning Shots, it’s here. If you missed my video dispatch, you can catch it here.
I’ll have more to report as news happens, but the best place you can donate to help locally there is here, the Haitian Support Center.

It is the democracy and has been for years. It is the Conservative Movement that successfully got the Voting Rights Act gutted by the SC. It is the Conservative Movement that got the justices need to give Trump presidential immunity. It is the Conservative Movement that got the justices the take freedoms from women by theocrats. It is the Conservative Movement that wrote Project 2025. It is the Conservative Movement that has backed the dehumanization of so many different Thems - a basic part of the authoritarian playbook. It is the Conservative Movement that attacks every part of the First Amendment and a bunch of other Amendments. It is the Conservative Movement that has created the kind of country that has given rise to those proud to be Nazis.
It is the democracy that is so very much at risk.
Jim, THANK YOU for the link here to your Insta from Springfield. Hearing what's happening, what people are already experiencing, the tension & anticipation... makes me think of our neighbors across the globe, like being in a big town in Western Ukraine, wondering when the war will come for you. Our sisters & brothers in Springfield wonder when the President of our own country will set his schock troops upon them.
Please keep us up to date when you can. And be careful out there
