Democrats gave us Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, and the ACA. Republicans gave us the Great Depression, the Great Recession, the Jan 6 terrorist attack, and people dying of measles.

That's the weekly email my Indivisible group sends out every weekend. We put it together so it can be edited and published over the weekend, and it goes out every Tuesday.

Right now, we don't have that many active writers, so it'll just be three asks per week. But that's for now. By early next year, I expect we'll expand to four or even a full five weekday asks, leading up to the November midterm elections. I'm hoping we have a few more writers by then, but by Jove if it's left mostly to me, I'm still gonna make it happen that way. I suspect there will be TONS of material to work with by then.

Good for you doing a newsletter. The writing communities seem tight as communities go. Enjoy your newsletter.
