I don’t want to share the video because I think folks have seen it enough, but the media need to start loudly calling out these Sieg Heil’s for what they are. A Nazi salute. A rallying cry for white supremacists. A hateful, dangerous symbol of a group who killed millions

What to write about to our UK MPs? I think: It’s important we let them know that we, in the peaceful majority, support laws that encourage respect for all humans and against hate speech. What item can you add as a rebuff of the Trump/Vance/Musk encouragement of White Supremacy?

Make your calls. Go to your town halls. Ask your state and local officials what they are doing under state and local law. Rest. Hydrate. Make soup for the hungry. Don’t let people tell you that you’re doing it wrong. Not a sprint. Not a marathon. A relay. Find your team. Thank you.

Incompetence in Washington puts every American at risk, no matter how you voted. No one should be happy that the DOGE team - the same folks who randomly published classified U.S. security information online today - wants access to your bank account & Social Security numbers.

This is a remarkable letter.
And it is worth thinking about its impact on John Roberts. If his clerk demonstrates this level of principle, how can Roberts do any less.
