Thanks, Greg.

Love your newseleter! I started DemLabs (a nonprofit) in 2017 after the Trump election. I now (pro bono) apply my skills from Silicon Valley to social justice and voting rights causes. I use readily available and mostly free apps to make complex issues easier to understand with maps, infographics, AI, audio books and videos. There are now over 1,200 stories on our website at https://thedemlabs.org/blog/ and a new one being added every day.

I think the bad guys intentionally make things confusing and hope that busy people do not have time to connect the dots and see how they are being exploited. I like your newsletter (also Heather Richardson, Thom Hartmann and others). I'll take a current issue and try to express it visually. Make it interactive and in some cases convert it into audio form, in different languages. The goal being to take important info and make it available to more people in a form that they can consume on the go and explore as they want.

My favorite is 'Follow The Money' stories which show how dark money is corrupting our democracy. Like today's blog about billionaire-corrupted abortion decisions.

Glad to help (pro bono) on important issues. Your readers can also email suggestions on a topics worth covering visually in this way at info@thedemlabs.org

Thank you!
