Thank you, Greg, for this excellent post and all your efforts to help "save our democracy". You and Heather Cox Richardson are my absolute must reads, and I try to keep up with a few others. I always love hearing from other commenters to your posts. You all add a lot to my perspective, so thank you to all of you as well.

For those who asked in your last post how to contribute more to you, or change the amount to more than $5/mo:

- go to the down arrow at the upper right hand corner of any of Greg's posts

- click on it, and click on "my account"

- find "plan" and click on the "change" link in parentheses following that.

- that should do it; if you don't already contribute, this won't work until you are a contributor, but I

think you have all the same options when you initially become a contributor

The one thing I wish Substack would change is an option to allow an occasional extra donation. I would be inspired to do so quite often for your amazing posts, Greg, so maybe you could suggest that to them.

Finally, I'd like to add that I'm looking forward to some transcripts as well for your podcasts. I'm someone who has hearing loss issues in both of my ears. I also do not have unlimited data internet service (I live in the middle of nowhere in Upstate NY/ADKs), so things like podcasts and videos eat up a lot of data. But I read everything you post, and follow you and LB on Twitter pretty closely. You are so right - this is a "narrative war", and we must "PREVAIL". Your links and suggestions on how to do our part are much appreciated. Thank you again. Heidi

When I was on Twitter I re-tweeted your article about Paul Ryan and the rest of the Republicans caught on tape laughing about Russian interference in the 2016 election. I suggested they all hang for treason. Needless to say that was my last day on Twitter. I recently read Kurt Anderson’s book ‘Evil Geniuses” which lays out the fifty year plan of the right. Which I pray is finally fraying at the edges. My friends are completely shocked when I tell them the top tax rate in the United States in 1980,the year I graduated from high school, was 70 percent. Under Eisenhower it was 90 percent. If we really want to make America great tax the oligarchs like Eisenhower did. Thanks for all your good work Greg.
