We need more strong Black women like her, Stacy Abrams, and Angela Alsobrooks. They are the future of the Democratic Party! Let’s go Mighty Mayor Meidas!

Lala Smith's avatar

Mayor Pete. Paul Krugman. Heather Cox Richardson. AOC. Jasmine Crockett. Elizabeth Warren. So many voices, so many choices. Keep doing what you're doing: amplify amplify amplify!

Lady Emsworth's avatar

Elizabeth Warren is great - and she doesn't get enough air time from the mainstream media. . . too honest, I guess.

Mary L Smith's avatar

Adam Schiff, Jasmine Crockett and I'm a big fan of Maxwell Frost. He is also a future Democratic star and we should help him on his path to help save our democracy with Meidas Touch.

Barbara Gierzak's avatar

President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama, please!

Pamela Beckford's avatar

Chris Murphy. Jasmine Crockett. Kamala Harris. Pete Buttigieg. Norm Eisen. To name a few.

Pamela Beckford's avatar

Also Gavin Newsom, Josh Shapiro, Gretchen Witmer, Gov Pritzker or anyone else who is a likely 2028 candidate.

Definitely Dan Rather. He is a voice of Democracy. I have been a subscriber to “Steady” for several years now.

How about D. Earl Stephenson and Scott Dworkin? I also subscribe to their Substacks. Scott is working hard in the resistance and he has gotten a great many people involved.

Must be an old person. Me too. One of the finest newsmen in our history, railroaded out by Bush, Jr.

virginia arthur's avatar

I prefer Boomer to “old person.”

Paula Dean's avatar

It seems to me that us Boomers are the majority here on Substack. We got fed up with social media and found our way here...in my case, following those we met on Facebook, like Robert Reich, and were glad to have a new way to hear from them after abandoning the places overrun with MAGA. I was thrilled to discover all the 'wicked smaht' authors here, and less of the 'popularity contest'.

Ever since I got my own PC at my age of 24 in 2000 on I've subscribed to all Democratic mailing lists and have been an online Democratic Activist 'cause as a refugee and Legal Permanent Resident that was the only single way I could act. Before that I started in the local libraries in Pittsburgh, PA. As a result, I'm really exhausted of this never-ending pernicious feedback loop of Democrats keep co-depending on and dreading tRumputinist-cult of death. Yet I STILL must fight together with You.... Would so much want all genuinely NONtRumputinist and better yet ANTItRumputinist Americans and such people of the world would be much, much more powerful 'cause this is an extremely heavy burden dumped on our ailing shoulders. My spirit is youthful like of a teenager but my organism is already so ailing like I'm 100 years old.

So I can only keep repeating - I can only keep repeating infinitely - ALL NONTRUMPUTINIST AND BETTER YET ANTITRUMPUTINIST, ANTIEVILONMUSK, ANTIJDVANCE MEDIA AND INFLUENCERS, FROM THE MTN, RAW STORY AND DAILY KOS TO MSNBC!! AND EVERYTHING IN BETWEEN AND BEYOND - MUST BE CONCRETE-STRONG UNITED AND CONVERGED IN THE ANTITRUMPUTINIST, ANTIEVILONMUSK, ANTIJDVANCE FRONT FOR DEMOCRACY AND PROGRESSIVE LIBERATION OF AMERICA AND THE WORLD!! I REPEAT - THE CONCRETE-STRONG UNITED AND CONVERGED IN THE ANTITRUMPUTINIST, ANTIEVILONMUSK, ANTIJDVANCE FRONT FOR DEMOCRACY AND PROGRESSIVE LIBERATION OF AMERICA AND THE WORLD MUST BE FORMED!!

OUR SOCIAL-LIBERAL MINDSET MUST BE UNAPOLOGETIC AND UNABASHED!!

OUR SOCIAL-LIBERAL PRINCIPLES AND PRACTICES ARE - NEVER BE TOLERANT TO/OF THE INTOLERANTS!!

OUR SOCIAL-LIBERAL MOTTO IS - DO NOT TREAD ON US!! (which tRumputinist neo-nazi-fascist terrorists "teaparty-magats" had hijacked from us with their venomous snakes).

OUR SOCIAL-LIBERAL ATTITUDE IS - FIGHT BACK THE ANTIDEMOCRATS-AUTOCRATS-TOTALITARIANS-AUTHORITARIANS TARGETED WITH ALL AND EVERY MEANS UNAPOLOGETICALLY, UNABASHEDLY, UNRELENTINGLY AND UNWAVERINGLY!!

I agree. I like it much better here.

Just watched Mary Trump's podcast and she is great!! If you want to piss off Donnie this would be a great way. Not to mention helping Mary out on her network. This girl is smart, funny and most of all despises her uncle!! I would love to see the two of you together!!

Joyce's avatar

Yes! I’ve been subscribing for months to Mary’s Substack and her live podcasts. She’s brilliant and as a member of the Trump family she knows the scary background.

ABNER522's avatar

I have too! I especially loved her story about Christmas with the Trumps. Her stories and takes on Donnie are hilarious!! I still can't believe she is related to that creature!!

Agitatocrat's avatar

Her books are excellent, too.

Paula Dean's avatar

And best of all, she's a professional psychologist! (Gee, I wonder why?)

Mike Hammer's avatar

Anyone but Joe and Mika.

maxgal's avatar

Especially since Joe can't seem to STFU to let anyone else get a complete sentence out.

Mack's avatar

Also NOT Hillary Clinton

MM Harris's avatar

I dunno; why not? She was dead-on RIGHT about everything she said about djt and putin!

Val's avatar

I think Trmp would absolutely hate it if she was interviewed. :D

Barbara Gierzak's avatar

Rep. Jasmine Crockett, please!

Justin's avatar

Lawrence O’Donnell, Maddow, George Conway

Barbara Gierzak's avatar

Prof. Robert Reich, please!

Christine Bullen's avatar

Yes Robert Reich would be excellent

Paula Dean's avatar

RR is my political guru. BTC of No Lie on YouTube is my favorite video source of information. For my sanity's survival, I depend on Andy Borowitz and Jeff Tiedrich.

Keith Olson's avatar

A real president, Joe Biden, and ask him what he thinks about what the traitor party is doing to America.

Paula Dean's avatar

We should be showing him our gratitude and appreciation every day. 💔

Vel Santic's avatar

Yes. But as of nov 6th 2024 on he let me very much down - how could he transfer the power to the quisling traitor terrorist tRumputin&his cabal of psychopaths, is totally dumbstrucking to me.

T Allen's avatar

Biden didn't let us down. Too many ignorant people didn't vote or voted for an unelectable 3rd party candidate.

Vel Santic's avatar

Biden didn't let us down prior to the nov 6th 2024 but as of that day on - most unfortunately, he did - by bending down to the criminal, felon, rapist, terrorist, traitor tRumputin-his-eVIlonmusk! Biden knew full well that he should NOT have transferred his power to such criminals and quislings! Biden should've heeded what the forensic experts of elections such as Greg Palast, Stephen Spoonamore, SmartElections.us, Dire Talks etc... were telling him about the nov 5th 2024 "results"!

T Allen's avatar

Sorry I disagree. The people chose Trump and Biden transferred power as per the Constitution. Biden will go down in history as a Great President and eventually, when we get our Democracy back, the people will have learned a painful but important lesson. Voting matters and it’s everyone’s responsibility to be educated on policies and maintain the Republic. Biden would be no better than Trump otherwise.

I'd love to see Joe inteviewed now that the dust has settled a bit for him.

Jacki Fromme's avatar

Congrats on your new role. You are our new mayor, I find it to be perfect💙

Joyce's avatar

Deb Haaland would be good to hear from
