Thank you to everyone who showed up to meet Paul Mason at our Speakeasy today. Wow! You all made me look so good with your smart questions, and supportive responses. For those who were unable to attend, I will be writing up a summary of Paul’s brilliant talk. He literally wrote the book on how to stop fascism, and we can deploy his teachings as we did with the teachings of David Pepper, which we turned into action to winning effect in Ohio. RadPod interviewed David Pepper today on what we did right, and where we go from here so look for that to drop asap.

Please register for Tuesday’s Happy Hour and do note, we are expecting Georgia indictments on Tuesday so we will either have a second impromptu Happy Hour with Martin Sheil to walk us through the RICO details, or maybe the news will break during our hour, in which case Marty will join us. Look for email/s on that day to instruct if there are breakers.

Looking forward to seeing many of you in the squares, and just a reminder, each week we alternate the time so as many people from around the world can checkin. Our Happy Hour time is noon pm PT, which is 3 pm New York time.

Although the Happy Hour was inspired as a wellness check, where we each offer suggestions of how we stay well during trouble times, it’s okay that we also chat about breakers and fears. That’s part of how of we do this as a community — empathy, listening, sharing.

I’ll likely be filing American Monster 5 late tonight and as a reward, I’ll be star gazing at 2 am because the Perseid Meteor Shower is supposed to peak tonight, a reminder that we are all made of stardust.

Don’t forget to register <3
