Thank you for your leadership and your effort. Your movement was instrumental on limiting the Red Wave and giving President Biden and the Democrats a chance to continue our recovery from the disaster that was Donald J Trump and his Trumplicans. 2023 will be a pivotal year where we will see if the Republicans have anything useful to offer our country. The Actions of the House will show us.
Happy New Year, Michael! On Dec 10 th, I wrote letters to/for prisoners for Amnesty International. I did it at the library. Others joined in. I'm pledging to do this once/month for the coming year. Thanks for the nudge! 💕
Maybe make a social media page for the notes from Red Snake County to grow the Dems.
Then we can see and hear about the crazy GOP plans coming from Trump County. That is how they roll. Then they broadside our campaigns.
Moms 4 Liberty were the force for all those book things this time around. Their website shows us all the counties, where we need to get groups up and running. Where they take the field, we have to take the field!
Dear wonderful Michael, Love your podcasts, BUT that is the most horrible rendition of Auld Lang Syne I've ever heard. It's a hideous insult to a lovely, melancholy song. Being a Democrat doesn't excuse lack of musical taste. If I walked into one of your proposed Dem organizations and heard that music, I'd walk right out. Why don't you try Beethoven or Mozart, or is that too elitist? Paula Miller
Hi, Mike — I’ve been looking for ways to help locals get involved for years. Our small town is unincorporated, governed by a Community Services District led by five elected directors.
For a few years, I wrote reports after the meetings and shared them with like-minded folks. The reports were appreciated, but only a few occasionally attended meetings and spoke.
I changed my strategy and started writing advances for the meetings and distributing them a couple of days before. The advances include brief background on the issues on the agenda, and my take on what’s going on.
One local reporter asked to be on my list, and the advance has alerted her to do a couple of critical stories, from her base at the county seat.
In December, the board held a Closed Session on hiring a new general manager. That’s a subject of public concern, and no reason to hold that discussion away from the public. After that, the board scheduled a special meeting that would be entirely closed to the public. I and the other few regular meeting attenders objected, and the board changed course and cancelled the meeting. That discussion is now on the agenda for a public discussion.
Engagement works. Speaking up matters. It may not produce the results I hope for, but it lets them know someone is watching.
The main newspaper daily, based in the county seat 30 miles away, has been downsized and no longer covers our local government. The three dozen people on my list appreciate my advances but still rarely come to the meetings. I sent your podcast #6 to the list. You encouraged me to keep going. Perhaps your words will inspire them to show up more often. Thanks.

Thank you, Michael Moore, and Happy New Year to you. You bring a smile to my face and hope to my heart.

Democrats Attend: Red Snake School Board

Also, we should have 5-10% of our federal income taxes should be allotted as we choice. We should be given 3 to 4 categories where we want it to go.
Military, education for poverty, etc. Give us a little say so.
Thank you for your leadership Mike! God Bless You!!
Happy New Year, Michael et al! The tide has turned. Blue waves sweep across the land. Goodness and mercy will follow us everywhere.
Smart. I like the badge to say “Democratic Hall Monitor from Hell”
