Living History

Folks,

Today we’re living history with Joe Walsh—-Tea Party congressman to Never Trump activist, to an card carrying Democrat!!

I’m excited to announce that last week Joe decided to put a ring on it and officially become a Democrat.

And here is one thing that makes him a fairly unique Democrat, the very kind we desperately need: he’s a fighter.

I hope you’ll agree with me, these the days for heroes and I for one and ecstatic to add Joe and his arsenal of rhetorical weapons to the party.

In fact, I welcome everyone to go read through some of the content on Joe’s Substack The Social Contract with Joe Walsh.

The Republican Party’s propaganda machine has done an excellent job of defining democrats, a party dominated by moderates, as a party of extremists.

There is nothing more extreme than pretending an election was stolen and then trying to sick a mob on the Capitol to violently seize power after his party-wide coup plan failed.

Now, if you are member of Joe’s audience, and not mine, I am a former political scientist turned political analyst/strategist who has devoted her entire life to trying to get Democrats to make electoral war, not love. You can check out my work and order by book at here.

Ok, back to this Living History episode. Living History is based on the idea that the present now will later be past. Future historians will be writing books about what we’re living through RIGHT NOW. So its important to both record and make history ourselves right now.

When the books get written about America in the early 21st century, lets make sure the books are about the true Patriots who stood up to stop fascism.
