I Love Primaries, but DU? We've got to do more than one thing around here. I'm a citizen and political participant first, partisan second.

The United States is not in a political crisis. We're in a Constitutional Crisis.

This is not about just some partisan men of one branch of our government not honoring what partisan men of another branch of our government want. This isn't about "gaming" justice. This is about Justice itself.

Over the course of two months we've seen what's happening. The Second Branch, the Executive and its Attorney General, is moving to render The First Branch -- The People's Congress -- irrelevant. It has gutted the functionality of our government for The People while global corporate money has captured almost all three branches of government.

The president's and "his" attorney general's refusal to answer questions of the First Branch's constitutional oversight brought us -- US -- to this pass.

1.
DU must make its voice heard.

ASAP. It will take us 15 minutes. I've done it. It can be done. It's what we do.

2.
Call your Congressional Representative, AND Speaker Pelosi and Representative Nadler.

House phone number = [phone]

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi [phone]
Representative Jerold Nadler(202)225-5635

Dial and enter your zip code and you will be connected.

Before calling, type out in advance your key ideas so that they don't sound emotional.
Make your points grounded in the general rights of The People to see justice done with this AG, over the gaming of Justice that this AG and president are making of the Law, the Constitution.

Speak confidently, seriously.

Identify yourself, what state you're from, and that you're a longtime voter.

Say whatever you think is important. I'd strongly urge that you ad that, in the absence of Barr's resignation, The House MUST relentlessly pursue its constitutional duty to send a message to all those in The Executive branch, that those who refuse to honor justice under the law WILL be in legal jeopardy.

However we put it, this Congress must be obeyed in its constitutional duty to represent the will of The People.

3.
If we do nothing, stay in outraged thrall of events we've never before witnessed, we will collectively suffer the First Branch's congressional power collapse before the Second Branch. It has already happened in the Senate.

We will witness the transformation of a Constitutional Democratic Republic into a corporate-military junta dictatorship. Under Trump. No longer a nation of laws, but of men.

We citizens must speak and act by any means necessary. Democratic law must prevail over any dictatorship of men.

We're all in this together. This is not a rehearsal. This is it.

I'm calling first thing tomorrow morning.
