Rebecca Traistor on Chris Hayes right now [View all]

Making the point that ordinary people are out there risking their livelihoods and freedom to stand up to this administration. It is not their "day job", but it is the Democratic leadership's day job.

That's what is so infuriating. And although I sympathize and agree with people who are calling on ordinary people to make their voices heard, they have been. And they are risking a lot when this administration would love nothing better than to put them in jail.

They shouldn't have the entire burden placed on them. It's dangerous
and unfair. Democratic leaders need to back them up in every way possible. It is NOT too much to ask.
