Thank you for your inspiring words and support! This constant fight or flight is exhausting and overwhelming, but, you keep us grounded in reality. I can’t thank you enough for it! ✊🏻🌹

I’ve been subscribed to you but recently just became a paid subscriber because you’ve earned my trust over time and honestly, I’m a huge Malcolm Nance fan. I have a question…you want to build your movement just like the many other movements out there. How come you guys don’t ALL communicate between one another so we can start consolidating the smaller movements into one huge one? MeidasTouch has over 5M subscribers due to the prodemocracy message they have brought. Scott Dworkin is an awesome independent journalist. Mary Trump has many followers! There are many independent journalists and historians that have a huge following. Then there is Move On, Indivisible, Next Gen, etc., Marc Elias, ACLU, etc.! Why not get all these pro democracy anti fascist groups to communicate and consolidate into one huge movement?

I agree Laura. I am also a paid sub and I follow many of the same. There is strength in unity. I will always support the people I follow, but as more creators join substack, there are just so many subscribers to go around. Love Lev, Malcolm, Michael Cohen, everyone from MTN and others but I had to go no email. It is overwhelming. ..and that is along with the chats and live feeds.

Thank you, Robin! 🌹

I have so much respect and gratitude for all of these brave and trusted independent journalists, non profits groups, law offices, historians, etc., but, we are spread across all of them and I sincerely believe we need to start consolidating into one or a few big movement(s) where communication and information sharing is easier. I’m on SSDI, and as much as I’d love to be a paid subscriber to many, my financial situation doesn’t allow it!

I feel the same Laura. So many wonderful people. I came here 3 yrs ago when I followed 3 people and had never heard of substack, but now Substack is getting so big. I wish there was a streaming channel like a network, even though I know it is impossible, but I am still so grateful to have the voices here we do. Have a great Sunday.

I feel when I read or hear your post. I am scared, but I get less afraid every day. My husband is a Veteran and this makes him sick to his stomach. Veterans still believe in the Oath they took when they served, This Administration all to Oaths, but obviously have no idea what that means. God bless us all and save Ukraine and America...BOTH ARE IN DEEP TROUBLE, and one man causing it.

Actually, at least 3 prominent, in-our-face men: tRump, Putin and Netanyahu.

I appreciate your honesty and your strength as well as your reminder that it is important; but, not self- indulgent to take care of ones’s self. We are in this for the long haul. It is not enough to win today’s battle with tRUMP and the Republican Cult, We must win the War to Save Our Democracy. Enjoy Sunday everyone!

Lev, thank you for your Sunday message. Love the Mandela quote. I've always admired Congressman John Lewis. I imagine that you have met the man. It would have been great to have a conversation with this man. He could teach us a great deal about courage. Here are a few of my favorites that fit today's message.

"Get in good trouble, necessary trouble, and help redeem the soul of America."

"If you see something that is not right, not fair, not just, you have a moral obligation to do something about it."

"The vote is the most powerful nonviolent tool we have."

"You must be bold, brave, and courageous and find a way... to get in the way."

Thank you Lev! I agree 100%, if we can, we need to be loud, especially for those that can’t due to risk of deportation.

Lev, this morning I read a Raw Story that fully credited your information from your Substack letter. Finally, I thought, finally people will get the truth as it works its way beyond Raw Story.
