Friend --
"The country needs a big, strong Republican Party. And
I say that as a leader in the Democratic Party..."
Wow. Ok, Speaker Pelosi! Thank you for "saying the quiet part out
loud." You, who have snidely dismissed the Green New Deal, even though
it's our best shot at preserving human civilization, have proudly
proclaimed a desire for "a big, strong, Republican
Party."
What else could we possibly add to that, to make a stronger case
for why this country desperately
needs a big, strong Green Party? Will you give to the Green Party,
today, to help make that happen?
Because Speaker Pelosi has admitted a fundamental, but
rarely-acknowledged truth: Democratic and Republican party leaders
care about preserving their two-party cartel above everything
else. Above defending reproductive rights, above stopping the
wars, above averting climate catastrophe and above winning justice for
everyday people.
What level of contempt must Nancy Pelosi hold for us and our
communities, that she thinks corporations, the 1%, the patriarchy and
the beneficiaries of White Supremacy are
somehow under-represented in our current
politics??
It's stunning! It's infuriating! So turn that anger into action —
into a commitment. Volunteer
for the Green Party. Sign up to
be a Monthly Sustainer.
And if you're ever in doubt, if your resolve ever falters, remember
this: The leader of the Democratic Party in the U.S. House of
Representatives believes the solution to this country's tremendously
undemocratic, corrupt, oligarchic politics is...a stronger
Republican Party.
This political culture is depraved. It is broken. We can change the
system, but not without you. Please
give today!
In Solidarity, The Green Party of the United
States
P.S. Here
is a link to the video of Speaker Pelosi. After watching,
you're going to need a chaser. We recommend this fantastic
interview with Jill Stein on the "Bad Faith Podcast," hosted by
Sanders 2020 Communications Director Briahna Joy
Gray.
