important story nobody is talking about

John, I want to keep you informed on a story that not enough people are following. In 1993, an attorney named Steven Donziger brought a class-action lawsuit on behalf of poor Amazonian plaintiffs against Texaco for “massive contamination” caused by their oil drilling. The…

FWD: important email from Hank

  Hi John -- I want to make sure you saw this email from Hank. This is a truly troubling time for American democracy, and everyone needs to be in the loop about the unjust behavior happening in the Justice Department. If you've read Hank’s email, make sure you’ve also signed hi…

John, our freedom is at stake:

Hi John. I’m finding it increasingly difficult to deny that our nation is in the grip of a slow-moving coup d’etat and that our very freedom is at stake. Let me get you up to speed: President Trump took the Presidency after encouraging, then accepting and benefiting from Rus…

Teaming up with Elizabeth Warren

John, 36,000 Americans are killed by guns each year -- nearly 1,500 of those in my state of Georgia alone. And my home county of DeKalb has 15 gun deaths for every 100,000 people on average, every year. This is completely unacceptable. Why do we allow this to happen year af…

a sincere email urging John to not give up hope in light of Trump’s acquittal

In his farewell address, former President Barack Obama told us, "For every two steps forward, it often feels we take one step back. But the long sweep of America has been defined by forward motion." John -- there are days like today where it can be very difficult to see that…

Explaining what I decided

John, I want to thank everyone for weighing in on whether or not I should attend the State of the Union (SOTU) tonight. Deciding to not attend the past three presidential addresses before Congress had been easy for me to make, but this year has been different. Should I att…

Should I attend the State of the Union?

John, This Tuesday is the State of the Union (SOTU) address. During normal times, I would consider it my duty to attend and hear the President’s agenda for the upcoming year. Unfortunately, these are not normal times. President Trump has defied Congressional subpoenas, igno…

John, You know my husband, Hank. And like you, I am incredibly proud of everything he has accomplished in Congress these last few months. He has led the charge for impeachment, held Trump’s cronies accountable, but also kept the focus on everyday Americans, too. All this su…

barr has got to go
