11:20:19 From Rebecah P to Everyone:
	Do you believe that our democracy will actually last until the upcoming elections? It already feels like a total dictatorship, and my congresspeople have not reacted at all to me.
11:20:35 From Anthony A to Everyone:

11:28:09 From YoVanna Solomon to Everyone:
	We can continue to win!!
11:32:57 From Anthony A to Everyone:
	We need Strong Democrat candidates to run against these MAGA Republicans, unlike the Senator Fetterman's who are becoming the new MAGA Acolytes like Manchin and Simena.
11:35:48 From Stephanie Wolfe to Everyone:
	Yes Brian! Well said 👏🏻
11:36:12 From Anthony A to Everyone:
	Well said Brian!!
11:37:04 From John E to Everyone:
	I am a long-term member of PP, and I am not going anywhere. :)
11:37:19 From Jane F to Everyone:
	It's so bad that so many do not see the danger and keep holding on to the myths about things Trump is doing. Its like the HS grads who see the wrecked car in the front yard of the school buts till go out drinking. It does not register until a student or other loved one is killed by a drunk driver. But so many will die before the MAGA cult feel the damages and start to pay attention to the evils happening to people, world wide.
11:37:24 From Rebecca Harrington to Everyone:
	thank you, John! we are grateful for you :)
11:37:41 From Rachel H to Everyone:
	I agree with the previous question - instead of republican vs democrat, I think many can simply agree to be anti current administration.
11:39:36 From Teresa F to Everyone:
	We are Americans, not sheep!
11:39:38 From Jane F to Everyone:
	Too many events are not with a long enough lead time to attend. Too many take planning.
11:40:36 From Jane F to Everyone:
	The news media are also under threats and many events are not appearing in local news broadcasts, papers, emails or in social media.
11:42:06 From Anthony A to Everyone:
	Brian, that is called 'avoidance of collateral damage'
11:42:29 From Greg and Becky Z to Everyone:
	The only way to make any progress is to work with independants and moderate Republicans. They do exist Brian, they all don't hold high office right now but that is what we need to change. You cannot win if you only preach to the choir.
11:43:05 From Jane F to Everyone:
	Agreed Greg!
11:43:13 From Lila G to Everyone:
	Wisconsin Sup. Ct. election 4/1. Very important.
11:44:26 From Claire A to Hosts and panelists:
	Yes to Greg.  One thing I am realizing is we really have to reduce extremism on both sides if we want to make any true progress…
11:45:25 From Rebecca Harrington to Everyone:
	@Lila yes! Thanks for lifting this race up
11:46:03 From Claire A to Hosts and panelists:
	That said, Brian seems to be saying they are hard to find (moderates).  Any concrete suggestions appreciated!
