Jess P-S and Harvey Kaye, Professor Emeritus of Democracy and Justice Studies at UWGB, and our favorite Delano Democrat co-host the show today! In the first hour we discussed the vital matter of truth. Now, we turn to the true conflict in our country. It's not a matter of Democrats vs. Republicans. The true conflict comes between We the People and oligarchs. We the People bear rights enshrined in our Declaration of Independence and Constitution of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Oligarchs- those financial megapowers that seek to hoard wealth and power, who FDR called economic royalists- limit democracy. And they form the basis of the 47th President's Cabinet and advisory team. That's a scary thing.



So what can we do? Well, we can resist. We can resist by joining with our communities. Our resistance needs to start at the grassroots, but national organization certainly helps. Check out 50501- 50 states, 50 local organizations, 1 national peaceful movement. We can choose to listen to the voices of our history that proclaimed that We the People are entitled to economic safety, like FDR did in his 1941 and 1944 State of the Union Addresses. And we can choose to follow an alternative national address tonight as our current president speaks to a joint session of Congress. Instead of the pandering to oligarchs, check out 50501's We the People address!
