We can't give up. Ever. It's been a very long time since Trump descended the escalator. It's that POS will NOT win. I believe that ultimately good triumphs over evil. I am totally exhausted. When I see you, Michael, online, you look totally exhausted, too. But I am still on the lookout for non-voters, and I find them in the younger generations. Regularly. It is inconceivable that so many people aren't registered, or are registered but don't vote. That is what I do. That bastard won't beat me!
As usual well said. As a Mainer and Celtic fan I watched the game. Remarkable. Ending was storybook.
BTW I’m also voting for Graham Platner. Another derelict who has found redemption and is speaking what we all here in Maine feel too. A 4 time combat vet with PTSD and a message to rise up and fight the billionaires, tech moguls who Trump has enabled to steal our country blind.
Maine is making some nation rumbling. Our motto is Dirigo . Just watch us!!!
Thanks for this. The “I’ve had enough” mindset is becoming pervasive, Anger at the blatant anti-American activities of this administration is growing. If We the People can mount an absolutely historic turnout in November then we can begin the process of taking back our country. I think we’re ready.
I just DM’d Michael. I am a coordinator for the Democratic Party for a whole district in Smithtown LI. People are so upset with what is happening they don’t even want to work at the polls and they pay us well. If they won’t do it for money then I’m worried that they won’t vote. As of Saturday I have a 122 hour work week because I must fill all the slots.
I saw a lawn sign that said "Resist" on my way out today. I need that daily reminder and Im in much better shape than the Fuhrer ao I will live to dance on his grave, although it might have to be at sea like OBL.
Go Knicks!!! Go American liberals and progressives
We can't give up the fight for normal and fair Democrat and Republican interactions. It is not over and we will prevail during the midterms and going forward because we will not let evil destroy us and our country .
We will destroy this authoritarian attempt to takeover and destroy our people by getting rid of this horrible regime and Trump
We are definitely in your court, so to speak. A friend of mine described how each morning he wakes up with a feeling of existential dread due to the absolute cluster fuck of this administration and their sycophants in Congress. (Here’s looking at you, Lindsey Graham!). No integrity, no honor, no statesman ship…)
This is one of the best substacks you have ever written and this has to be the best game I have ever seen! I thought they were done early on. Who could imagine a comeback like that? The Knicks showed incredible grit and determination in the face of adversity and showed what can be done when you don’t give up.
Also inspirational, Cherie DeVaux made history as the first woman to train a Kentucky Derby winner in the 152-year history of the race! Her 23-1 underdog horse, Golden Tempo, was ridden by Jose Ortiz. The horse pulled off a stunning "last-to-first" comeback, charging from the back of the pack to take the victory.
A side note is that Jose's brother Irad was riding the favorite Renegade and came in 2nd!
After the race Cherie addressing becoming the first woman trainer in 152 years to win the Derby, said "It doesn't matter, you will fall, you will fail and you just have to keep going."
DeVaux's incredible season did not stop at the Derby. She later made history again by winning the Belmont Stakes, becoming the first female trainer to win multiple Triple Crown races.
These historical wins should inspire the country at a time when we all need to remember to never, ever give up!
Can I hear an Amen? Amen!
AMEN. AMEN.

Way to go, Michael and Joanne! That’s why we’re here.
After a long life of bossy people telling you what to do and go along with the crowd or you’ll pay dearly, the best advice to live by has been:
You must do whatever YOU think is right.

Thank you Michael. There’s only one way, and that is forward.
Absolutely 💯

One word: MIDTERMS!

YESSSSSSS!
💪🏻❤️
We’re not finished yet. Seriously.

VOTE BLUE 💙 💙 💙 💙
A powerful and relevant insight. If the Knicks can do it then America can take back its soul!

You said it, "refuse defeat"! Thank you!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Thanks for the sorely needed pep rally!

We are the strong-willed Thoroughbreds! Quite the handfuls and always ready to kick over the traces.
Take a lesson from the Scots- country unity focused on a football game and support of their country- The Tartan Army
ABSOLUTELY 💯
Michael
This might be your best article yet. I missed the Nick's game but you brought it to life for me. Thank you for that.
I've been in conversations about this very thing even as recently as last night.
Our fire department has a volunteer who failed her EMT test after almost 4 months of study and training while a single parent and working full-time.
But an anonymous donor gave her another chance and she aced it. She didn't give up
This is a perfect message for each of us, the Country and the world.
