Hi Friends,

I’m so touched by how many new readers have joined this community. Thank you! Pass it on!

Now in the navigation bar you’ll see two new tabs: Political Events, and Political Resources. Political Events in an interactive calendar two ways: a traditional calendar format, and an events list below. I’ll keep it updated with protest, advocacy, educational, speaker, author, and other cool opportunities. For example, please note that at noon every day this week at the Senate Hart Building (120 Constitution Ave NE, Washington, DC 20002), #SwarmTheSenate will be hosting #Remove45 protests. I’ll be there in a couple days. The group is doing incredible work, and it needs all the support it can get not least because it seems likely that tomorrow (Wednesday), the House will vote to formally send the articles of impeachment to the Senate for a trial. This.is.it! Make your voices heard!

Political Resources will be a landing spot for information about candidates running in local, state, and federal elections, contact information, websites and other resources, and so forth. Please check out both, and let me know what you think.

And as promised, here is my week one compilation of standout reading and cool stuff:

More evidence for impeachment released today.
