Hey, here’s some ideas about how to address this:

1. Elect @ewarren

2. Flip the Senate

3. Build a cabinet (including for a new agency’s redress systemic racism and bias) filled to the brim with the best minds of this gen

4. Listen to them

5. Legislate their recs into law
6. Also: Reparations

7. Also: Free universal healthcare

8. Also: Free higher education

9. Also: enforcement of equal pay laws

10. Also: paper ballots and Election Day as a holiday

11. Also: social safety nets across the board

12. Also: the abolition of ICE
13. Also: no incarceration of immigrants

14. Also: a rebuilt DOJ

15. Also: a structured rebooted review of all of Trump’s judicial noms (it could be done)

16. An end to mass incarceration.

These are just for starters, but let me say this:
We put human beings on the moon.

We can heal the rot at the foundations of this country.

It takes, in my opinion, only three things: courage, honesty, and will.

The q that remains is this: will we who have those things allow this nation to end?
Or do we care enough to try to save it?

That’s at the root of it all.
