Burg Resist:

Today our Democracy is under attack from a Fascist authoritarian regime that pisses on our Constitution and shreds the Bill of Rights. It is our sacred duty to defend our Constitution.

It’s time to stand up for our brothers and sister. They are hurting today. They have been murdered, beaten, kidnapped, and lied to by a cruel, sadistic, and corrupt administration.

It’s time to educate, agitate, and organize. It’s time to resist.

Defend Democracy. Mobilize the vote.

Join us on October 3rd, 12:00 p.m. at the Johnson County Courthouse.

Defend Democracy. Mobilize the vote.

On Saturday afternoon Representative Emanuel Cleaver (D) and Trudy Busch Valentine (D) spoke at a get out the vote rally outdoors at the Clay County Democratic Party headquarters in Gladstone, Missouri. This was the third or fourth campaign appearance of the day for Trudy Busch Valentine in the Kansas City metro area

Teamsters!

Yes, it was a union crowd.

Trudy Busch Valentine (D).

The elephant in the womb:

A significant number of women in attendance were wearing progressive and pro-choice tee shirts.

This candidate is enjoying the experience:

Both Representative Cleaver and Busch Valentine spoke at the rally.

Rep. Emanuel Cleaver (D).

As in all of her campaign events, people in the crowd waited after its conclusion to speak with and personally greet Trudy Busch Valentine.

A number of women hugged her.

It’s retail politics. This grassroots politicking clearly energizes the candidate and her campaign.

Somebody should give Eric Schmitt (r) a hug.

…This election is about an individual’s access to health care and their bodily autonomy. Yes, abortion is a personal choice. It’s about access to public education. It’s about access to good jobs and a living wage. It’s about access to affordable housing. It’s about the future of Social Security and Medicare and the ability of our citizens to spend their later years living with some measure of dignity and comfort… And it’s about cutting the cost of essential medication for those who need it to survive. It’s about the survival of Democracy and the ability of people to participate with their vote. It’s for the future.

Today at the Missouri Ethics Commission:

C190869 12/20/2019 Vote 2020 Way to Win Action Fund 340 S Lemon Ave #1940 Walnut CA 91789 12/20/2019 $100,000.00

[emphasis added]

And what do they want to support?:

The Way to Win strategy advocates for progressive public policy and supports candidates who reflect the values and demographics of their communities. Way to Win supports independent organizations who work to elect such candidates and hold them accountable once in office…

Vote 2020
A stronger democracy depends on a system that makes it easier to vote. In Missouri, it is unnecessarily difficult to cast a vote except on election day which negatively impacts working class communities. We believe our power can be realized if we implement structures that encourage more democratic participation. For that reason, Action St. Louis is leading the effort to strengthen our access to elections. The Vote 2020 ballot initiatives seeks to add:
● Automatic voter registration
● No-excuse absentee voting
● Extended weekday and weekend hours for in-person early voting
● Advance voting by mail
● Moving the voter registration deadline to 14 days from Election Day

GOTV. One of many antidotes to suppression.

Vote.

A little after 6:00 a.m.:

The Coordinated Campaign field office in Warrensburg, Missouri – November 6, 2018.

“…But if you think we’re right and you won’t speak up because you can’t be bothered, then God, Jed, I don’t even want to know you…” – Dolores Landingham – “Two Cathedrals” – The West Wing (2001)

There’s an election today. Do you have a voting plan? Where? When? And do you know what you need?

Talk to your family, friends and neighbors. Get them to commit to voting. Drag them to the polls if you have to.

Vote.

If you know it’s important that you vote and you won’t because you can’t be bothered or because it’s too inconvenient or you have something else to do, then God, I don’t even want to know you…
