    The SCOTUS will not save us. We need to vote.

    Don’t count on anyone else to bail us out.

    The only way to save democracy is to get voters to the polls. “Hoping” won’t work. Expecting SCOTUS, Norms, Guardrails, etc is going to fail. If you want democracy to continue, vote, get your friends to vote, run for local office, get anyone and everyone you know to go vote - even if you’re in a solid blue area.

    Nothing is coming to save us.

      The only way to save democracy is to get voters to the polls.

      The start of saving democracy is getting voters to the polls. It’s increasingly clear that that won’t be the only thing we have to be prepared to do, though.
