One more time please for the senior in the back, what was the author’s name for the book you mentioned - Recoding America? Thank you. My local Dem office needs this info.

Would you say, in general, that Dems need to make much better/more frequent use of social media for visibility and messaging? I like this added format of a Zoom interview…

Absolutely. We have to meet voters where they are.

Dems need to govern better in blues states and cities, a good message. A very refreshing podcast. Thank you.

"ZACH: Last week, when the orders start coming out of Washington, DC — the Trump folks are freezing foreign aid, federal grants, loans, NIH grant review panels — I put out a bunch of videos on social media, several different posts on all different platforms: Hey, send me your stories if you’re working in an office that's being affected. "

The North Yuba Project is a key project of the Biden US Forest Service, with logging boots on the ground for a full-watershed forests-health thinning project, signed off by our friends and neighbors the Nisanen. The South Yuba River Citizens League, of Nevada City, acts as the general contractor. They cut the checks to the logging contractors, some actually unionized, others payed prevailing wage.

Everything about this Project makes it a target for the nihilist gang. We need help.

I'm an old Berkeley Radical who instigated the Sierra County Supervisors' resolutions that launched the current Brown/Newsom forests policy. But since I'm from Loyalton, and talk like a logger (Wobbly!) I'm wunna' them inside agitators and instigators you don't hear so much tell of.
