Now, it's also the case that of the things you can do—still quite a bit!—HR1 doesn't do some of it and does others poorly (and/or in a way that might not withstand legal scrutiny), while also doing a bunch of other stuff that's fairly tangential to the current crisis. — PolitiTweet.org

This (gated) Yglesias post from yesterday gets at a sobering point: the threats to democracy are quite serious, but there's only so much you can do with federal legislation when some of the threats come from, say, heavily gerrymandered state legislatures. https://t.co/6QaQdOLVzj https://t.co/eieQ2PKwFf — PolitiTweet.org

I'd also note Yglesias's point about mass mobilization and protest. Now, maybe it arrives spontaneously if/when the GOP actually does try to subvert an election result. Maybe! But, IDK, I feel like I should be reading more about on-the-ground organizing preparing for that. — PolitiTweet.org
