A daily series, Connect! Unite! Act! seeks to create face-to-face networks in each congressional district. Groups regularly socialize but also get out the vote, support candidates and engage in other local political actions that help our progressive movement grow and exert influence on the powers-that-be. Visit us at Daily Kos every morning at 7:30 A.M. Pacific Time to see how you can get involved. The comment thread is fun and light-hearted, but we're serious about moving the progressive political agenda forward.
If you are new to the site or have been lurking, we invite you to join in the friendly banter here. Don’t be shy, say anything, it will be well received.
The Trump-Russia scandal is shaping up to be the story of the century. Maybe even bigger than that. Now is the time for all good Kossacks to join or at least follow the group Trump Russia Investigators. You can follow at that link. If you would like to join, just shoot me a kosmail and I will bring you aboard.
It’s just taking way too long, IMO. Trump has now ostensibly been the most powerful person on Earth for an entire six months! We are lucky that he has not yet found a way to launch a war or something else horrible to distract from the Russia story. But time is running out!
Please join or follow. Won’t it be cool to be able to tell your grandkids that you were a Daily Kos Trump Russia Investigator™? Okay, maybe not (LoL) but please do it anyway.
I am going to tag along with Bill Maher and say that Trump will be gone by Christmas.
What about you?
When do you think Trump will have to step down?
Our CUA team is here to provide support and guidance to new and existing volunteer leaders of each regional and state group, helping them with recruiting, organizing and executing social and action events. We invite you to join in this effort to build our community. There are many ways to pitch in. If there isn't a group to join near you, please start one.
View Interactive Map of Daily Kos Communities in a full screen mode. The orange pinpoints are the location of each organized group of Daily Kos readers. If you'd like to join a group, click on a point and a box will pop up showing contact links. If you'd like to start a group, kosmail navajo for instructions.
