      Anyone who cares about American progressive politics should be devoting their main energy to health care right now:https://twitter.com/ezralevin/status/874272379681243136 …

      The Russia stuff is also important but it's not actually policy nor is is susceptible to popular pressure the way health care is.

      Russia story is really in the hands of the IC & law enforcement. If Trump tries to stonewall, there's room for popular protest.

      But as of right now, looks like IC & law enforcement (backed by Dems & some GOP in congress) is on top of the Russia story.

      The health care thing, by contrast, is unfolding now, what the GOP is doing is scandalous & popular protest can have an impact.

          Russia may lead nowhere or take forever to see effect. Healthcare would affect millions right now!

          Does it have to be either/or? I have plenty of energy, anger and motivation for both.
