PBS's Brooks Commends Kamala Harris's Colbert Interview: 'Why Haven't People Reached Out?' EXCERPT: BROOKS: "The system for governors isn't flawed; many are performing excellently nationwide. While federal politics has its issues, pursuing a gubernatorial role could be a meaningful way to serve. Of course, that's her decision. I resonated with her point on capitulation. It's surprising that in Israel, prior to October 7, when Netanyahu attempted judicial reforms, mass protests persisted for months. Similar patterns happen globally: efforts to concentrate power often spark public uprisings. Yet, why haven't citizens risen up here?

Trump exploits divisions, but the real power lies in unified civic resistance, which we're not harnessing enough." (via NewsBusters)
