Why I post so damn often And a humble apology - Robert Reich [View all]

Friends,

Several of you have asked me how I manage to produce this Substack every day, seven days a week (often two or three times a day). Is there just one of you? you ask. Do you get any sleep? Do you have a life?

There’s just one of me (except on Saturdays, when Heather Lofthouse joins me for the Coffee Klatch). I do sleep (although as I get older, it’s harder to get a full night in). And I do have a life (I take long walks, read great novels, spend time with my wonderful family and friends).

I post so much because we’re in a national emergency, and I want to do what I can to get you the facts, arguments, and analyses you need to take an active role resisting the Trump regime.

That “active” role can be no more than sharing my posts with your friends and colleagues — so they also have the facts, arguments, and analyses they also need to effectively resist. Or giving your bosses the courage they need to resist.

I also want to frame for you what’s happening — giving the news a larger context and meaning.
