Hi Andrea, I have done some research on Aid Workers and AIPAC and have sent those articles { The Guardian and X } to her at [email protected]. Is there another way to do this . Iām sort of rambling in the dark but those articles were very pertinent to our discussions on Zoom this week. Hope you are doing well, Jack

Hi Jack,
I apologize for my delay in getting back to you!
It sounds like a great plan. I agree that we should probably keep a file on our computers with a brief summary of each article we find along with the links, and once or twice a week, we can send each other and Kara any new information we find. This way, we can stay in touch and compile good information. Does that sound kind of like what you were thinking? Please let me know if you have other ideas. Iām new to this, so I am open to learning and feedback. 
Thank you for reaching out to me. I hope you have a great day!
Warm Regards,
Andrea
I am working on finding ways for us to store and share information. Perhaps a google doc?

That works for me!
Hey Andrea , I just found this Topic link and wanted to let you know that I have sent 3 articles to Kara regarding Aid Workers, AIPAC vs. Progressives , and AIPAC donations to politicians. Unfortunately, I donāt know how to save this stuff unless someone tells me how or you can contact Zara for the material I sent her. So I will await further instructions. Take care , Jack or my handle Jackc380
Hi Jack, I hope you are doing well!
As long as Kara has it, weāre probably good for now. If thereās a meeting this Wednesday, maybe we can ask others for their input on how best to collaborate and share our information.
Iām also wondering if we should look up specific categories of information, or should we amass information and then categorize it?
I apologize; I donāt have any information to offer yet. There has been a death in the family and other family issues that have left me a bit lost and overwhelmed. (Sorry if thatās too much information. 
)
Hope to talk soonāthank you!
No worries , Andrea , I will continue to send info to Kara that Cenk spoke about eg AIPAC and Aid workers. I hope you find some solace and comfort in your grief. Best, Jack

This one is more obvious because itās largely why we are all here, I think it should be said though. Tyt and the tyt fam give me so much joy. I am so grateful for those working at tyt and all of you out there in the family like me. I didnāt know how to share that with everyone then it hit me. I have a bunch of videos of the hosts , mostly
Cenk, interacting with comments that Iāve saved because they bring me so much joy. I hope tytās kindness and the kindness of the community brings you all joy too.
iāve never shared videos like this so fingers crossed this works. please let me know

Hey all,
I hope you all are having a great day! Recently, I proposed an idea at the last town hall in which was about creating a contact project to foreign governments who we think embody the values of a nation that truly upholds humanitarian rights to explore the potential of them creating extradition warrants against U.S. and European politicians who are clearly implicated in aiding and abetting human rights violations abroad(and those who are still around who have done so historically) under the legal concept of universal jurisdiction, despite the awful Hague Invasion Act(which basically implies that us politicians are above international law).
Anyways, to build more on the specifics, Iām reaching out today to see how interested some of you would be in rallying around this idea and developing it by creating a database of foreign countries and legislators who we think uphold human rights consistently and send them our model legislation either though the internet or through the consulate! While it may not lead to immediate results or even actual initial enforcement, I firmly believe that taking such action could send a strong message to U.S. politicians that they should think a little closer about the consequences of their actions abroad, and serve as a rallying point for future generations in building a world where ALL countries and government officials are held to the same standard of international humanitarian law! As always, feel free to reach out if you are interested in working on this idea, or if you have any questions! Thank you so much and looking forward to seeing what we can do about this! My email is [email protected]!
Best,
Nick

I think Guilded is the way.
Guilded? What is that?
It is like Discord but with more organizational tools attached more similar to Slack in ways.
