Erich could establish a process where such things affecting the organization are checked and cross-checked. It's no fun calling them on stuff like this and much of that would be unnecessary if they consulted with people closest to the action to work out their concerns. A lot could be resolved in a phone call or email exchange before going public.
Now let's get Rodney in here and all share a big hug.
Bottoms Up!
The solution, Bannon announced, was to seize control of the GOP from the bottom up. Listeners should flood into the lowest rung of the party structure: the precincts. “It’s going to be a fight, but this is a fight that must be won, we don’t have an option,” Bannon said on his show in May. “We’re going to take this back village by village … precinct by precinct.” [More]

The program, known as Advance Peace, will launch in one precinct in each borough and pair fellows — young people deemed at risk for involvement in gun crime — with formerly incarcerated mentors.
