I’ve never heard what the basis was for even surmising that was her—the photo doesn’t offer any clues that I can spot. Was there other information?

Congressional leaders should be getting out front with explicit pledge and plan to reverse the damage done to the rule of law. Like this one:

Project 2027 — No Kings. No Strongmen. Just Laws.
Project 2027 is an emergency repair manual to end authoritarian rule in 100 days.

Please share widely. It’s time for candidates and elected officials to unite around a clear plane to restore the rule of law.

Also, this in 2027 — if enough candidates and members of Congress get behind it:

It should be the number one priority of elected officials to fix the systemic weaknesses in our laws that allowed things to get this far in the first place. It should include stripping the president of presumed immunity and reining in the pardon power.

I can’t shout this loudly enough—we need to demand that elected officials and candidates in the opposition stop pussyfooting around and unite around a clear and explicit promise to restore accountability and the rule of law. Maybe this one:
