It took the Nazis one month, three weeks, two days, eight hours, and 40 minutes to dismantle a constitutional republic.
When the fire starts to burn, every good person better be ready to man a post with a bucket of water if you want to stop it from raging out of control.

I had insomnia the night Russia invaded Ukraine and watched it unfold in real time. And tonight watching, here in London, that's what it feels like again. A dark, implacable malevolent takeover. That's accompanied by almost total silence amid so much noise.

I want to highlight what I believe is a significant document that I reviewed for this story. It's a memorandum of understanding between DOGE & CFPB. In all the coverage of DOGE's takeover of agencies I haven't read or heard about a document like this. I think this stands out

If you are scared to protest now, remember: this is the easiest it will ever be. Life under dictatorships is pure hell & lasts for decades, probably the rest of your lives if you don’t stop them now. Read about Iran, Syria, Afghanistan – sooner or later you have to overthrow them. Choose sooner. #3E

Received a letter from POTUS today purporting to remove me as Commissioner and Chair of the FEC. There's a legal way to replace FEC commissioners-this isn't it. I've been so fortunate to serve the American people and stir up some good trouble along the way. That's not changing anytime soon.
