When a judge stops the president from doing something illegal, that’s not a “threat to democracy,” that’s a check on the president’s power. That's the whole damn point.

I used to read books about life in the Soviet Union and marvel at the ways normal folks communicated in the face of totalitarian oppression. Today I scroll through federal bureaucrats using code words and carefully placed asterisks on Reddit and I’m like, ah shit.

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.

Today is January 6th and no one is watching the Capitol be plundered, feces being smeared on the walls, and police officers being stabbed with American flags.
Why? Because one side believes in democracy no matter what, and the other side only believes in it only when they win.
