The rule of law depends on our constant vigilance.
Makes me sad re-reading this amazing letter from ex-Watergate Special Prosecutor Archibald Cox sent to high school seniors in 1994 after they asked him “What should Americans learn from Watergate?” 20 years later in ‘94.
His answer is remarkable—unfortunately things didn’t work out so well in 2024.

These are real people who don’t deserve the cruelty to which they will be exposed. The govt that hired them should protect them.
