We have overcome near-death experiences before.
We shall overcome this one too. Not by denying we are in a constitutional crisis.
We are.
But we can and will prevail if we face the truth unflinchingly and never abandon the long twilight struggle against evil.

Trump is trying to spin German election into what he wanted. It's not. Trump, Vance and Musk wanted the Far right AfD party to win. They didn't. The new incoming German Chancellor just last week slammed Vance for praising the Afd party. The US is even more isolated. www.reuters.com/world/europe...

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.
