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.

When people write books about the downfall of America my hope is that they will have at least a chapter on Citizens United.

one of two new poems in @ex-puritan.bsky.social today among so many, many friends!
"...she says a poem
where nothing impossible happens in it, just the truth,
and I say OK and put her in this poem and she sprouts
forty two robin wings down her neck and back and legs..."

Most of the time I feel like Luke Skywalker in the trash compactor with the walls closing in but Han, Leia and Chewy are like, "Darth Vader actually has some good points if you listen to him" and C3PO and R2D2 aren't answering because they're vaping and listening to a Joe Rogan podcast about crypto.
