My dearest wife,
It is week two of the Siege of Portland, and still these barbarians will not yield to our troops. We have severed the cords of their latte machines but they are making cowboy coffee in their camps, where loud ukulele songs of resistance even now drift in on the breeze.

I'm thinking about a quote by British author Elizabeth Bibesco in 1934, amid Hitler's growing horrors:
“The Nazi regime benefits from the fact that its atrocities overstep the limits of credibility.”
Today, many Americans suffer from that same failure of imagination. It could be fatal.

Left the theater last night discussing this brilliant documentary. We couldn’t help but focus on what I just heard Jane Fonda articulate so well. “This is our documentary moment.”

Lyrics: Do you hear the people sing?
Lost in the valley of the night
It is the music of a people who are climbing to the light
For the wretched of the earth
There is a flame that never dies
Even the darkest nights will end and the sun will rise
Lost in the valley of the night
It is the music of a people who are climbing to the light
For the wretched of the earth
There is a flame that never dies
Even the darkest nights will end and the sun will rise

DOJ leadership has put all Public Integrity Section lawyers into a room with 1 hour to decide who will dismiss Adams indictment or else all will be fired. Sending them strength to stand by their oath, which is to support the Constitution, not the president’s political agenda. 🇺🇸
