Hell yeah. Hold the line. This is what we need people to do.

Slow things down, don’t comply in advance so the courts have time to stop them. It’s starting to work.
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.

There are some who say “your life won’t change much when trump is President” and I get why they’re saying that in the sense that I’m well off and a citizen who was born here to parents who aren’t gonna be deported either, but all else aside fuck yourself, I have a conscience

Really says something about the partisan asymmetry of political appointments that Trump appointed Christopher Wray (a Republican); Biden kept Wray on for four years, governing under a GOP-run FBI; and now Wray is resigning because otherwise Trump will fire him to install a more extreme Republican.
