The playbook of demagogues like Trump is to protect the Oligarchs by dividing us up based on race, religion, place of birth or sexual orientation.

They want us to hate each other while they laugh all the way to the bank.

Don’t fall for it.

This gave me the biggest laugh this morning. So unexpected in the middle of a serious newsletter. Everyone’s just like, “But what if someone farts near my face?!”

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.

I remember in high school a guy got elected class president by promising he’d get tater tots added to the daily lunch menu instead of being offered just once a week. He didn’t and no one said anything. Nothing changes.
