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.

It has been the experience of a lifetime to be commissioned by the Metropolitan Museum of Art to write a poem (Now Beacon, Now Sea) for the Friedrich exhibit. I picked the painting Monk by the Sea. Rich & I got to meet the curatorial team at the opening. I’m very grateful.

Whew. The Gaiman story is horrifying on so many levels AND Amanda Palmer serving up vulnerable young women to him and exploiting someone for labor is also horrifying.
