I guess this the heart of it. The Constitution *is* like scripture. It’s a civic faith. It only works if you believe in it, since it has no inherent power or real controls.

And they don’t believe in it. They don’t even pretend to.

Elon Musk wouldn’t make it past the preamble.
the point is not that it's fast -- the point it that it's systematic.

Now firmly convinced that liberal nationalism is as great a threat to democracy as its conservative counterpart.

I worked in the Senate.

I worked in the House.

I helped elect a US Senator.

I ran a US Congressional campaign.

Working on the Hill for almost 10 years inspired me to become a historian.

We won’t forget January 6th. Ever.
I’ll never forget the trauma & travesty of the Capitol attack on 1/6/21.

I felt it in my heart & guts.

It was an attack on us—on We the People—on the government & Constitution that define us as a nation.

Regardless of attempts to rewrite it, it’s the truth. We saw it happen.

And we won’t forget.
