I feel disoriented watching my country.
The tone has shifted from responsibility to retribution, and it’s painful to witness.
I’m still choosing hope — even when it’s quiet.

In my fifty years in politics, I don’t think I’ve seen anything like this before.
I haven't always agreed with Jerome Powell, but what Donald Trump is doing is out of the dictator’s playbook.
Kudos to Powell for speaking out.

The president of the United States is extorting the Federal Reserve Board Chairman by threatening criminal prosecution if he doesn't lower interest rates.
DOJ is compromised, legacy media is cowed and Big Law is AWOL. As I wrote last year: "We are on our own."

The Department of Justice's effort to gain access to you sensitive personal information continues. DOJ wants this data to be able to suppress the vote and subvert election results next Fall. They are suing 24 states to gain access. My law firm and I are fighting them in court in every one of them.
