Today Donald Trump attacked me by name in a speech at the Department of Justice. Of course I am worried, but courage comes from acting in spite of being worried. I have made my choice: I will continue to speak out, I will continue to litigate, I will continue to stand tall. I will never bow down.

Mike Johnson: "The problem is they're being ambushed by right now by in many cases paid protesters. You've got George Soros-funded groups. They are very well organized ... the actual constituents of these Republican members can't actually make it into the arenas."

I can’t quite gather the thoughts, the dread, the fury, of thinking of Pete Hegseth as SecDef. God help us all. We are a global laughingstock and dangerous to our allies. Hegseth’s inexperience and low morality will cost us dearly. My words are incapable of expressing my disgust.

I can't speak for anyone else, only myself, but for the next four years, I'm going to continue spreading as much love as I can. I will stand up for and protect those who need it. I'm going to embrace all of the things that make me feel good. I won't let their hate win in my life. Fuck 'em.

What could possibly go wrong?
