Stand up and fight hard for democracy! In court. In the media. In peaceful protests. Together we must use our voices and our platforms to protect the constitutional rights of everyone, the rule of law in all circumstances, and free and fair elections in 2026.

Attempting to rig elections on his behalf. Turning the military on citizens. Toying with the idea of declaring martial law. Attacking political enemies and punishing those who speak out against his regime. If this were happening in another country, what would you call it?

At least 70 top civil servants across 13 agencies have resigned in protest since Trump took office. I salute the public officials who are resisting Trump's lawlessness and putting themselves and the well-being of their families on the line. They are America's unsung heroes.

RFK Jr. wants to "make America healthy again." So he's doing that by dismantling federal health agencies and firing civil servants who inspect our food, track infectious diseases, and research life-saving treatments and vaccines. Do I have this right?
