Chris Murphy: "Everyone who signs up to work for Donald Trump is signing up for one single project, and that is the transition of American democracy to a kind of kleptocratic oligarchy in which the billionaires rule and get to steal from regular Americans."

After catching up on today’s news, my thoughts are as follows.

Fuck Putin.

Slava Ukraini.

I didn't think I was capable of feeling any more shame for what America has become.

I was wrong.

They win when you:

- lose hope
- give up
- become cynical and withdraw
- keep silent to stay off their radar

Don't let them win.
