Concerned about the ongoing assault on our government, I have sent the following letter to my representatives in Congress:
I get it, our current president won the election, but this is crazy. I grew up understanding the three parts of government, the balance of power, in a word civics and civility. Where are the guardrails? I see a man bent on sowing chaos, a man who places himself above all others and the constitution. And Elon Musk, who elected him?
We are depending on you to show some common sense; to be a guardrail even if there are few to stand beside you. I am not asking for a response, your actions will stand louder than words.
