[ [link removed] ]Adam Schiff for Senate
John —
Well, you’ve heard from Boca Eddie (Dad), and now it’s older brother Dan
chiming in with a tale as improbable as it is true from our shared history
as kids…
People often come up to me and ask — what’s Adam like? I mean, not on TV,
or the news, but what’s he really like? I am here to give you the real
scoop.
[ [link removed] ]If I don’t have to convince you and you’re already sold, please chip in
$5 to
Adam’s critical end-of-year deadline right now. If not, I hope you’ll read
on about why Adam’s older brother is supporting him for U.S. Senate.

As boys, we lived on a lively street in Framingham, Massachusetts with
tons of kids. One boy who lived next door had unique skills. He could draw
in his breath, gulp it in deep, and then let loose with “burp” speech
sentences long and with such range he could do song lyrics.
One day after school, the bus dropped off Adam and me at the usual stop.
Typically we’d horse around and kill time for the two-mile walk home.
(Okay maybe only one mile, but uphill in both directions.)
Only this time, Adam, age 7, decided he’d practice his burp-speak and
maybe unseat the champ on our block. After fits and starts, and much
ardent croaking, he succeeded only in being annoying as hell. So, to make
him stop, I flung my jacket at him, and the zipper chipped a front tooth.
He bled. And howled all the way home.
I told Adam to get creative and say he had bumped into a tree, or tripped
over a log, or stumbled off the bus steps. Really anything. I gave him so
many choices! But he howled even louder with each suggestion.
When at last we got home, and Mom opened the door to see Adam’s bloody
face and chipped tooth, I told her I was fine, but Adam walked into a
tree, etc… it was THEN that Adam calmly and clearly went through a catalog
of each of my lies, calling out each ruse, one by one, with perfect cool
and not a howl to be heard.
Adam could not and would not be bullied — not even at age 7!
Neither did he demand retribution from our parents, or prevaricate about
what really happened. When I look back I see that my brother’s sense of
truth and justice (and mercy) had as their inspiration this practice
period of our youth, and that is why I am asking you to help me help him
to continue to speak out and stand up against the real bullies of our era.
Adam has the decency and calm since his earliest days to stand up, assert
himself, and not be cowed. Though this is a true story from our youth, I’m
proud of how my brother, even as a kid, couldn’t be persuaded to go along
with baloney… or be conned into doing something unjust… it’s not in his
nature.
And it’s why I wasn’t surprised when Adam was able to stand up against
Donald Trump, his MAGA supporters in the House and Senate, and for our
shared values of truth and decency… no matter what was thrown his way.

$5 to his
campaign today. His race for the U.S. Senate is neck and neck, and with
his campaign buying television advertisements next month, they need your
support now more than ever.

I’m Dan, and I approve this message. I’ve always wanted to write that
sentence!
Thanks,
Dan Schiff
P.S. If none of that convinced you, here’s another photo of Adam and me
just before we moved from Massachusetts to Arizona to California!
