Myself and many experts far more knowledgeable than I fear this will be our last election.

 

John,

 

Today marks three years since the attack on our Capitol on January 6th, 2021. A dark day, but an important reminder of the fragility of our democracy. 

 

I remember what I was doing on that day three years ago. I was doing work on finishing my basement and hadn’t even been checking my phone. When I took a break and turned on the news my heart sank

 

Watching the videos playing I could tell that many of the rioters storming and infiltrating the capitol were using tactics eerily reminiscent of those that I had learned in the military. What I was watching was not just a riot, but a carefully planned operation executed by operators with advanced training.

Don’t let the Q-Anon shaman’s from that day fool you. Many of the individuals on the ground that day were organized, armed, well trained, and extremely dangerous. 

I look forward to working alongside you in this last-ditch effort to save our democracy.

 

Yours in the fight,
