Hi friend, can I tell you a quick story about this photo?
|
|
That's me in 1985 – just 24 years old at my law school graduation, fresh off a student research assistant job for Professor Laurence Tribe, thinking that I had just completed the toughest challenge of my academic career. Well, up to that point, anyway. (The bar exam was still a few weeks away).
|
Some years later, I would become an Assistant United States Attorney, and successfully prosecute the first FBI agent charged with espionage, Richard Miller, for spying for the Soviet Union.
|
As a new graduate of law school, I could never have imagined I would handle a case like that.
|
Or that I would later investigate a president who also betrayed our country ...
|
...lead his impeachment and Senate trial...
|
...serve on the January 6 Committee...
|
...get kicked off the Intelligence Committee by a craven Speaker of the House for doing the above…
|
...and get censured by extreme partisan MAGA House Republicans under the personal threat of that corrupt president...
|
Life leads us in uncertain and fortuitous ways. I’m fortunate that at a time when our country has been in trouble, and our democracy at risk, I have been in a position to help do something about it.
|
In the Senate, I hope to do even more.
|
If you're able to, will you contribute a split donation of $5 between Ben Ray Luján and my campaign to help me reach the Senate, defend our majority, and defeat Trump? I would be grateful for your help in continuing my service.

Thanks for reading!
– Adam
