Hey Patriot,

I know this may feel unusual… but there’s a reason this message landed in your inbox and not anyone else’s.

I’ve made my final decision, and I wanted you to be among the first to know. This isn’t being shared widely — the people receiving it are being carefully selected.

Please don’t forward this. Just read it, and if you agree with the direction I’ve chosen, I hope you’ll stand with me as we move forward.

More soon,

Mike Pompeo
