They find it offensive that the world's wealthiest person is determining how our country should be run. They find it offensive that any person, even if they're president, can get to defy the courts or the Constitution. They find it offensive that people are threatening the services that they've relied on since the New Deal, since FDR. And they are speaking out.

It's why the president's approval ratings are coming down. It's why members of Congress are suddenly... flipping their votes. It's why, in certain cases, the media is highlighting unjust deportations, and some of them are being stopped. It's not Congress. It's not the Senate.

I'm very optimistic. It's always darkest before the dawn. In American history, after the Civil War, we had the 13th, 14th, 15th Amendment. After the Robert Barron era, we had the progressive era that outlawed child labor and had some sense of the work week, hours of the work week.

It's not just that they've been the leaders of technology research that gave the world the Internet, that gave the world the GPU, that gave the world robotics and A.I.,
