Look, even the most senators and congresspeople on both sides who I've talked to know that we are living in a scary environment.

Well, first of all, I hope it's chilling to some to understand that it takes years, years to establish democratic norms and traditions, decades, decades to strengthen democratic principles and ideals, generations to instill them within the hearts and minds of a people. But it could take days to unravel them, days to tear them down.

And I have never in my life been as worried about our country, about our democracy, about our traditions as I have now. But I will say this. Shiva in the Hindu faith is the god of destruction. And I know Donald Trump would get glee from me comparing him to any kind of god. Yeah. But Shiva is also a valued God because you can't have renewal and rebirth without facing destruction.

I am a prisoner of hope. I always will be. In fact, I think the best way to answer despair is to not let it have the last word. That's what hope is. And so I will always counter despairing times with telling what I think is the truth of our country's history.

It has often been out of the darkest times where we've seen the infernos of hell, where we've seen destruction, where we've seen Shiva visit itself upon our nation. But it's often been from those times, from those ashes, has risen the best of who we are.

And that's really what I'm working for right now, not just to stop the destruction coming from the White House, but to usher in the next generation of leadership in this country to help us to dream America anew and redeem the dream for so many who've given up on the very dream of America.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

I think this president has betrayed American traditions, American allies, and frankly, the incredible people of Ukraine. His leadership over the last hundred days has almost been like an invitation to the Russians to continue what has been roundly condemned by the international community. as an unjustified war of aggression.
