Okay, moving on. From the very beginning, when I testified about the Twitter files two years ago, the Democrats treated me almost like I was worse than a Trump supporter. To them, they think of me as some kind of apostate, but I've been a lifelong supporter of the First Amendment. I've been a Democrat most of my life.
