1. Walter Shaub said the same thing

During his interview of Amy Siskind (during her book tour of The List) last month, Shaub mentioned what he'd been doing to contribute to the effort (if memory serves, he's been focusing on the Senate - either flipping the Senate, or on getting the Senate to take its investigative mandate seriously - can't quite remember). Anyway, he said the same thing: that, so far, there was a remarkable, even miraculous, absence of rivalry among the individuals and groups involved in the Resistance: that everyone is doing what they can do, and that everyone appreciates each other's efforts..

Please, please, let's keep it that way. All fingers and toes crossed that Democrats can refrain from their all-too-usual circular firing squad, and that they can encourage the efforts of independents and anti-Trump republicans to join their effort without demanding impossible purity tests on every issue. This is way, way, too important an issue to spoil with the usual squabbling over the small stuff. Focus on the big stuff, such as the Constitution, a free press, and equal justice for all: together, we can save the country. We HAVE to win this fight.
