I can’t wait to both read and listen to this piece. Judge Luttig is a national hero. He gives me hope that we will get through this crisis in our democracy.

Thank you, Judge Luttig and Ryan Lizza. I believe there is hope for our democracy thanks to what you've written. Perhaps we might place a call to the current King of England for assistance.

Now these were the days - "You have to love a nation that celebrates its independence every July 4, not with a parade of guns, tanks, and soldiers who file by the White House in a show of strength and muscle, but with family picnics where kids throw Frisbees, the potato salad gets iffy, and the flies die from happiness. You may think you have overeaten, but it is patriotism." - Erma Bombeck (she would be heartsick for her America today)

I posted a brief comment on this yesterday, and had hundreds of 'likes' in reaction on Facebook, to my surprise!

Ryan, Thank you for everything you have done to edit, format, post, promote, and record this incredible essay. Judge Luttig’s experience and wisdom are a gift to everyone who is disgusted and outraged by Trump and his antidemocratic enablers. Just subscribed.

I shared this with my family today, Judge Luttig, several of whom are supporters of President Trump. This was perfect. Thank you for your efforts and your advocacy on behalf of the constitution, the rule of law, and the restoration of our republic.

Liberty and freedom of self rule under the rule of law in our Constitution. Oaths to the Constitution should be kept, and not violated. They are not 'just' ceremonial.
