In a time where so many are willing to stay home and warm, and choose to be isolated and afraid, you have chosen to be strong, outspoken, and courageous. I’m so grateful for that. The actions you are taking are echoing across the world. I hope whatever forces protected me in Afghanistan are watching over you all in Minneapolis. I still have the flag I got on deployment. It’s hanging upside down in my office. When you all win, I’ll turn it rightside up. De Oppresso Liber.
