Loved those last two paragraphs:

Yes…we’re staring down the barrel of the ugliest threat to freedom and democracy in our lifetime. That part is real. But don’t you dare swallow the poison pill that says “it’s too late,” or “the fight’s already lost.”

If your heart is still thumping in your chest… if air is still moving through your lungs… then you’re not out of the fight. You’re in it. Right now. And as long as you’re in it, the other side hasn’t won a damn thing.

YES!
