My Open Letter to #ElonMusk
https://www.democracydocket.com/opinion/my-open-letter-to-elon-musk/

"Elon Musk recently posted... that another lawyer & I are “undermining civilization”... suffering from “generational trauma.” This is my response...

I am just a lawyer. I do not have your wealth or your platform...But you need to know this about me...

I will use every tool at my disposal to protect this country from #Trump...

I will not back down. I will not bow or scrape. I will never obey.

Defiantly,
Marc Elias"

Text from letter:
Now let me address the real crux of your post.

You are very rich and very powerful. You have thrown in with Donald Trump. Whether it is because you think you can control him or because you share his authoritarian vision, I do not know. I do not care.

Together, you and he are dismantling our government, undermining the rule of law and harming the most vulnerable in our society. I am just a lawyer. I do not have your wealth or your platform. I do not control the vast power of the federal government, nor do I have millions of adherents at my disposal to harass and intimidate my opponents. I may even carry generational trauma.

But you need to know this about me. I am the great-grandson of a man who led his family out of the shtetl to a strange land in search of a better life. I am the grandson of the three-year-old boy on that journey. As you know, my English name is Marc, but my Hebrew name is Elhanan (אֶלְחָנָן) — after the great warrior in David’s army who slew a powerful giant.

I will use every tool at my disposal to protect this country from Trump. I will litigate to defend voting rights until there are no cases left to bring. I will speak out against authoritarianism until my last breath.

I will not back down. I will not bow or scrape. I will never obey.

Defiantly,
Marc Elias
