75 years ago, a Republican Senator spoke up for American values...and I ask, where is one willing to do the same today?

It is 75 years since the #RepublicanSenator, the late #MargaretChaseSmith of #Maine, stated her #DeclarationOfConscience. #HeatherCoxRichardson reminds us of this in her post today, which clearly lays out the #corruption of #DonaldTrump's assault on the #USConstitution.

"It is high time that we stopped thinking politically as Republicans and Democrats about elections and started thinking patriotically as Americans about national security based on individual freedom.” ~ Margaret Chase Smith

@pressherald.com U.S. Senator Angus King (I-ME) warns of creeping authoritarianism. Citing #MargaretChaseSmith 's 1950 #DeclarationofConscience address, #SenatorAngusKing said the issue is #tRump's apparent attempts to centralize power, including by 'ignoring the #Constitution' and the #RuleofLaw.

The Senator Who Stood Up to Joseph McCarthy When No One Else Would Margaret Chase Smith was the first woman to serve both the House and the Senate and always defended her values, even when it meant opposing her party

The world (and now, especially, the United States of America) needs more women like Margaret Chase Smith who aren't afraid to speak out against shameless political tactics.

Just finished reading Kate Quinn’s The Briar Club… so many parallels to current events. Made me pull out Senator Margaret Chase Smith’s #DeclarationofConscience for some relevant reading too. #booksky
