Today’s mob violence at the Capitol is the culmination of Trump’s sustained assault on American democracy. The President should call on the mob he incited to disperse and go home. And Trump’s supporters in the GOP and the media should reflect on what they have enabled.

At the risk of offering a penetrating glimpse of the obvious…an obligation to disclose gifts to MPs plainly requires the identify of the donor. Saying “I received a gift of an undisclosed sum from a secret donor.” is not a disclosure and suggesting it could be is gaslighting.
