What would I like for my birthday this year? A gagazillion of Americans out celebrating their commitment to the rule of law.
Thanks for asking.

![A letter from Philip Glass, with his name at the top. "After thoughtful consideration, I have decided to withdraw my Symphony No. 15 "Lincoln" from the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts. Symphony No. 15 is a portrait of Abraham Lincoln, and the values of the Kennedy Center today are in direct conflict with the message of the Symphony. Therefore, I feel an obligation to withdraw this Symphony premiere from the Kennedy Center under its current leadership.
