Little mellow music to keep me occupied

A very topical reminder, ain’t it?
In light of the political landscape we live in I think this is a very good reminder. I'll let you get who the junior senator from Wisconsin is
We will not walk in fear, one of another. We will not be driven by fear into an age of unreason if we dig deep in our history and remember we are not descended from fearful men … who feared … to defend causes which were unpopular …. The actions of the junior senator from Wisconsin have caused alarm and dismay … and whose fault is that? Not really his; he didn’t create this situation of fear; he merely exploited it, and rather successfully. Cassius was right, “The fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars, but in ourselves.”
