Stop Trump’s Illegal Election Takeover and Retaliation Against Whistleblowers — Defend the Constitution Now The Constitution is under direct and coordinated assault. Donald Trump’s Executive Order 14215 unlawfully seizes control of the independent Federal Election Commission (FEC), violating the Elections Clause, the Separation of Powers, and federal law. This order is designed to rig elections, not protect them. It strips the FEC of its independence, coerces states, imposes unconstitutional voter suppression measures, and hands sensitive voter data to partisan operatives like Elon Musk’s DOGE — bypassing Congress and the will of the people. But it does not stop there. Trump is also abusing executive power to punish and silence whistleblowers. Former Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency Director Chris Krebs, who truthfully affirmed the security of the 2020 election, is now being targeted under another retaliatory executive order. His security clearance — and the clearances of his colleagues — were revoked as political retribution. This targeting of Krebs, a respected expert who stood up for election integrity, is a chilling warning: anyone who defends free and fair elections will be punished. This is not governing — it is authoritarianism. This is not about protecting elections — it is about controlling them. The Constitution is clear: • Only Congress and the states can regulate federal elections — not the President. • The FEC must remain an independent referee — not a tool of the White House. • Whistleblowers must be protected — not persecuted by executive decree. I demand that you: • Strike down Executive Order 14215 as unconstitutional. • Defend the independence of the FEC and protect elections from political interference. • Condemn the use of executive power to retaliate against whistleblowers like Chris Krebs. • Affirm that no president may control the administration of elections or the agencies that oversee them. • Safeguard the American people’s right to free, fair, and impartial elections. If you do not act, you will not simply be bystanders to the collapse of democracy — you will be enablers of it. History will remember whether you defended the Constitution — or surrendered it. We are watching. The world is watching. Act now.
