Your silence is no longer acceptable. President Trump and his administration are actively alienating America’s closest allies and dismantling decades of hard-won trust that made the United States safer, stronger, and respected around the world. This damage is real, measurable, and dangerous—and Congress has a duty to speak up and stop it. Our relationships with Canada and Mexico, our nearest neighbors and largest trading partners, have been recklessly undermined. Long-standing diplomatic norms have been replaced with insults, threats, and instability. These are not hostile nations. They are allies—and this administration is treating them like enemies. Even more alarming is the ongoing assault on NATO and our democratic allies. By publicly attacking, belittling, and undermining the alliance that has preserved global stability for generations, this administration has weakened collective security and emboldened authoritarian regimes. Allies are questioning whether the United States can still be trusted to keep its word. That alone should alarm every member of Congress. Trust is the foundation of diplomacy. Once lost, it is not easily restored. Right now, the United States is being viewed as unreliable, volatile, and led by impulse rather than principle. That makes Americans less safe, weakens our economy, and hands strategic advantages to our adversaries—without a single shot being fired. Congress is not powerless in this moment. You are a co-equal branch of government. You have a constitutional obligation to check reckless executive behavior, especially when it endangers national security and global stability. This requires more than quiet concern behind closed doors. It requires public, unequivocal condemnation of policies and rhetoric that: • Alienate trusted allies • Undermine NATO and collective defense • Destroy U.S. credibility and diplomatic reliability • Damage America’s standing on the world stage History will not judge kindly those who stayed silent while America’s alliances were dismantled in real time. Leadership means speaking up when the President is wrong—especially when the consequences affect the entire world. Make this stop. Defend our alliances. Restore American credibility. The American people expect Congress to act.
