It has never been more important for our congress to stand up for the American people than now. The nominees put forward by the president are unqualified and need to be stopped. Put the democracy first and stop worrying about reelection or retribution. We need members of congress to have integrity and character and I’ve not seen anything but cowardice and complicity. I see what’s happening as an existential threat to our country’s survival. I didn’t spend 22 years as a Marine defending the constitution just to see it shredded in the first 2 weeks of the new administration. The unlawful purge of the FBI, inspectors general, civil servants, and the dismantling of the DOE are scary and illegal just because they did their jobs. Show me you have the courage to oppose this massive overhaul of our democracy. I want to feel like you’re good enough to represent me.
