I am writing to demand that Congress immediately and publicly confront the constant lying, gaslighting, and deliberate misinformation being pushed by this Administration. What is happening is not normal. It is not acceptable. And Congress’s continued reluctance to call it out is actively damaging the country. The American people are being told things that are plainly untrue—claims that directly contradict verified data, sworn testimony, official government reports, court rulings, and established law. These falsehoods are repeated even after being disproven, while reality is dismissed, experts are attacked, and the public is treated as if they are incapable of recognizing the truth in front of them. That is gaslighting. And it is being done from positions of power. Congress’s silence in the face of this behavior is not responsible governance. It is abdication. You are not elected to protect an administration from embarrassment. You are elected to protect the Constitution and the public interest. When lies go unchallenged, they metastasize. When misinformation becomes routine, democracy degrades. This is not a theoretical concern — it is happening in real time. Let’s be clear: truth is not partisan. Facts are not optional. Reality does not change because it is politically inconvenient. Congress has both the authority and the obligation to act. That means publicly correcting false statements, holding hearings when senior officials knowingly mislead the public, and making clear that lying from the highest levels of government will not be tolerated. It means defending career civil servants, scientists, and investigators when their work is misrepresented to advance a political narrative. Failure to act sends a clear message: that dishonesty is acceptable as long as it is loud enough and repeated often enough. That message is corrosive. It undermines trust in government, fuels public anger, and weakens the very institutions Congress is sworn to protect. History does not look kindly on leaders who chose comfort over courage while the truth was under attack. The American people are watching. We are not confused. We are not fooled. And we are tired of being lied to. Do your jobs. Call out lies when they are told. Correct the record. Hold those responsible accountable. Anything less is a betrayal of public trust.
