Stop allowing Trump to use the DOJ to silence and terrorize his detractors

To: Rep. Barrett, Sen. Slotkin, Sen. Peters

From: A constituent in Lansing, MI

May 7

It's funny to think that expressing my entirely legal political views on US geopolitical and domestic policy is so likely to get me catalogued in the FBI's ever-expanding "pre-crimes" database. Meanwhile, literally dozens of January 6 pardon recipients have since been arrested again as child sexual predators. It sure seems like this country's leadership loves crime and hates democracy these days. If only we had some kind of elected representatives to push back on this authoritarian nonsense. Do your job. Stop letting Trump turn the US government into a personal tool for political violence and graft. Some of us like having a democratic republic where we are allowed to have opinions without being threatened and intimidated. Some of us notice that MAGA seems to believe it can only hold power by silencing and terrorizing all opposition. I don't understand why any of you continue to act like any of this is normal American governance.
