An open letter to the U.S. Congress

Speak up now against Trump’s abuse of power before it’s too late!

21 so far! Help us get to 25 signers!

What is happening in this country is not leadership — it is raw intimidation dressed up as politics. When a president or any powerful figure openly wages war on anyone who dares to disagree, we are no longer dealing with healthy democratic debate. We are staring straight into the face of authoritarian behavior. Former allies who once stood shoulder-to-shoulder with him are now treated like traitors simply for telling the truth. Public servants who dedicated their lives to this country — astronauts, veterans, career officials — are smeared, degraded, and even told they should be harmed. This is not politics. This is a threat to the very idea of America. And let’s be honest: once a leader embraces vengeance and public humiliation as governing tools, no one is safe. Today’s targets are outspoken Republicans and patriotic Americans who refuse to kneel. Tomorrow’s targets could be anyone who hesitates, anyone who questions, anyone who refuses to bow to the rage of the moment. Silence is not safety. Silence is surrender. If we want a country where dissent is allowed, where truth matters, where power is checked rather than worshiped, then people must speak up — loudly, unapologetically, and immediately. Abuse of power does not fade on its own. It grows until someone has the courage to stop it. This is that moment. Stand up. Speak out. Draw the line. Because once tyranny takes root, it never stops at someone else — it eventually comes for you.
