As your active constituent and as an engaged global citizen, I implore you to do everything you can to ensure that Trump is impeached.
As former Secretary Buttigieg recently said re Trump acting tyrannically, as though he were a monarch completely above any law, “The head of our country’s government is in the early stages of consolidating total power. We must of course reject this, but that is not enough. We have to respond by creating a different and better kind of American politics than we have seen before.”
The President’s blatantly unconstitutional actions are a dire threat to our democracy. To quote Free Speech for People in their Impeach Trump Again campaign:
“DEFEND DEMOCRACY.
In the time since his second inauguration, Trump has carried out an assault on the rule of law, on the checks and balances of power between our co-equal branches of government, and on the United States Constitution. Donald Trump is disqualified from the presidency. And now he is committing multiple abuses of power in violation of clear constitutional commands and at the expense of our democratic institutions, constitutional precedent, and the health and safety of all of our people, especially the most vulnerable. Congress must take action.
“DEMAND ACCOUNTABILITY.
Trump is not a monarch. He is beholden to the Constitution, as is Congress. And as the Founders understood, if we are to preserve our democracy for the people, then Congress has a duty to investigate and, if necessary, remove a corrupt executive.”
I want to emphasize again that it is your duty, as a member of the U.S. Congress, to both investigate and, if called for, officially remove a corrupt executive. It is clear that Trump is in violation of the rule of law and the Constitution itself.
We the people demand that you fulfill your solemn duties and stop this authoritarian, fascist takeover of our democracy.
