An open letter to the U.S. Congress

Exercise your power.

7 so far! Help us get to 10 signers!

The President has neutered you. What will you do about it. Politicizing independent institutions: Trump is blocking the full release of the Epstein files. The law says release them. He refuses. The DOJ is protecting pedophiles at Trump’s direction. Spreading disinformation: He calls protests in Minnesota and Portland “insurrections.” They are not. He lies so force looks justified. Aggrandizing executive power: He flatly ignores Congress and drops U.S. military force in Venezuela because constitutional limits mean nothing to him. Quashing dissent: Federal agents rough up protesters, threaten reporters, and flood the streets in Minneapolis and Portland to teach the public what happens when you resist. Scapegoating vulnerable communities: Immigrants and their defenders get blamed, raided, shot at, and demonized so cruelty looks like order. Corrupting elections: In a January 2026 Reuters interview, he said we should not even have midterm elections. He is saying the quiet part out loud. Stoking violence: He sends armed federal forces into cities, escalates conflict, then points to the chaos as proof he needs more power. Why are you in your office. Why am I paying your salary?
