An open letter to the U.S. Congress

Your Silence Is Endangering America and Our Allies

27 so far! Help us get to 50 signers!

President Trump’s unhinged and hostile behavior toward the Prime Minister of Norway is not diplomacy — it is recklessness bordering on insanity. He is openly threatening our allies, undermining NATO, and destabilizing relationships that keep Americans safe. And you are doing nothing. Your silence is not neutrality. It is permission. Norway is a trusted ally. A NATO partner. A democratic nation that has stood with the United States through war, conflict, and global crises. When the President threatens allied leaders, he is not “projecting strength” — he is sabotaging U.S. security and inviting global instability. Why are you so quiet? Why are you allowing one man’s volatility, ego, and aggression to dictate U.S. foreign policy? Why are you failing to defend our allies while authoritarian regimes watch closely and take notes? Why are you abandoning your constitutional responsibility to act as a check on a dangerous executive? This is not normal presidential behavior. It is not strategic. It is not acceptable. It is dangerous. History is clear: when leaders threaten allies, dismiss diplomacy, and operate without restraint, wars follow. Alliances fracture. Trust collapses. Innocent people pay the price. Congress was never meant to sit silently while this happens. You do not get to claim ignorance later. You see this. We all do. The American people expect Congress to speak out forcefully, hold hearings, issue condemnations, and reassert authority over foreign policy before irreparable damage is done. If you continue to say nothing, you are complicit in the harm that follows. Do your jobs. Defend our allies. Stop this before it escalates further. Your silence is already a failure — don’t let it become a catastrophe history will remember.
