An open letter to the President & U.S. Congress

Why are you so silent on the OPEN and BRAZEN corruption? Silence is complicity.

Trump’s U.S. attorney in the Eastern District of Virginia, Erik Siebert, was pushed out, reportedly because he did not believe there was sufficient evidence to charge James or former FBI Director James Comey. Siebert was then replaced with Trump’s former personal attorney Lindsey Halligan, who had no previous experience as a prosecutor. It is not even clear if Halligan was legally appointed to the job in the first place. But she got to work anyway and immediately indicted Comey, who was arraigned on Wednesday, following up with James’ indictment on Thursday. A sitting president doing this out in the open would have, I believe, ended the career of any commander in chief not named Trump. He has directly ordered the pretextual prosecutions of people he does not like in a ham-fisted, retaliatory, lawless fashion that violates the laws of the country, the letter of the Constitution and the spirit of liberty. Putting your political opponents in jail because they are your opponents, not because of what they did, is the heart of tyranny. It’s an obviously impeachable offense. If there is any silver lining here, it is that the targets of Trump’s ire are not going quietly. Much like Comey before her, James released a video statement stating in no uncertain terms that these baseless charges are an act of retaliation for her office suing the Trump Organization. Why are you so silent on the OPEN and BRAZEN corruption??? Silence is complicity.
