End Trump's Dictator Rule
Since Inauguration Day, Trump has consistently upended our constitutional separation of powers to unilaterally control all branches of our government; impose his political agenda on the entire U.S. population; and extort or prosecute anyone who challenges him, his power, or his financial interests.
-
He has deployed the military in U.S. cities and repeatedly threatened to weaponize the military to attack the “enemy within”, i.e. anyone deemed to be a political opponent.
-
He has exploited emergency powers to circumvent established law and enact illegal policies.
-
He has attacked our freedom of speech, silencing dissent and censoring government agencies.
-
He has bulldozed Congress’ constitutional authority over tariffs, the budget, and military authorizations to consolidate power within the executive branch.
-
He has repeatedly defied federal court orders and attacked judges who rule against him.
-
He has weaponized the Department of Justice to attack political enemies and shield himself and his allies from prosecution.
-
He has threatened states’ authority to over their elections and pushed for additional partisan gerrymandering to rig congressional elections.
-
He has personally profited off his position by using “donations” and lawsuit threats as tools for bribery.
In any other administration, just one of these egregious displays of authoritarianism would merit the removal of a president. It is beyond unacceptable that Congress has ceded their constitutional role to allow this fascist attack on our democracy to continue. Demand your representatives do their job as a member of a co-equal branch of government and stop Trump’s dictatorial rule.
