The stakes have never been higher than in this election.
As part of his agenda if he’s handed power again, Trump—a convicted felon who tried to overthrow a previous election—plans to purge the federal government of career employees who follow the law and Constitution, and install 50,000+ MAGA loyalists who will follow any order he gives them, no matter how illegal or extreme. This type of government purge is on a scale unseen in modern U.S. history.
With the recent Supreme Court decision making presidents broadly immune from criminal prosecution—and an unlimited pardon power for subordinates who violate federal law—the wrong president could violate our basic rights on a mass scale without fear of legal consequences, paving the way for bona fide fascism. DON’T LET IT HAPPEN ON YOUR WATCH!
Project 2025 and Agenda 47 outline the extremist MAGA plan to impose far-right-wing policies on all of us, including purging government employees, a national abortion ban, use of the military and DOJ against protesters, political opponents, the homeless, and migrants, defunding schools that don’t teach right-wing propaganda, ending birthright citizenship, eliminating the Department of Education, ramping up persecution of LGBTQ folk, and rolling back President Biden’s climate policies.

-Trump wants to use the military against his domestic enemies. Congress must act.

WE NEED TO PAY ATTENTION TO THIS, AND SPREAD THE WORD EVERYWHERE.
This is an extremely dangerous situation, and there are far fewer legal guardrails to prevent it than people assume. Contact your members of Congress, and tell them to update the Insurrection Act NOW to prevent trump, or anyone else, from using the military as a personal domestic police force!
