Dear Friend,
I’ll admit… I angry-baked last night.

win!"
After watching a lie-filled State of the Union address Tuesday night, [1]
and then witnessing a slim majority of Republican U.S. Senators voting for
a sham acquittal of President Trump last night, [ [link removed] ] I had to channel my
anger into action... somehow.
Despite my anger and frustration, I still believe that right and truth
will win.

The stunning failure of a majority of our senators to protect our country
and honor their oath by voting to remove a president for appalling
crimes—for which he was deservedly impeached—will ensure that President
Trump has no line he will not cross.
The U.S. Senate Republicans made a mockery of justice by refusing to hear
from witnesses or consider evidence. Every Senator who refused to hold
Trump accountable abdicated their duty, and became complicit in Trump’s
shameful and deplorable behavior. This sham trial was an epic failure – a
betrayal that will cause profound and lasting harm. Now we have to turn
anger into action—Moms have the creativity, will, and expertise to protect
our democracy!

battle to protect our democracy, build our power, get out the mom vote,
and fight disinformation and voter suppression.
We are incredibly grateful to the tens of thousands of MomsRising
volunteers who wrote, called, and showed up at their members’ of Congress’
offices to speak out to impeach and remove President Trump—Thank you!
We also applaud the U.S. House impeachment managers, who did a masterful
job of compiling and presenting overwhelming evidence of President Trump’s
guilt; they and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi deserve the thanks of a
grateful nation for working so hard to defend our democracy.
However, the notion that President Trump has learned his lesson is absurd.
We saw during his State-of-the-Union address, that he has been emboldened.
For him now, no lie is too big, no insult too cruel, no hate-mongering too
dangerous, no distortion too divisive. This sneak peek at the unchastened
Trump was chilling.
[ [link removed] ]We need everyone to turn anger into action, and you can start by

values of honesty and decency. We still believe that right and truth will
win.
