Dear John,
We knew that Donald Trump’s cabinet nominations would be bad, but the people he’s picked so far have been flat-out horrific.
Matt Gaetz, Trump’s pick for Attorney General, is an accused sex trafficker who will turn the Justice Department into an instrument of personal political revenge for Trump.
Tulsi Gabbard, Trump’s selection for Director of National Intelligence, is a pro-Putin conspiracy theorist with zero experience in actual intelligence work.
And Robert F. Kennedy Jr. for Secretary of Health?! This is a man who claimed HIV doesn’t cause AIDS, suggested that COVID-19 was engineered to target Black people, and said, “There’s no vaccine that is safe and effective.”
These nominations are so dangerous, so far beyond the pale, that even some Republican senators are voicing opposition — and Inequality Media is launching an urgent campaign to get the truth out and demand that the U.S. Senate reject them.

I’ve been a cabinet secretary. I know how important these jobs are. And I cannot overstate how much damage Donald Trump’s picks could do.
Matt Gaetz as Attorney General would all but guarantee that Trump weaponizes the Justice Department against his enemies — past, present, and future.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is the nation’s foremost promoter of dangerous public health disinformation.
Trump’s pick for Secretary of Defense, Pete Hegseth, is a Fox News cohost who doesn’t have the remotest qualifications or experience necessary to run a department with three million employees and an annual budget of $842 billion.
In fact, these picks are so bad, so wildly unqualified, that even some Senate Republicans are speaking out against them — and in a narrowly divided U.S. Senate, Trump can only afford to lose four votes if he’s going to get these people confirmed.
Inequality Media was made for this moment. In an era of media distrust and fast-spreading disinformation, we’re one of the few organizations with the social media reach and the savvy to combat the lies and be the bastion of truth that this country so desperately needs right now.
That's why I'm asking you today: Will you make a monthly donation to Inequality Media and help educate the public and oppose RFK Jr., Matt Gaetz, and the rest of Donald Trump’s most dangerous cabinet nominations?
