Dear John,

Donald Trump is on a constitutional crime spree, illegally shuttering entire agencies, firing federal workers en masse, freezing congressionally mandated federal grants, and attempting to erase our constitutionally protected freedoms by executive order.

It’s illegal and unconstitutional, but Trump and his cronies are ignoring court orders, claiming that “judges aren’t allowed to control the executive’s legitimate power,” as Vice President JD Vance put it in a chilling tweet on Sunday.

This is beyond bonkers. In our system of government, it’s up to the courts to determine whether the president is using his power “legitimately,” not the president.

Soon the Supreme Court will be forced to weigh in — and if Trump ignores them too and gets away with it, then that’s truly the end of the rule of law.

Inequality Media is sounding the alarm to our millions of followers and giving people concrete actions they can take to help fight back — and it’s working. In fact, our views and engagements are up 300% over the same time last year, and our net audience growth is up 800%.

But in the face of Trump’s breakneck assault on the U.S. Constitution, we must ramp up our efforts immediately. That’s why I’m asking you today: Will you make a monthly donation to help educate the public and stop Trump’s assault on our democracy?

Inequality Media was built for this moment. We’ve spent a decade growing our audience across the internet and learning how to harness the power of social media to debunk right-wing lies and educate the public about issues the corporate media ignores.

But we’ve never faced a battle like this. Donald Trump’s goal is to give himself unlimited power. He’s openly said it again and again, promising to be a “dictator on day one” and “terminate” the U.S. Constitution.

Now we’re seeing his plan unfold right before our eyes, and the damage that’s being done to real people. It’s up to us to fight back.

The first step is to understand the nature of the fight that we’re in. This is not a mere policy disagreement between two conventional political parties. It’s an existential battle for the survival of democracy.

Democrats must block everything they can in any way they can. And we need to have their backs by getting out the truth, debunking the MAGA lies, and holding Trump accountable.

I believe there will be a reckoning. The American people don’t want to be ruled by a kleptocratic dictator. But that backlash needs to start right now, and we’re working day and night to sound the alarm and mobilize the grassroots resistance we need.

So if you’re with us and can afford it, please make a monthly donation to help get the truth out and stop Trump’s assault on our democracy.
