Friend,

For over five years, we've been called hysterical, or worse, by those who keep insisting that Trump can't possibly be as bad as we've been saying. 

And yet, Trump keeps sabotaging our economy, killing Americans with his murder budget, and dismantling the justice system along with our Constitution.

Let us be clear about what today's Supreme Court ruling means: Trump is going to strip Americans of their citizenship.

In case you forgot, Trump has already deported 70,000 Americans and initiated hundreds of DENATURALIZATION cases in court.

Today's decision is only going to escalate Trump's fight to decide who is and isn't an American into an all out Blitzkrieg. Here's what happens next:

• Trump finds a sycophant appeals court judge to declare that the constitution doesn't provide birthright citizenship, in direct violation of the 14th Amendment.
• Trump has masked ICE agents stuff any American whose citizenship he wants to strip into unmarked cars and moves them into that judge's district.
• Trump begins denaturalizing Americans who have had American passports and paid American taxes for years if not decades. Many may be left stateless.
• The only court who can step in and end this clearly unconstitutional practice — seriously, go read the 14th amendment — is the Supreme Court. And after today what do you think they're going to do?

This is the opposite of checks and balances. This is what the beginning of an oligarchy looks like. 

While the courts dither - how many more is Trump going to deport?

America is not the place for this. Government officials at every level need to be held accountable. And that includes Donald Trump.

But, because the courts won’t do it, we’re happy to step up to the plate. Help us hold Trump accountable >>
