JOHN, we’ll get right to it.
For months we’ve been preparing for Trump to invoke the Insurrection Act so he can deploy the Military against the American people. But today, an Executive Order signed by Trump put us in entirely different territory.
He aims to use Title 32 as a backdoor to deploy National Guard units from MAGA friendly red states as his personal police force in blue states. That means he can deploy the Texas National Guard to California, for example, or the Florida National Guard to New York.
That's what he’s doing in DC as we speak. It’s what he intends to do in the weeks and months to come. Today, it’s to "fight crime" or "crack down" on immigrants. Tomorrow, it could be used to fight fake “voter fraud” in blue states.
This is all public. It’s in a signed Executive Order. He’s not hiding it.
The only thing standing in his way is Congress — if they are willing to cowboy up, exercise their legislative power, and stop Trump’s attacks on our democracy. With GOP majorities in both chambers, we’re not holding our breath.
What that means is we have to be prepared for any outcome next year. We’re going to fight for every vote, the same as we always do, but it’s no exaggeration to say that our work is more important than ever now.
If Republicans won’t stop this dangerous abuse of power, we have to hold them accountable at the ballot box next year. And that work won’t come cheap.
