First LA, then DC, now Chicago.
Trump is setting his sights on cities that hate him, and punishing us for voting against him in 2024 by sending in our military.
Trump is overriding the state’s authority and autonomy to govern and police itself and sending in the military and masked federal agents.
This doesn’t sound like the “small government” that Republicans claim they’re advocating for, nor should federal militarization ever be the answer to anything. We’re prepared to fight and to hold the Trump administration and his cronies accountable. That starts with electing Democrats at the local, state, and federal levels.
Trump just tried this in DC because he wants to see how far his authoritarianism will go – and how many people will protect and back him when he’s blatantly power-grabbing.
We need power in Congress to hold Trump accountable everywhere – but that can only happen with sustained investment.
Thank you,
