Friend,
Wednesday afternoon, we witnessed an attempt to violently overthrow the
U.S. government—an attack directly incited by President Donald J. Trump.
And yet, 48 hours later and despite howls for his immediate ouster
nationwide, Trump STILL has not been removed from office.
Progressives warn that every minute without Trump's removal weakens our
democracy and emboldens the far-right extremists and paramilitary groups
that organized Wednesday's assault on the Capitol.
"Donald Trump is a clear and present danger to our democracy—and he
cannot be allowed to remain in office for even 12 more days," said Stand
Up America's Sean Eldridge on Friday. "Congress must immediately hold
Trump accountable for inciting a violent insurrection to undermine our
democracy."
Over the last 72 hours, Common Dreams covered developments by the
minute, raising the voices of those demanding Trump's removal from
office and covering every angle of the right-wing insurrectionist
threat.
We've been doing this work a long time, but we've never seen anything
like this. Will you make an urgent donation to Common Dreams and help
support the indispensable reporting of our journalists during this
crisis?

We don't know what will happen next, but with your support, we will be

perspectives of those defending U.S. democracy against right-wing
tyranny and the very clear fascist threat that now confronts us.
These are perilous times for us all. And the urgency could not be
greater.
Please support Common Dreams' ongoing coverage of those demanding
Trump's immediate removal from office.
