John,
Months ago, members of the Squad led the way on Impeachment. Rashida, Ayanna, Ilhan, and Alexandria courageously spoke out when others were too afraid to speak their minds — for fear of the consequences.
Finally, amongst this incredible but frankly unsurprising scandal, the nation has followed suit. According to the latest poll by YouGov, not only do a strong majority of Democrats support impeachment, but a minority of Republicans oppose it:
Donald Trump has been a continuation of the policies that have destroyed the working class, exacerbated inequality, and emboldened powerful corporations systematically over the three years he’s been in office. He’s used the power of the presidency to enrich himself, his cronies, and the billionaire class.
And yet, too many Democrats in Congress have been afraid to hold him accountable and fight back against his brazen economic sabotage, for fear of angering their corporate donors.
Justice Democrats aren’t like that. It doesn’t matter if it’s hard or risky — our leaders will speak truth to power, because people want their leaders to be courageous.
Donald Trump has never really had to face consequences in his life. His privilege protected him from that. Now, the Squad is here to hold him and everyone like him accountable for their actions.
In solidarity,
Justice Democrats
