Dear Friend,
Donald Trump is trying survive the Ukraine scandal by declaring war on
whistleblowers. We've got to stop him.
Here's the latest news: He attacked the White House whistleblower as a
“political hack” and openly suggested the death penalty for the
whistleblower's sources. His allies on Fox News are going all-out to smear
and intimidate the whistleblower and others who are thinking of coming
forward.
Now, just like Edward Snowden, the White House whistleblower has been
forced into hiding for personal safety.
Demand Progress has fought for whistleblower rights for years, and we need
to have the White House whistleblower's back now.
[ [link removed] ]Will you donate to help defend the White House whistleblower and hold
Turmp accountable?
The abuses of power detailed in the whistleblower complaint are textbook
examples of high crimes and misdemeanors. Trump and the Republicans know
that the only way they can escape accountability is to attack the source
of information—and that's exactly what they're doing.
Fox News and Republicans on Capitol Hill are attempting to undermine
public confidence in the whisteblower by alleging bogus "inconsistencies"
in the complaint.^1
The White House whistleblower knew that calling out Trump would trigger
this this barrage of attacks from the president of the United States. And
the whistleblower came forward anyway, risking loss of career, reputation,
and potentially even their freedom.
To help defend the White House whistleblower, we need to hold
Congressional Republicans and Trump himself accountable for these massive
abuses of power. Demand Progress has long fought to protect
whistleblowers—from Chelsea Manning to Edward Snowden to Reality Winner,
we always stand up for those who stand up to corruption and lawbreaking.
But we can't do it without your help.
Will you make a donation to help defend the White House whistleblowers and
all patriotic government workers speaking out against corruption?
[ [link removed] ]Yes, I’ll donate to help defend the White House whistleblower.
Thanks for standing with us.
