John, we knew Jan 6th was an unprecedented attack on our democracy, but the hearings are driving home an irrefutable truth: it’s even worse than you think.
But before we get into it, we need your help to hold Trump’s far-right enablers accountable. Will you chip in $5 to help us hold the House, save the Senate, and elect pro-democracy candidates up and down the ballot?
Here’s just a few of the big takeaways from the Jan. 6th hearings:
- President Trump engaged in an organized effort to spread misinformation about the 2020 election and stoke violence at the Capitol
- Extremist groups like the Proud Boys and the Oath Keepers had direct contact with Trump’s orbit in the days preceding the attack
- Multiple Republican congressmen sought presidential pardons for their roles in trying to overturn the election
- Some of Trump’s closest allies — including his own daughter — knew he was lying and urged him to stop the madness. He didn’t listen.
At the Democracy Defense Fund, we’re committed to holding President Trump and his enablers accountable at the ballot box.
But that will only be possible if we all do our part. Will you chip in $25 to help us elect pro-democracy Democrats and keep power away from seditious Republicans?
