Law Enforcement Legal Defense Fund


John,

Joe Biden betrayed my son.

Chad was a U.S. Marshal defending the Federal Courthouse in
Portland, Oregon, during the violent summer riots of 2020.

But instead of rewarding Chad for bravely putting his life on the
line to protect life and property, the Biden administration is
allowing his life to be destroyed.

And now I'm afraid he'll lose everything...which is why I'm
reaching out to you today to help my son.

That's my son, Chad Skaggs, his wife Roxana and my three
beautiful grandkids.



At the height of the 2020 riots, President Trump sent Chad and
his fellow Marshals to restore law and order in Portland--because
the local and state authorities refused to stop the riots.

A violent left-wing mob blocked the Courthouse doors to trap Chad
and his fellow Marshals inside.

Then they set the building on fire.

Thank God he escaped.

But outside--as the city burned around them--Chad and his fellow
officers were pelted with rocks, frozen water bottles, and
Molotov cocktail-style firebombs.

Eventually, the Marshals were able to disperse the mob restore
law and order.

What happened next is shocking... and left my son and his family
devastated.

Leftist rioters brought a civil lawsuit against Chad.

After escaping the burning Courthouse, Chad and his fellow
Marshals tried to move the rioters away from the building.

One of the Marshals was forced to use his baton and pepper spray
on the violent leftists who refused orders to disperse.
Video evidence shows minimal force was used against the mob. And
remember, this was a group of radicals who tried to kill these
federal officers--and then refused commands to back away.
All summer they were chanting slogans like "all cops are
bastards" and "pigs must die."
Still, the left-wing American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) jumped
at the chance to sue Chad on behalf of the radical rioters.

President Trump was also named in the lawsuit, along with other
officials and law enforcement officers.

With a lawsuit against a law enforcement officer, the government
typically provides an attorney and legal resources for the
officer.

But Biden's DOJ said it was "not in the interest of the United
States" to defend Chad in court.

Joe Biden chose the rioters over my son.

Chad was home recovering from hip surgery for an injury he
sustained when they came to his house asking for his gun and his
badge...

I know that Chad is being thrown to the wolves for purely
political reasons.

And I know that Joe Biden is making a statement by turning his
back on the law enforcement officers like Chad because they were
sent into Portland by President Trump.

Let's be honest, the leftist base of Joe Biden's party hates the
police.

They want people like Chad to suffer.

They know he can't afford to pay for a legal defense for himself.

They know he will be financially destroyed and his family will be
destitute.

But they want to make an example out of him.

And so I'd resigned myself to thinking that there was nothing I
could do and that the bad guys were going to win.

Until we got the phone call that changed everything.

It was Jason from LELDF saying they would help provide a free
legal defense for Chad.

Believe me, your kind donation today of $35, $50, or $100 to
LELDF to defend Chad will mean so much to our family.

John, I can't emphasize enough that my son never asked for any
of this!

After more than 14 years in the Army as a Green Beret, Chad has
served with distinction for the past 11 years in the U.S. Marshal
Service.

And this is the "thanks" he gets from the Commander-in-Chief:
betrayal and retaliation.

LELDF is preparing to ramp up legal action in Chad's case, so I'm
counting on your gift of $35 or more today to help fund his
defense.

Whether or not you can give, please keep Chad and our family in
your prayers.

With deep appreciation,

Linda Skaggs


P.S. I know in my heart that most Americans are good people who
support law enforcement and don't want to see my son Chad
destroyed for simply doing his job. Please consider taking a
