John,

We are reaching the conclusion of opening arguments in the Senate's impeachment trial, but Senate Republicans are stonewalling the public's demand to subpoena necessary witnesses and documents.

*Why? Mitch McConnell is conducting a cover-up, not a trial.*

As Free Speech For People President John Bonifaz stated on KPFA [ [link removed] ] last week, "The Constitution requires that the Senate hold a trial. A trial consists of calling witnesses, demanding documents. It doesn't consist of opening arguments and then that's it, that's not what a trial is."

*Call your Senator and demand a full and fair impeachment trial today.* [ [link removed] ]

The case documenting Donald Trump's abuse of power was overwhelming before the Senate impeachment trial started. In the last two weeks, we have seen yet even more evidence that Donald Trump has subverted our Constitution and must be removed from office. Lev Parnas' submitted documents and his interview with Rachel Maddow assert [ [link removed] ] that Trump's dealings with Ukraine and former ambassador Marie Yovanovitch were a clear quid pro quo from the outset, and that former national security adviser John Bolton was a "key witness" to these high crimes. "The New York Times" [ [link removed] ] then reported that Bolton's unpublished manuscript describes Trump telling Bolton of his plan to continue freezing aid to Ukraine until officials in the country investigated the Bidens.

"[Our Senators] must not be complicit with this cover-up and with the criminal enterprise operating out of the Oval Office," John recently told "Democracy Now!" [ [link removed] ] host Amy Goodman. "They must conduct themselves according to that oath [to do impartial justice]."

By refusing to hold a comprehensive trial, Senate Republicans are effectively saying that the Constitution's impeachment clause no longer has any effect. By failing to hold President Trump accountable, the Senate is stating that he and every president after him are above the law. *That is a dangerous threat to the future of our republic.*

*Call your Senator today and demand they obey their oath and defend the Constitution.* [ [link removed] ]

In solidarity,
Free Speech For People

*P.S. Even if your Senator supports removing Donald Trump, they still need to hear from you.* [ [link removed] ] Applying political pressure is crucial as we call for a full and fair trial.
