In the open
There is no hiding or obfuscating that can overcome the clear signals sent by the far right.
Dear friends - every week, it seems, the intentions of the far-right and their candidate become more open. Flags representing the intention to install a biblical republic are displayed by the Speaker of the House and one of the Justices of the Supreme Court. Deals are offered, putting a price tag on rolling back regulations on the fossil fuel industry. Truth is struck from the Congressional record because it does not align with the obligatory false narrative regarding the indictments and trials of the former president. Highly-placed Republicans will not go on record as stating they will accept the results of the upcoming presidential election.
And that former president, seeking a return to office, reposts a video that uses the term “unified Reich” to describe his desired post-election state.
There is no hiding or obfuscating that can overcome these clear signals.
The current administration, far from perfect, has taken actions to stabilize inflation, support record low unemployment, protect wild areas, and invest in infrastructure and clean energy. It has stood against Russian aggression in Europe.
We are heading into a highly charged campaign summer with a clear choice:
Return the former president to the highest office in the land, and democracy will be the loser.
Or return a dedicated defender of democracy at home and abroad, and work as hard as we can to use the permissions and platforms of a thriving democracy to continue to advance human rights for all.
Thank you for being part of this journey.
