Hi, it’s Philadelphia District Attorney, Larry Krasner.
President Donald Trump signed an executive order last week tasking his secretary of defense, Pete Hegseth, with establishing “specialized units” in the National Guard that will be “specifically trained and equipped to deal with public order issues.”
He wants to deploy the National Guard to cities across the country like he’s already done in D.C., so he can set off a crisis big enough to cancel elections in the future. |
That’s why I went on CNN and the Meidas Touch podcast last week to state clearly that if Trump illegally brings in ICE agents or the military to commit crimes under Pennsylvania law in Philadelphia, they can be prosecuted.
I will not back down. None of us should. And if that means a short trip to jail, so be it.
I am 100% dedicated to defending our city from Trump’s illegal overreach. He’s a wannabe dictator, and I’m tired of some other Democrats not standing up to him.
But I need you with me. I’m getting hit from all sides by MAGA and my newly announced Republican opponent, who wants to unseat me so he can be Trump’s lapdog here in Philly.
With just two months remaining in this campaign, can you pitch in $25 or more to help me stand up to Trump? |
