This is what happens when an authoritarian gets his hands back on the levers of power.
John,
Trump promised retribution if he was reelected. Now he’s delivering through an ever-growing list of revenge prosecutions.
This is what happens when an authoritarian gets his hands back on the levers of power.
First: Trump demanded the Department of Justice go after New York Attorney General Letitia James — not because she broke the law, but because she had the courage to hold him accountable for civil fraud.
Then: He turned his rage on former FBI Director James Comey, calling for prosecution because Comey refused to bow to Trump’s lies and corruption.
Now: Trump has added another name to his list of so-called “political enemies,” Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell.
Why? Because Powell wouldn’t rig interest rates to help Trump politically. He followed the evidence. He did his job. And for that, Trump wants him punished.
Trump is weaponizing the Department of Justice to do his dirty work, turning it into a personal enforcement arm designed to intimidate, punish, and silence anyone who stands in his way.
It’s authoritarianism in real time.
Demand Justice PAC is calling this out — loudly — because silence is exactly what Trump is counting on. We’re sounding the alarm before this abuse of power becomes normalized, and we’re asking if you’ll stand with us today.
If you’re outraged by Trump’s retribution campaign — if you refuse to accept a justice system twisted into a weapon — chip in right now to Demand Justice PAC.
