"Dear friends across the U.S.,
“We have seen the danger that he continues to provoke with his language. We have seen his lack of commitment and dedication to the Constitution.”
These were the powerful words with which Congresswoman Liz Cheney condemned former President Trump -- mere moments after Republicans had removed her from her leadership post in retaliation for her bravery.
Trump is no longer President, but his dangerous stranglehold on the Republican Party remains... especially because he’s never faced the consequences of his actions. But now, wide support could convince Attorney General Merrick Garland to investigate and prosecute Trump and his associates’ alleged crimes, ranging from tax fraud to inciting a deadly insurrection!
So let’s make this call for an investigation massive -- and once 100,000 back it, Avaaz will deliver our voices straight to AG Merrick Garland.
Trump and his associates made a mockery of the Presidential office. The revelations have been chilling: from the President himself inciting an insurrection in a cowardly quest to overturn a free and fair election, to flagrant abuses of power, and reports of a shady tax history. And in his final days in office, he even embarked on an unprecedented pardoning spree favoring his friends and own interests.
The State of New York has already launched investigations into Trump’s misconduct. While that’s a good start, a thorough federal investigation would show that the rule of law is alive and well in the U.S.!
Together, we can send a deafening call to AG Merrick Garland to establish an independent task force within the Department of Justice to investigate Trump and his associates!
As we close out a four year period of divisive instability fueled from the top down, we can only start to heal through unity and accountability. Better times are ahead -- but only if we all work together to preserve American democracy in the name of democracy everywhere.
With fierce determination,
Ruth, Meetali, Nick, Christine, and the whole Avaaz team"
