A Call to Remove the Regime

We gathered in Washington D.C. for one purpose

This past week, something amazing happened. You might not know it, because most major media outlets failed to cover it, but over 25,000 Americans gathered in Washington D.C. on Saturday for one purpose: removing this authoritarian regime.

Throughout this year, we’ve watched Donald Trump and his billionaire and millionaire cronies dismantle our government, while attacking civil and human rights across America.

We’ve watched ICE agents rip screaming women from their children. They’re attacking immigrants, trans people and other vulnerable communities, based on a lie of increased crime, to distract from the enormous transfer of wealth from the working class to the corporate elite.

Last week, we demanded an end to this fascist regime. We demanded that Congress impeach, convict and remove Donald Trump from office for his crimes of tyranny and treason.

According to one Constitutional law scholar I spoke with last Thursday, the American President has committed at least 25 impeachable offenses so far this year. This makes a lot of sense, considering Project 2025 is 48% complete.

An eventful three days of protest

On Thursday, many of us walked to the US Capitol Building with Representative Al Green (D-TX), who announced that he will introduce new articles of impeachment before the end of the calendar year. Additionally, he stated that he will force a vote on the floor of the US House of Representatives.

After walking through the halls of Congress and speaking with several other Representatives and staffers, I joined a group of “Courage Candidates” at a Citizens’ Impeachment press conference at the National Press Club. During the conference, we each provided five-minute remarks on the need to impeach Donald Trump now.

Additionally, I spoke of the need to fix this broken system, which allowed our President and so many others to exploit Americans and crush the working class.

On Friday, we held a Veterans Rally at Union Station. I spoke alongside a ton of military veterans as we called for the impeachment, conviction and removal of Donald Trump.

Then, on Saturday, the Dropkick Murphy’s headlined an incredible rally at the Lincoln Memorial. Over 25,000 Americans from across the country chanted and cheered as speakers like Lieutenant Colonel Anthony Aguilar, Congressional Candidate Kat Abughazaleh, and Jolly Good Ginger called on Congress to uphold the US Constitution.

Donald Trump must be impeached, and not because I dislike him. He must be impeached because he threatens our freedom, our sovereignty, and the rule of law. He is unfit to be the American President.

I endorse articles of impeachment against Donald Trump for tyranny and treason, and I commit to bringing these articles to the floor on day one of my first term in elected office.

If a Democrat violates the US Constitution, I will hold them accountable, too. Loyalty to party should never outrank loyalty to country, the Constitution, and the American people.

Impeachment is only the beginning of my commitment to a Constitution that protects all people in America. We must get big money out of politics, tax billionaires and corporations their fair share, and invest in our communities.

We must fight for the rights of every American, including every immigrant and every LGBTQIA+ person who were told they don’t belong. Bigotry has no place in a republic built with liberty and justice for all.

It’s on us, today, to build a better future for us and for our children. The status quo isn’t working, and I don’t want to hear another democrat defend it. This stagnation has gone on for far too long. It’s time to take our country back, together, as the UNITED States of America.

Thanks for reading! I will continue to post at least one article per week.
