Today’s Action: Block the #FakeNationalEmergencyl
On Monday, thousands of Americans gathered in the streets across the country to protest Trump’s #fakenationalemergency to build his wall. This illegal, undemocratic move entirely skirts the will of the people: 6 in 10 Americans are against it, Congress deliberately did NOT vote for it, and the ‘crisis’ is a manufactured and salacious lie to please Trump’s Twitter fanclub (which is how he makes most of his decisions).
To add insult to injury, Trump has raised the wall spending from $5.7 to $8 billion…and American taxpayers are definitely the ones paying for it.
There is NO emergency (undocumented immigrant numbers have actually dropped), and it’s up to the courts, to Congress, and to us to work in tandem to stop this dictatorial power grab.
Using a state of emergency for an unwanted, unneeded monument to xenophobia is hardly legal. But it’s been used to justify Japanese internment camps and post-9/11 torture…and the wall would fall into the same shameful camp. Unless Congress stops it.
Congress is a ruling body equal to the presidency. For two years, Republicans in both chambers bent over backward to give Trump what he wanted. Now, Trump needs to grow up past a toddler’s understanding of negotiation and learn that throwing a tantrum won’t get him anywhere.
