Vote to restore stability

| March 5, 2025 1:00 AM

To Senator Daines, Senator Sheehy and Rep. Zinke: 

The United States, your constituents, and the world watch as President Trump wantonly destroys government agencies, ignores the rule of law, places unfit deconstructionists in his cabinet, places the United States security in jeopardy by siding with Putin and abandoning Ukraine & NATO. Trump joyfully rides on the shoulders of a controlling billionaire white supremacist and appears to have lost his mind. 

As he employs stark Christian nationalist racist laws, removes freedoms, abandons human and women’s rights, destroys the safeguard of truth in media, bans books, destroys public education and forces our military into border service, he ignores the rule of law that has governed our country for centuries. 

Wiping websites clear of DEI and enforcing this ban across the country by removing government funding imposes racism as a governing rule that is grossly un-American. 

Abandoning Ukraine and saying they caused the war is insane. We all saw the evil war criminal Putin poised on the border waiting to make his move, yet Trump has aligned us with Russia. Two of you are Veterans who defended our country. You ran on your military records. All of you have taken the oath of office to defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic, yet you have voted lock-step tyrant Trump. 

Trump has abandoned his oath of office. In supporting him and his actions you are abandoning yours and the people of the United States. You must defend democracy. 

I read the 2025 Mandate. I expected this doom-state. I meet Montanans harmed by Trump’s actions, layoffs, high prices and constant lies. 

You can restore stability to the United States. Will you use your vote to help us say once again, “I am proud to be an American?”
