Resist Trump: this is a constitutional crisis!

To: Rep. Pressley

From: A verified voter in Jamaica Plain, MA

April 1

I demand that the Congressmember call for Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth and National Security Advisor Michael Waltz to resign immediately due to their reckless and illegal disclosure of national security secrets. Their actions have put our country at risk and immediate accountability is necessary. If they don’t resign, I am asking the Congressmember to call for their impeachment. I also want the Congressmember to demand hearings to establish what other operations may have been exposed, which U.S. servicemembers have been endangered, and what records may have been illegally destroyed. I would like a response and will be following the Congressmember's social media for a statement. We have entered a constitutional crisis. On Saturday evening, federal judge James Boasberg unambiguously ordered the Trump administration not to deport any Venezuelans using the Alien Enemies Act of 1798. The administration ignored him. This is terrifying. No American and especially no president can ignore a judge’s order. We have a system of checks and balances! Without it we cease to be a democracy. What is the Congressmember doing about this? Has she made a statement condemning it? I’d like an answer in writing. Thanks. I’m calling to demand that the Representative stop allowing the Trump administration to defy the Constitution. Congress needs to do its job as a co-equal branch of government to resist Trump’s blatant disregard for the rule of law. I want the Representative to publicly condemn and demand oversight hearings to investigate the Trump administration's open defiance of federal court orders. She should also support articles of impeachment and move to convict Trump for his repetitive defiance of constitutional law. Enough! We don’t have kings in America. Do your job!
