We’ve been dragged into Trump's Golden Age of Corruption. We need a game plan to bring it to an end and hold his administration accountable. That means more than voting them out. It means GETTING THE MONEY BACK for the American people. From me. I need to know if this hits. Let me know?

The most important thing right now is to understand the framework because there are a LOT of threats. Yes, it's overwhelming, but easy to understand once you know their playbook! It's the executive override strategy based on 3Ds: deceive, disrupt, deny! protectdemocracy.org/work/executive…

Here's a quick video I posted last month on why we need to take the national emergency scenario very seriously. He talks about it a lot! He's invoked many national emergencies!

THREAD. Given the news that Trump is planning to deliver an *Oval Office* speech Thursday night to abuse his office to spread lies about the elections, we've updated our Executive Override Report to show what we've been tracking over the last few months. protectdemocracy.org/work/executive…

It's the same as his previous attempts in 2020, only this time he has the power of the executive office to attempt to override the results. This is why we call it the Executive Override.

What if I told you reformers in Hungary are beating back MAGA-style authoritarian corruption with a "get the money back" playbook? Would that be something we ought to try here? (YES!) More details from me in this vid here.

New @wapo story today, the Trump family has secured about $3.2 billion in Pentagon contracts for firms which they are involved in. This is the tip of the iceberg in the largest corruption saga in US history.

New speech, same lies. We’ve always known Trump is trying to deceive people with lies about the midterms to disrupt the process and deny results he doesn’t like. This time he’s trying the executive override. Abusing executive power to override results. It’s all a charade.

NEW: Trump's Thursday speech is slated to address newly declassified intelligence reports that the White House asserts reveal plans by foreign nations to interfere in the 2020 election, according to two White House officials granted anonymity to discuss internal plans.
