Trump’s brazen defiance of a Supreme Court order to facilitate the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia from a Salvadoran torture prison is truly a watershed moment for our teetering democracy. This crisis won’t be resolved through the courts. The only way forward is massive public pressure. 🧵

The second step: Make your elected officials feel the heat. Democrats are in the minority, but not without power. Republicans are less likely to speak out against the administration, but they will if they’re getting enough blowback on this (the kind of blowback we’re already seeing at town halls).

Whether you’re represented by a Democrat or Republican in Congress, call them NOW and demand they speak out against Trump’s defiance of the Supreme Court, push for an end to these lawless abductions, and move to bring Kilmar Abrego Garcia home immediately.

If your elected officials aren’t answering or their voicemail is full, you can send them an email using this tool (and then call back!). Finally: We’re gonna need popular resistance. We’ve known all along that stopping Trump’s authoritarian takeover will take more than calling members of Congress.
