Donald Trump is at it again—this time, demanding the Senate cancel its August recess so he can ram through 135 of his dangerous nominees. From extremist judges to unqualified loyalists, Trump is trying to seize control of every level of government—and he’s counting on Senate Democrats to step aside and let him do it.
We cannot let that happen.
Senator Schumer and the rest of the Senate Democratic Caucus still have the power to stop this. They can withhold consent. Deny quorum. Use every rule in the book to delay, obstruct, and fight back. But they won’t act unless they feel the pressure from all of us. That’s where we come in.
Tell Schumer and Senate Democrats: Do everything in your power to block Trump’s extremist nominees.
Let’s be clear—this is not business as usual.
Trump’s nominee list is stacked with loyalists who threaten our rights, our democracy, and the rule of law. Take Emil Bove, Trump’s personal lawyer turned DOJ appointee, now nominated for a lifetime seat on the U.S. Court of Appeals. Bove has been caught ignoring court orders, misleading judges, and refusing to denounce the January 6 attack. He even declined to rule out Trump running for a third term.
Or Jeanine Pirro, the far-right former Fox News host now nominated to be the top federal prosecutor in Washington, D.C. Or Michael Waltz, Trump’s disgraced former national security advisor—resurfacing as Trump’s pick for U.N. ambassador.
These are not normal nominations. These are power plays by an aspiring autocrat.
And yet—right now—some Republicans are trying to cut a deal with Democrats to fast-track these confirmations so they can get out of town for summer break.
We need to make our voices heard. Loudly.
This is no time for Democrats to play nice. We’re demanding they hold the line, hold the floor, and hold Trump accountable. Because if we don’t fight now, these extremists could shape our courts, our laws, and our lives for decades to come.
Demand Senate Democrats use every tool to stop Trump’s nominees.
