Donald Trump wants to rule like a king. Across the country, Americans are rising up to remind him — and the leaders in Congress who enable him — that our nation was founded to reject exactly that kind of power. Republican leaders in Congress — including House Speaker Mike Johnson and Senate Majority Leader John Thune — have the power and responsibility to hold the president accountable. Instead, they have repeatedly refused to conduct meaningful oversight as Trump pushes the boundaries of executive power, attacks dissent, and tests the limits of democracy itself. That silence sends a dangerous message. When Congress refuses to act, it signals to any president that they can abuse power without consequences. The framers of the Constitution warned against exactly this scenario. America rejected monarchy nearly 250 years ago, and we cannot allow it to creep back through political cowardice. Sign your name today and demand that Congress fulfill its constitutional duty to oversee the Trump administration and defend the democracy they were elected to protect. The petition to House Speaker Mike Johnson and Senate Majority Leader John Thune reads: “In America, we have no kings. Uphold your constitutional duty to conduct real oversight of the Trump administration and defend our democracy.”
