CALL TO ACTION #828: Fair Trial – Call Witnesses – Admit New Evidence. (January 20, 2020)


288 Days

Until the November 3rd Election


FAIR TRIAL! CALL WITNESSES!
ADMIT NEW EVIDENCE!


The Senate trial is scheduled to begin tomorrow at 1 p.m. Eastern time.

Last week, House committees transmitted to the Senate new evidence supplied by Giuliani associate and big GOP donor Lev Parnas that:

  • shows the President led the Ukraine extortion scandal,
  • ties in VP Pence, AG Barr, and ranking Intelligence Committee member Rep. Nunes,
  • documents exposing attempts to threaten Rep. Yovanovich’s safety.

Parnas then said on national TV that AG Barr, VP Pence and Rep. Devin Nunes were all in on the plan.

And when Trump claimed he didn’t know Parnas, Parnas posted photos of him with Trump and family members, then warned that he would post a new photo for every time that Trump tweeted that lie.

We need to keep calling Congress and demand a fair trial!

We also must work to vote in a new president and end Republican control of the Senate!


**ACTION ONE: CALL OUR SENATORS**

SAMPLE SCRIPT FOR SENATORS MERKLEY AND WYDEN:

“My name is [–] and I’m a constituent from [town/city], Oregon [zip code]. I am calling today because. . .

. . . I am stunned by the new evidence supplied by Lev Parnas and worried that McConnell will push ahead with a sham trial. A trial that does not consider new evidence or call witnesses is not a fair trial. Please keep pushing for witnesses to be called and new evidence to be considered. Thank you.

Thank you.”

**ACTION TWO: CALL COMPLICIT GREG WALDEN**

SAMPLE SCRIPT FOR WALDEN:

“My name is [–] and I’m a constituent from [town/city], Oregon [zip code]. I am calling today because. . . 

. . . events are proving that House Republicans colluded in covering up the massive Ukraine extortion scheme that was clearly led by Trump and supported by VP Pence, AG Barr, and ranking Intelligence Committee member Devin Nunes. Tell Walden to take a step toward reclaiming a portion of his honor and at the very least support an investigation into threats on Ambassador Yovanovich’s safety.

Greg’s reputation is toast. This lying, corrupt, impeached President’s actions will be on Walden’s head for the rest of his life.

Even after announcing his retirement, Greg continues to signal his full support for trumpism, regardless of how much damage Trump is doing to our democracy and to world stability. Know that we are still here and will continue working to flip ORD2 Blue in 2020.

Thank you.”
