Action Alert: The Public should be allowed to view and listen to the Trial of the Former President. Click here to send a message.
To ensure public trust and faith in the judicial system, the public must be allowed to view and listen to the upcoming trial(s) of the former president who has been indicted and arraigned for 78 criminal charges which include: taking the peoples documents, obstruction, violating the espionage act, and conspiracy to rob American’s of their vote and overthrow democracy.
We agree with Representative Schiff’s statement:
Esteemed lawyer Neal Katyal wrote in an opinion piece for the Washington Post:
Most important, live (or near-live) broadcasting lets Americans see for themselves what is happening in the courtroom and would go a long way toward reassuring them that justice is being done. They would be less vulnerable to the distortions and misrepresentations that will inevitably be part of the highly charged, politicized discussion flooding the country as the trial plays out.
The reputation and integrity of the United States Court system is under dispute. The great work of judges, lawyers, and all who assist our legal system on a daily basis deserve our thanks and respect. However, there is a deep mistrust happening in America, and all of us must speak out and demand transparency and accountability of our judicial system.
Additionally the protection of state secrets as well as hiding the identities of the jurors must be a priority as the case(s) are televised (sidebars, muting audio, pointing the camera away from jurors, etc. are all ways to protect them.) Former president Donald Trump and his supporters will not be allowed to manipulate the media, narrative, or facts coming from inside a courtroom. Facts are facts.
Former president Donald Trump deserves a fair and speedy trial and we must presume him innocent until proven guilty. The public who fund (by way of taxes) and operate the legal system (by way of elections and jury participation), should be allowed to view and listen to the trial.
We are sending a letter directly to the court(s) and Congress to advocate for transparency and accountability, can you take 1 (one) minute and send a message?
Please share our Twitter post and/or share our Facebook post.
Thanks for taking action for transparency and accountability!

Thank you for sending hope and in demanding that “we the People” are in fact “not above the law” but a driving force in giving that statement validity!
