Team, this is Adam Schiff. The team at Off the Sidelines said I could reach out. I'm not going to sugarcoat it: We're up against a movement that's determined to tear down our democracy and a man in the White House who'll do anything to expand his power. We've got to keep calling out the danger — that's why I'm reaching out today to ask you to chip in to my campaign and Off the Sidelines to help me keep fighting back against Trump's attacks on the rule of law. Recently, on the Senate floor, I laid out ten ways Donald Trump is wrecking this country. Every American should know that Trump is failing us by: 10. Undermining American innovation: Trump is attacking our world-class research institutions and shutting out international talent, limiting our leadership in science, technology, and medicine. 9. Slashing food assistance: He's gutting the supplemental nutrition programs that keep millions of American families healthy and ensure our kids don't go to bed hungry. 8. Abandoning our allies: Trump is weakening our international partnerships, cozying up with dictators, and making America less safe. 7. Sabotaging renewable energy: He's killing clean energy projects, ceding global renewable energy leadership to China, raising utility bills, and making us more dependent on fossil fuels. 6. Damaging public health: He's slashing funding for the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and key research programs, meaning cures will be delayed, clinical trials will end, and life-saving care will be harder to access. 5. Crippling essential services with DOGE cuts: From Social Security to wildfire response to public education, Trump is making major funding cuts without worrying about the impact on families, seniors, and kids across the country who will be hurt. 4. Tanking the economy with tariffs: His trade wars are driving up the costs of everyday goods like clothes and groceries while alienating our allies. 3. Stripping away healthcare: Under Trump's new budget, millions of Americans will lose healthcare coverage. Many rural clinics and hospitals will be forced to close, and all of our healthcare costs will go up. 2. Undermining the rule of law: Trump has been treating the Department of Justice (DOJ) as his own personal political weapon, using it to shield his allies and target his enemies. 1. Threatening the very idea of America: He's eroding the values that built this country: self-governance, equality, and the belief that no one is above the law — not even the president. I know this is a lot. And overcoming it will be hard, especially in the near term when they control everything. But we will take back the government and put an end to this madness. The GOP is trying to flood the zone so that we're too overwhelmed to act. But I also know that we're not powerless, and that we can come together, organize, mobilize, and take our country back from Trump. If you're with me, I hope you'll make a contribution to me and Off the Sidelines today.
