Capitol Switchboard (202-224-3121)

Good afternoon,

My name is [???] and I am a resident of [CITY, STATE] at zip code [12345], and I am highly concerned by our President's escalatory rhetoric surrounding the hostilities between Iran and Israel. Senator Tim Kaine has just filed the War Powers Resolution to Prevent War with Iran, and I want to hear that as my [Senator/Representative], you support this resolution, which underscores that Congress (NOT the President) has the sole power to declare war, as laid out in the Constitution—a document which you swore an oath to uphold. The resolution requires that any hostilities with Iran must be explicitly authorized by a Congressional declaration of war or specific authorization for use of military force, and would not prevent the United States from defending itself from imminent attack. You need to stand up to our President and his reckless warmongering. Will you be supporting this resolution?

If a voicemail: I would like a call back at 123-456-7890 to be informed of your stance on this issue.

Your constituents need to know that you will do everything you can to keep us safe.

Remember: the more difficult you make it for them to realize a report is false, the more useless you make the portal.

I ordered new water bottle stickers and bookbag pins. White background images are from Red bubble, and the rest are from Hearth Kvlt.

Just pointing out one more time that the gutting of our government is DESIGNED to sow trauma/chaos, because the INTENDED OUTCOME is the COLLAPSE of our nation. Curtis Yarvin's "dark enlightenment" seeks a eugenicist collapse of the US and a balkanization of our land into feudal "Network States" run by tech oligarchs, where they become neo-monarchs and the rest of us become either serfs, enforcers, or corpses. This is why Peter Thiel and Praxis want Greenland. They are gunning intentionally for societal collapse so they can divide the spoils. JD Vance is an acolyte of Yarvin.

This is also why their imminent Fort Knox stunt to "go check on the gold" will segue into a looting of our treasury via a federal crypto scam into Trump's "sovereign" account and the pockets of the tech bros. They are also, I'm sure, counting on the current dictator to die soon so Vance can be counted on to carry out the direct wishes of Thiel and his other technocratic masters. Our country is not long for this world if we don't stop this, and FAST.

GOP senators and congressmen are so short-sighted and willing to compromise our liberties and social safety net to score meaningless culture-war victories for their rabid evangelical constituents. They have no idea what is being planned above their pay grade and are enabling it through ignorance.

There are simply too many Christofascists, anarcho-capitalists, and "good Germans" in the way. We can't be as polite as we have been thus far. We need to drop the rules, norms, and bipartisanship and MOBILIZE. But we don't know who the leader of the resistance is, and we are slow to coalesce.

Okay so we have this huge problem with forgetting about everything that’s happened by the time the next election rolls around so I’d like to keep a running list of things as they’re happening to help remind us when the 2026 midterms roll around. And please add to this if I’ve missed anything.
