Ahead of the inauguration of Donald Trump, American Bridge 21st Century President Pat Dennis released the following statement:
“Donald Trump’s administration will be a vehicle to serve far-right extremists, the ultra-rich, large wealthy corporations, and our nation’s adversaries – all at the expense of the American people.
“Trump and the MAGA extremists in Congress have their sights set on repealing vital health care and retirement programs for millions of the most vulnerable Americans. At the same time, Trump and his incoming economic team have called extending tax cuts for the wealthiest people in the nation ‘the single most important economic issue of the day,’ while also touting steep tariffs that will raise the price of essential goods and cost working households thousands of dollars.
“From Project 2025 architect Russell Vought’s desire to cut funding for Social Security, Medicaid, and Medicare to RFK Jr.’s dangerous crusade against life-saving vaccines, at every level, Trump’s administration is full of extremists who will wreak havoc on the American people.
“From the moment Donald Trump came down his golden escalator, American Bridge 21st Century has worked to uncover his extreme policy ideas, self-serving corruption, and disturbing acts of sexual harassment and abuse. Now more than ever it is important to hold accountable Trump and Republicans who put MAGA above country.
“Ahead of Trump’s inauguration, American Bridge launched MAGAFiles, an open-source research and messaging project, using Bridge’s vast and effective opposition research apparatus, to ensure that no dangerous ideologues hand-picked by Trump escape scrutiny.
“This incoming administration is already cozy with wealthy special interests who want to raid vital programs that help Americans to fund a tax giveaway to those at the very top. The American people deserve to know what these self-serving extremists are up to, and American Bridge’s investigative capacity has already been turned over to monitoring their actions.
“Americans deserve to know exactly to whom Donald Trump is delegating federal authority, what they believe, and what they’ve done. We have years of opposition research and tracking video on the dangerous figures closest to Trump, and it is immediately available to anyone covering the new administration. Call us.”
