Breitbart's Steve Bannon was just appointed as chief strategist and senior council to Donald Trump, and it's...well, terrifying. Bannon's site has been accused of promoting racist, sexist, and anti-semitic rhetoric, so many people are understandably concerned—including Lena Dunham.
In an effort to stop Bannon from climbing the political ladder, the Girls creator called Paul Ryan to express her dismay. Unfortunately he didn't answer, so she left a voicemail.

Dunham's message may have been cut short, but you can make your voice heard by calling Speaker Ryan at 202-225-3031. At some point, he has to listen.
