The attacks against transgender people in sports—and in general—are the worst scaremongering campaign of our time.

Here are the facts!

We're here in the park. Come on down and join us!
Join us at St. James Park on Saturday, Aug 2nd. Stand with us against the fascism, against the racism, against the slow degradation of our democracy by the depraved oligarchs who have forgotten just how powerful we, the people, are.

On 8/2, let's bring mutual aid & show up for our neighbors in need

An innocent man was “mistakenly” taken and sent to a foreign prison. The Supreme Court ruled 9-0 he must be brought home — yet he’s still there.

Every day this administration shows just how vile and lawless it remains.

Bring him home!

Donald Trump just announced that he is single-handedly imposing the largest tax increase on consumers in US history. It will hit the poorest of us the hardest. If you really don’t like taxes, but you do like Donald Trump: you get the government you vote for….

Every week, I spend 15 hours compiling all of the protests onto one map, as well as listing 112 links to ways to dissent at home, receive training, and more.

This week there are 437 protests listed, as well as over 800 other opportunities to help listed by state.

Yep, 4-3-7!!!

One in three Californians relies on Medicaid.

But at this very moment, Donald Trump and Elon Musk are planning to wipe it out — and use the proceeds for a tax cut.

I will fight with everything I have, every single day, to stop them.

Nothing will kill more children than the ongoing decimation of CDC, NIH, and USAID work to lift vaccine uptake in the US and world.

BREAKING: Hundreds of Jews and allies have taken over Trump Tower chanting “We want justice, you say how. Bring Mahmoud home now!” and “Fight Nazis, not students.”

The civil disobedience is spawned by the ICE arrest of Palestinian student Mahmoud Khalil.
