🪡 Thank you to everyone who showed up, and we’ll be sharing upcoming class offerings soon.

Together, we’re building our skills to challenge fascism as it rolls down our city streets.

🪡 This was such a huge success that we are looking at doing not only an additional class of the same curriculum, but expanding to a more in-depth training. If this was ‘Street Medic 101’, we’ll also be doing a ‘Street Medic 102’, as well as collaborating with Wound Walk for CPR certification.

🧵Our First Aid for Protesters event on Saturday was a huge success! We gave out first aid kits and Narcan to every attendee, and spent nearly 3 hours learning with Wound Walk as much material about first aid in a protest setting as possible. We also raised over $500 for @woundwalk !

Prop 50 PASSES in California, with massive voter turnout and large early margins towards YES in Orange County.

This group included many of our local SoCal fascist offenders, including Luke Dennis of HB, who coordinated much of these actions. Many of these people are deeply tied to elected officials in SoCal.

These losers bought and paid for their own flags this weekend to do crafts with; the Progress Pride Flag, the Trans Pride Flag, and the Palestinian flag. Again, they didn’t steal ours, they spent their own money to do this. Thanks for supporting the Pride Flag industry, babes.

Proud Boy Crafting Hour in Chino across from our protest against the Christian Nationalist summit.

The group, made up almost entirely of Proud Boys & convicted J6ers painted over the flag with a White Christian Nationalist symbol. They seemed very proud of their little arts and crafts project.

Behind Hibbs in this photo is Tony Perkins, the president of the Family Research Council.

The FRC, who sponsored the summit, has been labeled an anti-LGBTQ hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center.

Perkins smiled as hundreds of people chanted “Shame” at him.

Thank you to the ~1,000 people who came out to the “Expose, Unite, Resist” protest our coalition held this 10/17-10/18. This protest stood in opposition to the Christian Nationalist summit in Chino.

Christofascist and host Jack Hibbs came out at one point, and we got to call him out to his face.

Trump is trying to rig our elections. Don’t let him - let’s get on an equal playing field.

HB Mayor Pat Burns is gaining a reputation for his regular mockery of his constituents. We’re asking why this behavior is being allowed - especially as he is regularly violating the Brown Act.

@agrobbonta.oag.ca.gov are you watching these meetings?

🧵A week ago, these words were spoken at the HB city council meeting by local Proud Boy Luke Dennis.

Along with accusations towards @chriswarcraft.bsky.social and OVSD Trustee Clayton-Tarvin, his suggestion that he thinks that Kanan is capable of 💀 is an incredibly dangerous one.

Hey friends - we’ve been working extremely hard on efforts to protect queer lives in Orange County. But we’re struggling to do this work with our limited resources - and queer, trans lives are in extreme danger now more than ever.

Please help us protect our community.

ABC Disney has chosen to capitulate to a fascistic crackdown on Free Speech from the FCC.

Join us tomorrow night from 7-9 as we rally to protest this cowardice, and find more ways to fight fascism. We protest, we network, we find work to do.

Defend Free Speech.

🪡 Our representative points out that Leandra Blades is affiliated with the IG page where the witch hunt began, and that she went on the Andy Falco podcast.

Blades breaks in after his comment concludes, saying that she’s allowed to interject to respond to “slander” and claims it’s a lie.

It’s not.

🪡 A man speaks about his concern about “a transgender being placed in the classroom”.

He says he doesn’t have any issues with the teacher, to widespread audible eye-rolls.

While he speaks, an attendee holds up a sign advocating for trans equality.
September 10, 2025 at 2:17 AM
🪡 Most of the speeches so far have been supportive of the existence of LGBTQ+ teachers.

A person wearing a “Sonja Shaw for CA Superintendent of Education” shirt spoke about the ‘trauma’ to students for having to be taught by trans teachers.
September 10, 2025 at 2:10 AM
🪡 A number of well known figures are in attendance, including the husband of Jessica Tapia, who has been grifting with attacks on trans kids for several years now.
September 10, 2025 at 1:32 AM
🧵We’re reporting from PYLUSD tonight, as an effort to stir up a witch hunt against trans teachers in the district is distracting from real governance.

Nothing is on the agenda regarding this teacher, but Trustee Blades and groups affiliated with her have encouraged a heavy showing.

Follow along.
