TrumpPence #OutNOW!

Concentration camps on the border... the earth melts and burns... the danger of war, even nuclear... white supremacy rules... fascist mobs and mass murderers... truth and science erased... the right to abortion near gone... democratic and civil rights are stripped away... THIS IS FASCISM UNFOLDING.

The Trump/Pence regime must go now because of the danger it poses to humanity. It must go now because fascism eliminates the right to dissent, undermining every aspiration and struggle for justice... it has direction and momentum that must be stopped before it becomes too late.

Impeachment hearings have begun – opening a new stage of struggle. The Trump/Pence regime and their hardcore base are gearing up and will not give up. The Democratic Party leadership refuses to utter the word Fascism and have conciliated and facilitated the assault on fundamental rights. Any illusions that “we can leave things to the Democrats” or wait til 2020 would be extremely dangerous. The only way to stop is by manifesting the power of millions in the streets. We must seize on the crisis now erupting to take history into our own hands – turning dread for the future into a force for hope.

The world as we have known it is being torn asunder. We must cast off fear and passivity because the future depends on it. Let's refuse to allow our differences to stand in the way of rising together in an unprecedented, unrelenting mass struggle to confront the danger of a Trump/Pence fascist America.
In the Name of Humanity, We REFUSE to Accept a Fascist America!

Received from Revolution Club Chicago

Drop the Charges on Noche Diaz and the Puerto Rican People’s Parade 7!  Hands Off the Revolution Club! We Have the Right to Lift Our Heads!  Seven members of the Revolution Club Chicago, including Noche Diaz of the National Get Organized for an ACTUAL Revolution Tour, are facing trial this fall, stemming from an illegitimate mass arrest by the Chicago Police Department at the 2018 Puerto Rican People’s Parade. The Revolution Club members were surrounded and violently arrested for speaking with people, at a public parade, about the crimes of this system and getting organized for revolution. This arrest is part of a pattern of very similar illegal arrests, as well as ongoing harassment, physical interference and attempted intimidation by the Chicago police of the Revolution Club for speaking in public places. All seven are charged with interfering with a police officer, a misdemeanor charge that carries possibly a year in jail. In addition, Noche is charged with a sound ordinance violation and disorderly conduct, which carry hundreds of dollars in fines. At the Puerto Rican People’s Parade in 2018, the Revolution Club was set up along the parade route where vendors line the streets playing music and selling flags and food. The Revolution Club banner said, “This System Cannot Be Reformed, It Must Be Overthrown,” and there were posterboard displays of the crimes of this system, including the criminal actions of the Trump/Pence regime that caused the deaths of thousands of people in Puerto Rico after Hurricane Maria. Members of the Revolution Club were passing out flyers with the message of how a real revolution is the way out of this mess and can actually be made, calling on people to be part of getting organized for revolution. And they had scheduled a film showing in the park for later that evening, the 2017 speech by Bob Avakian, “The Trump/Pence Regime Must Go! In the Name of Humanity, We REFUSE to Accept a Fascist America, A Better World IS Possible.” Read more here

Today! #OUTNOW! Launches Nationwide!

The Trump/Pence regime is fascist. It won't be bound by rules and will do anything to stay in power. The only thing that can stop them—and ultimately remove them from power—is the people, us, in the streets. Nonviolent... massive... sustained... and growing. Be part of rising to the challenge. Go here for location nearest you. Share this.

Sustain revcom.us, where you can go for timely analysis and revolutionary leadership in this rapidly unfolding crisis We urge you to help us meet our goal of raising $1,000 in new monthly sustainer funds by becoming a sustainer, increasing the amount you sustain, or donating to revcom.us.

#OUTNOW Saturday 10/26 1pm Millenium Park

It begins:
Saturday, October 26
1:00 pm Millennium Park
(Randolph and Michigan)
>> Share the Facebook event
>> Print flyers
>> Print posters
>> Volunteers needed starting at 11:30am; let us know if you can come early to help with set-up, materials, and welcome committee

Why is the objective to drive out the entire regime? The #OUTNOW Call to Action spells out, we’re not stopping until the entire cancer is removed. It is not only Trump, but VP Pence and all the dangerous “end-times” Christian fascists in this regime from State Department head Pompeo to Attorney General Barr to Education Secretary Betsy DeVos — forces whose theological belief system requires “dominion” over all branches of government and all the key pillars of society (and they are very far along!) and world domination achieved through violence in their Holy War versus Muslims and any and all who would stand in their way.

We know you know how crucial funds are. What difference will your contribution make?  Funds are urgently needed for printing costs for flyers, posters, stickers, banners, office and phones, social media ads… and umbrellas (learning from the Umbrella Movement in Hong Kong, which uses umbrellas as passive resistance to being pepper-sprayed). We have lift-off, but if this movement is going to soar, now, your contribution is needed to make that happen.

Highlights from this past weekend:

**Cornel West was joined by 200 in the march from Union Square to Trump Tower.

** The Los Angeles rally featured a football-field sized TRUMP-PENCE #OUTNOW display on Santa Monica Beach and the march was viciously attacked by MAGA fascist thugs. Here is local Fox coverage of the Los Angeles protest, including inspiring drone footage of the rally and the attack by a dozen fascist thugs wielding flag poles who targeted leaders of LA Refuse Fascism and pepper sprayed demonstrators in the eyes.
