Received from the Refuse Fascism

The hearings on the nomination of Amy Coney Barrett to the US Supreme Court opened Monday. Refuse Fascism joined with other groups to protest at the Court at 8 am and engage in civil disobedience at the doors of the Senate. "At stake in this confirmation is not only the tipping of the Supreme Court towards a fascist majority – thereby transforming the highest court in the land more fully into an instrument of fascist atrocity – but this confirmation is part of the fascist coup the Trump/Pence regime is carrying out right now." The Republican Party is barreling ahead with Amy Coney Barrett's installation on the Supreme Court to solidify the Christian fascist majority that will gut the rights of LGBTQ people, women, Black and Brown people, immigrants and all who do not fit their Make America White Again agenda. And Trump has openly declared that he wants his pick installed on the Supreme Court before the election so he'll get a rubber stamp on a second term regardless of the vote count that they are actively suppressing.

Yes, the situation IS urgent and we all must act to wake people up! Join us
