INSIDER NEWS FROM THE FRONTLINES OF THE POLITICAL REVOLUTION

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

HEADLINES: Fight Trump & The Oligarchs | Stop Musk | The Climate Fightback
Begins | We Beat the Elite: DNC Election Results! | Building Down-Ballot
Resilience | & MORE!

★ ★ ★

While Congressional Democrats dither in DC, Trump and the Oligarchs are
aggressively moving to consolidate control over our government by engaging
in unlawful and unConstitutional acts by:

* Purging career civil servants and busting unions;
* Firing independent Inspector Generals and Commissioners of the EEOC,
FDA;
* Embedding loyalists and top lieutenants of CEOs in top posts;
* Gagging experts at agencies across the government, including the CDC
and EPA;
* Breaking into sensitive databases and mining citizen private data;
* Weaponizing the DOJ and the FBI against opponents…

Trump and the Oligarchs are trying to break the guardrails of our fragile
democracy. We will not let them.

We are organizing citizens across our Republic to stand up to this corrupt
regime, and we’re demanding a unified opposition from the Democratic
Congressional Leaders.

Collaboration is unacceptable.
That means no more Senate Dems breaking ranks to vote yes on any of
Trump’s dangerous nominees. It means no more House members shirking their
responsibility to hold the Oligarchs accountable. We must stand united to
stop the slide into authoritarian capitalism.

(We’ll deliver the message straight to their Senate offices, and keep up
the temperature with a flood of calls demanding the same).

We’re fighting for our future by mobilizing a Citizen Army of grassroots
activists to fight back against Trump and the Oligarchs, seizing the reins
of the Democratic Party, and electing the next generation of Progressives
in hundreds of down-ballot races across the country.

Read more below about how we’re fighting on our 3-point plan to Defeat
Trump & the Oligarchs, Transform the Democratic Party, and Elect
Progressives up and down the ballot in 2025.

[ [link removed] ]It’s up to us to create a well-organized and effective opposition to
the Trump regime. We are not powerless in this moment, but we need your
help! Please pitch in a donation to help fund our fightback.

★ ★ ★

Oligarchy is no longer at the gate, it’s busting its way through the house
— and we need our movement to be activated.

This means getting in the streets, showing up in Senate offices, raising
the pressure through media and targeted actions, and mounting a public
show of force that cannot be ignored.

That’s why we’re building out our Citizen Action Team — 30,000 strong and
growing — with organizing networks in Washington D.C. and every
congressional district in the country.

Our Citizen Action Team will meet this Thursday, Feb. 13, at 8:30 pm ET /
5:30 PT. Hop on the Zoom to learn about the actions we’re already taking
and the different ways you can be involved as we Fight Trump and the
Oligarchs.

Trump is on a mission to ‘Drill Baby Drill’ and he has forged an unholy
alliance between Big Oil and Big Tech to ravage our planet — but we are
not powerless.

This week, we’re kicking off our national End Polluter Handouts Campaign
to halt the worst of the Oil Oligarchs’ agenda.

Our powerful coalition - made-up of Our Revolution, Sunrise, Friends of
the Earth, Zero Hour, Greenpeace, the Hip Hop Caucus, Oil Change
International and dozens of other organizations - are joining forces to
block Trump’s money pipeline to Big Oil.

Sign-up to be part of our LIVE Climate Fightback Kickoff Call this Monday!
We’ll hear from leading climate organizers, including Aru Shiney-Ajay,
Director the Sunrise Movement; Erich Pica, President of Friends of the
Earth; Jaime Minden, Organizing Director of Zero Hour; and Tefere Gebre,
Chief Program Officer of Greenpeace USA.

[ [link removed] ]RSVP NOW and we’ll send you a reminder to tune in LIVE at 8:30pm
ET/5:30 PT on Monday, Feb. 10th.

On Wednesday at 1pm ET at the US Capitol, our Coalition to End Polluter
Handouts will join Members of Congress to voice our public opposition to
Trump’s fossil-fueled frenzy. We’ll be joined by US Rep. Ilhan Omar and
other progressive champions.

[ [link removed] ]Join us IN-PERSON on Capitol Hill!

This will be followed by a “Climate Revival” featuring award winning
actress / singer Antonique Smith and Rev. Lennox Yearwood of the Hip Hop
Caucus.

The event starts at 7pm at the Lutheran Church of the Reformation at 212
E. Capitol St. NE, Washington DC, 20003 — hope you can make it!

BEATING BACK THE PARTY ELITE

To defeat Trump and the Oligarchs, we need a true Opposition Party that
isn’t bought by the billionaires. That’s why Our Revolution organized to
beat back the Political Establishment - and its billionaire backers - to
elect Ken Martin to serve as the new chair of the Democratic National
Committee.

Ken - chair of the Minnesota state party - defeated his main rival who was
backed by Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer, and bankrolled by billionaires
like Reid Hoffman and ‘liberal’ dark money groups.

Even though only 448 DNC party insiders got to vote, Our Revolution’s
grassroots-powered Citizen Action Team: Hold the Party Accountable worked
to make sure our voices were heard - we hosted the only grassroots DNC
Candidate Forum of the race, sent letters, and made calls.

Even though we’ve won, our work is not done. Our Revolution Leader Joseph
Geevarghese wrote in [ [link removed] ]The Nation about how the grassroots must hold the
new Democratic leadership accountable.

“The decades-long dependence on billionaires has fundamentally undermined
the Democratic Party’s credibility as an opposition party. Democrats
claimed to be the party of the working class—while still taking money from
the same elites who rig the system,” Joseph wrote.

“If the party is serious about becoming a true opposition force, it must
now fully commit to a grassroots fundraising model—one that rejects
corporate influence and restores faith in its ability to fight for
working-class Americans.”

★ ★ ★

In addition to electing a new DNC chair, we also organized to elect Jane
Kleeb — an Our Revolution founding board member and climate activist — as
the next President of the Association of State Democratic Chairs (ASDC)
and Vice Chair of the Party.

Jane, who also serves as Chair of the Nebraska Democratic Party, is
committed to investing resources in State Parties and strengthening
grassroots organizing.

With true insurgents like Ken and Jane at the top of the Party, it’s time
to ramp up our work to hold Democrats accountable to working people, not
billionaires and corporate consultants.

[ [link removed] ]Our Revolution is one of the only grassroots political groups doing
this work inside the party. Can you chip in to help us keep up the
pressure for change?

★ ★ ★

With our impact on the direction of new DNC leadership, we now have a
foothold to push for real change in the party. So far, more than 10,000
grassroots volunteers, donors and local leaders have signed on demanding
these necessary party reforms.

It’s time for the Democratic party to reject corporate money, increase
transparency and accountability and rebuild a multiracial, working-class
base. Let’s get to work to grow our power in the party, recenter the
working class, regain voter trust, and win crucial elections.

2025 isn’t an off-year for elections -- in fact, there are thousands of
races at the state and local level with progressives running for mayor,
city council, state offices, and more.

Our goal is to build power. Our movement elected a progressive voting bloc
in Congress with the Progressive Caucus — and this year is a chance to do
the same in cities and counties across the country.

Proof of concept: In St. Louis, Our Revolution Board Member Megan Green
ran for city alderman and realized she needed allies serving alongside her
to move a progressive agenda. So she partnered with Our Revolution and ran
progressive slates over multiple cycles, creating a governing majority in
the city — from mayor to council and more.

If progressives are going to build power in the United States, we have to
return to our roots and do it from the bottom up.

If you’re a candidate running for election or re-election, join Megan
Green and the Our Revolution Political Team for a 2025 Candidate Meetup to
learn about our endorsement process and how we support candidates with
strategic resources to win elections and build power for the long haul.
