I joined Rachel Maddow to talk about how Donald Trump is putting our democracy at risk and what our campaign is doing to stop him.
John, I joined Rachel Maddow to talk about how Donald Trump is putting our democracy at risk and what our campaign is doing to stop him.

I’ll explain more in just a moment, but if you already know you’re with us in the fight to protect our rights and our democracy, can you pitch in $3 to support our movement today?
Right now Trump is putting our democracy at risk, and it’s critical that we help people understand what’s happened during periods of democratic backsliding in other countries, especially regarding the resistance movements that emerge to fight back.
That’s exactly why we launched the Resistance Labs.
We’ve developed a curriculum to help folks understand how to go after the pillars of support that allow dictators to remain in power, and how to shift allies from being passive opponents to being active supporters of the resistance movement.
Threaded throughout are Dr. King’s principles of nonviolent resistance, and we work to plug people into actions that are happening right now in their communities, and also to prepare folks for potential moments of coordinated resistance and mass action in the future.
It was amazing to see more than 1,500 people from 31 states join last weekend’s training, and we have even more planned in the near future. No matter how bad things get, I’m inspired by this movement’s resilience and willingness to fight back.
But John, these Resistance Labs are only made possible with your support. I don’t take money from corporations or their PACs — it’s grassroots donors who fund everything we do.
So if you want to help us keep up this critically important work, will you pitch in $3 today? Every dollar adds up to help us continue the fight to preserve and strengthen our democracy.
