John,
For $50 (plus shipping), you can now wear your fascism on your head!
Yes, the official Trump website is selling “Trump 2028” hats. We wish we were kidding. Not only are they ugly, but they’re a symbol of how Trump thinks he can bulldoze over laws that protect us from tyranny, because somehow they don’t apply to him….
We’re used to Trump’s nonsense. His whole brand is grifting and pushing boundaries, so no, this isn’t shocking. But pushing third-term merch is a lot, even for him.
And while we can laugh at his ugly, overpriced merch, we can’t afford to get desensitized. That’s how they slip dangerous things past us — by making the absurd seem normal.
You can’t run for a third term. That’s the law. The 22nd Amendment exists. But Trump treats laws like suggestions, especially when they get in his way.
This is all part of a coordinated push to dismantle democracy — bit by bit. And history shows that when democracy is under attack, Black communities are among the first to feel the consequences.
We’re not waiting for the worst to happen. We’re organizing now — and we need you with us.
Since day one of Trump in office we’ve fought to protect the Department of Education, fought to get Harriet Tubman’s image on the National Park Service’s Underground Railroad page, called out the administration’s illegal kidnappings on college campuses, and more.
If you’re with us, can you chip in $5 or whatever you can to fund the work this moment demands?
If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:
Thanks for being with us,
Black Lives Matter
P.S. You can also support us by purchasing some of our fire merch. Rep the cause, not the cult! Our merch sends a message louder than any red hat.
Our grassroots movement is pushing for Black liberation every single day. We are striving to create a world where Black people do so much more than just survive. It’s time we thrive.
As an organization one of our biggest hurdles is consistency.
A recurring contribution of anything you can afford goes a long way as we plan for the months, years, and even decades ahead. This is the most effective way for small-dollar donors (like you) to power our Black liberation work.
Will you make a recurring contribution of $5 or more today so that we can keep building momentum for our movement?
