NEWS FROM THE POLITICAL REVOLUTION
HEADLINES: No Kings Day of Defiance | Big Bad Budget Battle |
Fighting Trump’s Crypto Corruption | Citizen Action Team on Capitol
Hill | New Endorsements! | & MORE!
★ ★ ★
Trump is escalating his authoritarianism in ways we’ve never seen —
from his crypto scheme to rake in billions to his push to hand our
data over to tech oligarchs at Palantir to spy on Americans using our
own tax dollars.
On June 14, he’ll make a spectacle of his birthday with a military
parade and literal tanks in the streets of Washington, D.C. It can
all feel so dystopian, but hope is not lost. WE ARE FIGHTING BACK.
Our Revolution, our nearly 60,000 activists, and our allies are
fighting at every turn to block the worst of the Trump agenda — in
the streets and in the halls of Congress. We’re deploying our
activists to confront Senators in person and organizing massive
protests nationwide to make it clear that America has NO KING.
[ [link removed] ]Chip in any amount to help power this critical work in these
uncertain times. Together, we can fight back against the worst of the
Trump regime.

BIG BAD BUDGET BATTLE
Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill” would eliminate health insurance for
over 10 million Americans, take food away from 4 million children,
cut Medicare and Medicaid by more than $1 trillion, and give the top
1% a $664 billion tax break.
With Trump and Elon Musk feuding over the bill, and masses of
Americans standing in unison to oppose it, there’s a real chance to
make an impact.
We’re keeping the heat on GOP Reps, with our activists directly
confronting many of them in the halls of Congress — and with
grassroots support, we’ll continue this work on Capitol Hill until
Republicans break.
When we encountered Rep. [ [link removed] ]Rich McCormick (GA-7), he literally RAN
up three flights of steps to avoid accountability for his support for
TRILLIONS to the Pentagon and wealthy billionaires at the expense of
healthcare and essential programs.
We only need to pick off a few Republicans, and some are already
showing weakness. Our direct organizing paired with Bernie’s rallies
in key red districts turned up the heat, leading 12 GOP Congress
members to publicly denounce the Medicaid cuts.

NO KINGS DAY OF DEFIANCE
On June 14th, Trump will celebrate his birthday with an authoritarian
spectacle, with tanks rolling through the streets of our nation’s
capital.
It will be a horrifying display fitting of a dictator, but our
movement is rising up to drown it out and show Trump who’s really in
charge of this democracy — we the people!
The next MASSIVE nationwide protest is just ONE WEEK AWAY with 1,475
events coming together for No Kings Day of Defiance on June 14th.
We will be showing up in force from cities to small towns — from
Philly and Los Angeles to Bowie, MD, and Steamboat Springs, CO — we
will be all across the nation, demonstrating the strength of the
opposition against Trump and his regime.

[ [link removed] ]GET YOUR PROTEST PACK
Organizing protests coast to coast isn’t easy, and we rely on the
grassroots to power these actions, from boots on the ground to
setting up sound systems and providing transportation. [ [link removed] ]Chip in a
few bucks or whatever you can afford to help us make this HUGE!!

FIGHTING CRYPTO CORRUPTION
The GOP is pushing a crypto bill — the so-called “GENIUS Act” — which
would allow the Trump family to make billions while destabilizing our
economy and leaving working people vulnerable to scams.
Our Revolution activists and allies greeted the Grifter-in-Chief and
his crypto financiers as they arrived at Trump National Golf Club to
buy influence with the president.
We were joined by Sen. Jeff Merkley and our allies at Public Citizen
to make it clear that AMERICA IS NOT FOR SALE. “This is the Mount
Everest of corruption,” the senator said.
The [ [link removed] ]NY Times, [ [link removed] ]Common Dreams, and many other news outlets took
notice, amplifying our action to crack down on Trump’s crypto
corruption.
Joseph Geevarghese, executive director of [ [link removed] ]Our Revolution, said
Trump's meme coin is worthless without the access it buys. "Invest in
the coin and you'll get a seat at the table," he said. "We're here to
send a message to Trump: Our democracy is not for sale."
Our activists shouted 'shame, shame, shame' as the presidential
motorcade arrived. And, the White House felt the heat, putting out a
video of Trump saying he puts “the country way ahead of the
business.” Sureeee.

US Senators Elizabeth Warren and Jeff Merkley joined our [ [link removed] ]LIVE
Town Hall to break down Trump's crypto corruption — and this week,
our activists took to Capitol Hill to bird-dog Congress members —
including senators like [ [link removed] ]Cory Booker, who joined 15 other
Democrats to advance the bill.
Our Revolution also held a virtual town hall on Tuesday to hold Sen.
Angela Alsobrooks accountable for her vote for the GOP crypto bill.
The senator didn’t show up, but our movement did. And on Thursday, we
delivered your messages directly to Alsobrooks’ office and asked her
why she would enable Trump’s crypto corruption and empower the tech
oligarchs.
This is more than just about crypto — it’s about taking a stand
against the billionaire takeover of our government. [ [link removed] ]Sign the
petition and stop the crypto power grab!

NEW ENDORSEMENTS!
We’re proud to endorse Adelita Grijalva for Congress in Arizona’s 7th
District! She isn’t just carrying the progressive legacy of her
father, Rep. Raúl Grijalva — she’s blazing her own trail as a bold,
principled leader.
As a Tucson City Council member and former school board president,
she’s been on the front lines fighting for Medicare for All, climate,
education, reproductive freedom, immigrant rights, and more.
Adelita is a lifelong fighter for working families who has proven
she's unafraid to stand up to corporate power and deliver real
solutions. Her campaign is people-powered—and we’re all in to help
send her to Congress.

Our Revolution proudly endorses Troy Jackson for Governor of Maine!
Troy isn’t your typical politician—he’s a logger, union leader, and
lifelong fighter for working people. He’s stood shoulder to shoulder
with workers on the picket line and never backed down from the
corporate elites.
As President of the Maine Senate, Troy delivered results: expanding
health care, lowering prescription drug prices, fighting for paid
family leave, and protecting collective bargaining rights. He’s
helped make Maine a leader on climate jobs and renewable energy,
while always putting working families, not wealthy donors, first.
That’s why Bernie is endorsing Troy, too:
“We need candidates who, unequivocally, will stand with working-class
families against the enormous power of the monied interests.”
With Trump and the billionaire class trying to tighten their grip on
power, we need governors like Troy Jackson—leaders who aren’t bought,
who won’t sell out, and who are ready to fight for the rest of us.

We’re happy to announce our endorsement of David Seligman for
Colorado Attorney General!
David is a proven champion for workers’ rights, economic justice, and
corporate accountability—and he’s running to put the power of the law
on the side of everyday people, not the wealthy and well-connected.
Founder of Towards Justice, David has spent his career fighting wage
theft, forced arbitration, and corporate abuse—using the legal system
to stand up for working families and challenge economic injustice at
its roots.

up and down the ballot — every dollar helps!

UPCOMING ELECTION!
On June 17th — just one week from Tuesday! — Joshua Cole will be on
the ballot for re-election to Virginia’s House of Delegates.
Joshua has stood out as a progressive leader, championing policies
that prioritize working families and social justice. He’s been a
strong advocate for affordable healthcare, raising wages,
tuition-free community college, and much more.

VICTORY IN PHILLY!
Congratulations to Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner for
his victory in the Democratic primary. His commitment to ending mass
incarceration, abolishing cash bail, and tackling corruption sets a
national standard.
From exonerating nearly 50 wrongfully convicted to reducing the
juvenile incarceration rate by 70% to cutting future incarceration
days by half - saving taxpayers millions and reuniting families -
Krasner’s leadership has transformed Philly's justice system.
