John,

The very foundations of our society are not just being eroded, they’re being torn to shreds.

From Trump’s government shut down, which he is using to further dismantle our government and enact his cruel agenda―to troops in our streets, from Portland to Chicago to Memphis, illegally violating the Posse Comitatus Act―to ICE’s racial profiling, which is a violation our 14th Amendment right to equal protection―to dark site detention camps where our right to due process is being ignored, we cannot stay silent.

This week, Trump even told an auditorium full of military brass that he and Defense Secretary Hegseth plan to use our cities as “training grounds” for the U.S. military.

We cannot remain on the sidelines.

That’s why, the next round of No Kings rallies on Saturday, October 18th are so critical to defending our democracy. Click here to find one near you.

In June, 5 million people across the country stood up and said in one clear voice that in America, there are No Kings. But since then, Trump has continued to shred our Constitution, Republicans have shut down the government at Trump’s urging, and he’s sent troops into even more cities to silence dissent and terrorize our communities.

I will never stop standing up to billionaire bullies and speaking truth to power. I’ll continue speaking out for our rights and our humanity, even if my voice shakes.

Please, use the link above to find a No Kings rally near you. There are also additional resources on the website, including a training this coming Monday on protest safety and de-escalation and knowing your rights. And, if there isn’t yet a No Kings event in your community, you can also use the link above to register your own No Kings event.

To power our resistance movement, I need you by my side. Donate today to help me hold this lawless president accountable and defend our communities from his attacks.
