We all feel it – the atrocities are relentless. Another right snatched away. Someone else disappeared. Due process shredded. Law firms targeted. Universities threatened. Books banned. Immigrants shipped to overseas forever-prisons. Trump promises to disappear “home-growns” (US citizens) next. Trans people banned from the military. It feels impossible to keep up.

We cannot win by chasing each attack as it comes, overwhelmed and outmatched by the vicious speed of Trump’s fascist regime. Nor can we wait until 2026 or 2028.

But there is a way to win – a way to defeat this fascist juggernaut.

It is time to come together to take the offense against the whole damn thing — infusing “TRUMP MUST GO NOW! into all the resistance movements forging a mighty force to stop the regime from carrying out its horrific fascist assault on people here and around the world.

On the back of this flyer, the Call to Conscience/Call to Act breaks down the strategy to oust this regime through mass, sustained, nonviolent protest and resistance. Read it. Sign it at RefuseFascism.org/act. Spread it to others.

Then, On May 17, join with others across this country to make a big leap in projecting this demand – Trump Must Go Now! – to the tens of millions who are heartsick and furious about all Trump is doing. Let them see there is a movement for them to join with a real strategy to win. Keep raising this demand all summer long, including at the nationwide protests called for June 14, “No Kings Day”!

If we act with courage and heart, if we unite all who can be united from diverse political perspectives, we have the numbers and the power to reclaim the future.

In the Name of Humanity, We Refuse to Accept A Fascist America!​

Refuse Fascism’s Mission in 2025: 

Refuse Fascism leads people to understand and resist Trump/MAGA fascism. We unite with people from diverse perspectives to stop the second Trump regime from consolidating power and carrying out great horrors. Through our podcast and other public programs we expose and analyze the threat we face, promote efforts to defend people targeted by the fascists, and most essentially challenge and inspire the non-fascist majority of people living in the United States, the tens of millions of people who care about humanity and hate what Trump represents, to break out of the deadly confines of politics-as-usual and engage in determined, defiant action to defeat this American Fascism.

… READ AND SHARE THE ENTIRE MISSION STATEMENT


The Refuse Fascism Podcast…

is an essential tool for understanding and uniting to defeat the American fascist movement that imperils all of humanity. Each week host Sam Goldman provides commentary and analysis alongside in-depth interviews with scholars and activists from diverse perspectives on the very real threat of fascism coming to power in the United States.
