24 August For Immediate Release RNC opens – “Grotesque carnival of American fascism determined to impose its nightmarish rule”Refuse Fascism says NO! Trump/Pence OUT NOW!Protest at White House Thursday – Nationwide September 5This week the Republican National Convention will be grotesque carnival of a vicious 21st century American fascism determined to impose its nightmarish rule. Spewing lies, conspiracy theories, and open calls to violence against everyone it brands as its enemies, the Trump/Pence regime will claim a divinely ordained “manifest destiny” to bludgeon into place their hateful program of white supremacy, misogyny, and xenophobia. “Fascist thugs will be hailed as heroes, including Mark and Patricia McCloskey who pointed guns at Black Lives Matter activists as they marched past their home in St. Louis, and high-schooler Nick Sandmann who mocked a Native American protester on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial,” says Carl Dix of RefusesFascism.org. “The snarling faces of fascist operatives – Rudy Giuliani, Tom Cotton, Franklin Graham – will spit, bark, and belch out their war on the world. The genocidal lunacy of Trump and smug Christian patriarchy of Pence will be on full display.” “They will boast about what they’ve already done – resurrecting the Confederacy and Jim Crow, shredding the norms and separation of powers, giving Christian fascists the right to strip women and LGBTQ people of their rights, remaking the laws to turn their fascist vision into reality – AND give us a taste of the revenge, domination, and terror that’s in store for us if Trump wins or steals a second term,” Dix adds. No! As Trump accepts the nomination of his fascist party from the South Lawn of the White House on Thursday night, we must make our own declaration in the name of humanity, demanding: Trump Pence Out Now!“We are speeding toward a showdown over whether a fascist form of rule will be imposed,” says Jamel Mims of RefuseFascism.org. “Every day Trump assaults the election and makes clear he won’t be bound by norms or laws, but will try to remain in power no matter the will of the people. Should a president with his lunatic finger on the nuclear button be allowed to carry out even more fascist moves against the people of this country and the world?” “Now is the time for masses of people in this country to marshal the real power that we have, the power of mass non-violent protest, to make manifest to the world that a force in this country is uniting, organizing, and preparing to struggle with all we’ve got, starting now and not stopping until this regime is gone from power and the fascist program it is bludgeoning into place is forced to a screeching halt,” Mims states. This nightmare must end. The Trump Pence regime must go. In the name of humanity, we refuse to accept a fascist America.Washington DC ProtestsThursday August 27 #TrumpPenceOutNOW Friday August 28 #TrumpPenceOutNOW Contingent Saturday September 5 United Mass Protest Demanding NATIONWIDE – Saturday September 5 United Mass Protests Demanding #TrumpPenceOutNOW |
