The Election is Over. Biden Won. Trump Lost.
But He’s Still Trying to Steal the Election.
NO! Trump/Pence OUT NOW!

Refuse Fascism is organizing national protests this Saturday: Washington, DC, New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, Philadelphia, and many other cities. In Washington, DC, RefuseFascism.org will hold a non-violent protest of the “Million MAGA March” at 11:30 am on the 14th Street side of Freedom Plaza.

The media has declared Biden the clear winner of the Electoral College and the popular vote. This is a very good thing, but the struggle is far from over.

Trump is spreading lies about his “victory” and refuses to accept Biden’s victory, as his campaign files multiple, baseless lawsuits. The GOP is so far backing Trump’s outrageous claims and his DOJ has authorized Federal prosecutors to interfere in the election. Trump is putting his fanatical backers in top Pentagon positions, mobilizing his MAGA mobs, including to rally in Washington DC on Saturday, and perhaps plotting other moves.

Andy Zee, of the RefuseFascism.org Editorial Board, says: “People poured their hearts into voting against Trump. They fought through outrageous moves by Trump and the Republi-fascists to deny them the vote. And Biden has decisively won, and they rightly celebrated. We must not allow the Trump/Pence Regime to illegitimately overturn this election. That is why it is so urgent that people come out on Saturday to say NO! to Trump who is still trying to steal the election.”

“There are two reasons Trump must go.” says Coco Das of the RefuseFascism.org Editorial Board. “First, the election is over. Biden won. Trump lost – he’s gotta go. Second, fascism is never legitimate. So we cannot let Trump and his supporters dominate the public space and public discourse,” says Das.

“The people must seize this moment, staying in the streets, non-violent but determined to get Trump and Pence out of the White House,” Das continues. “We must enter a new phase of non-violent struggle that goes all the way to driving this regime out of power and driving their hateful vicious agenda out of society. Trump lost, he has to go and our side must unite, organize, and mobilize to thwart any attempts at an illegitimate power grab.”
