21 November For Immediate Release PROTEST TODAY NOVEMBER 21 NEW YORK CITY2:00 PM MEET AT COLUMBUS CIRCLEMarch with Body Bags to Trump International HotelMask up, we practice social distancing______ Trump: You Lost. GET THE HELL OUT!STOP Trying to Overturn the Election!STOP Your Murderous COVID Program!STOP Your Dangerous War Moves!STOP Whipping Up MAGA Fascist Mobs!Trump/Pence OUT NOW!“Refuse Fascism will march from Columbus Circle to Trump International Hotel and place body bags in front of the Hotel,” says Travis Morales of Refuse Fascism NYC. “The body bags represent the thousands that are dying and will die because of Trump’s science-denying inaction and sabotage of the incoming Biden/Harris administration’s anti-COVID-19 efforts. 2,000 people died yesterday from COVID-19 as totals continue to shoot up. The body bags also represent the thousands – possibly many thousands – that could be killed in a U.S. attack on Iran.” “The election is over. Biden won. Trump lost. Now he and his fascist regime need to go,” says Coco Das of the RefuseFascism.org Editorial Board. “Trump, awash in his bitter fascist delusion, has not conceded and is now escalating his illegitimate attempts to steal the election by spreading lies of a fraud, bringing baseless lawsuits, backing demands that Detroit’s votes be thrown out, and now conspiring to force Michigan’s legislature to hand him the state’s votes,” says Das. “This blatant attempt to nullify the votes of Black people as part of his fascist coup cannot stand! If Trump won’t respect the election results and start transferring power to Biden, then we must demand that he and his fascist regime pack their bags and go now.” “All this shows that every day Trump remains in the White House, he’s a threat to the election and to human life during the COVID pandemic. Every move Trump makes to illegitimately hold on to power and overturn the election must be met by our side standing up – in the streets – nonviolently, defiantly with justice and an electoral victory behind us to say: “NO! Trump/Pence OUT NOW!” Das emphasizes. In the Name of Humanity, We REFUSE to Accept a Fascist America! |
