Turn up the heat on all fronts. To mitigate the damage Trump’s ongoing criminal enterprise is doing to our country, we have to keep him on the defensive.

The Trump regime is now building concentration camps in multiple states. One is being built in Texas at Fort Bliss, an Army base. They also intend to build camps at New Jersey and Indiana military bases as well.

🚨 The Senate is voting soon on cuts to public broadcasting, global health programs, and foreign aid funds. This would dismantle local NPR and PBS stations, yet another way the Trump regime is attacking institutions. Use 5calls.org or call 202-224-3121 to tell Senators to vote NO on the Rescission.
Poster titled “Tell Your Senators: Vote NO on the Rescission Package” with the “AID on the HILL” logo. Subheading in red says: “These GOP Senators Have the Most Power to Stop the Cuts.” The text explains that members of the Senate Appropriations Committee control federal funding, and the proposed rescission bill would cancel $8.3 billion in already-approved humanitarian and development aid.

Two red columns list the following GOP senators:

Left column:
	•	Sen. Collins (Maine)
	•	Sen. McConnell (Kentucky)
	•	Sen. Murkowski (Alaska)
	•	Sen. Graham (South Carolina)
	•	Sen. Moran (Kansas)
	•	Sen. Hoeven (North Dakota)
	•	Sen. Boozman (Arkansas)
	•	Sen. Capito (West Virginia)

Right column:
	•	Sen. Kennedy (Louisiana)
	•	Sen. Hyde-Smith (Mississippi)
	•	Sen. Hagerty (Tennessee)
	•	Sen. Britt (Alabama)
	•	Sen. Mullin (Oklahoma)
	•	Sen. Fischer (Nebraska)
	•	Sen. Rounds (South Dakota)

Footer in blue directs readers to “CALL THE CAPITOL SWITCHBOARD AT (202) 224–3121.” Background is white and navy with red highlights

Donald Trump and Pam Bondi’s Epstein coverup is a perfect wedge for the resistance to split MAGA supporters. r/Conservative subreddit is losing their minds over this. MAGA voters are burning their hats. Democrats should be hitting this home over and over and over again. Do NOT let up on Epstein.

We strongly condemn Donald Trump’s illegal strikes on Iran. Trump’s reckless actions are putting working people all across the United States in danger. Trump cannot unilaterally declare war—only Congress has the authority to authorize war.

STAND FOR FREEDOM!

Patriots and veterans, come stand with us! Bring your flags, your signs and your energy.
Let's tell DJT we meant what we said on Flag Day and we're taking back our country.
Any protest runs the risk of attracting bad actors, police action, and potential violence. 

We expect our members to understand nonviolent protest, know their rights, and act in a way that is safe and respectful to others.

Juneteenth Day
Thursday, June 19th 2025

Freedom delayed is freedom denied. UVOTN and 50501 are both nonviolent organizations and we follow in the footsteps of greatness. Nonviolent protesting is well established as a force for change. We can only be confident in our success because the way was paved for us by those before. As we honor the history and celebration of Juneteenth, let's celebrate the activists who make change possible!

This is not normal. A sitting president refusing to call the governor of a state after two elected officials were shot, one fatally, is beyond words. A typical president, regardless of politics, would pick up the phone. Offer condolences.
