Trump will try to sabotage the midterms. We know it’s coming and we know the only thing that stops it is mass, organized, nonviolent, insistent people power. We can’t wait until election sabotage happens to build the force that responds. Let’s get to work. 👇

Are you worried about ICE showing up at your local polling station? Are you worried about mass ICE presence abducting your neighbors? This training is for you.👇

Immigrant Justice Summer Call # 4: How to Funnel Support for Immigrant Justice in Your Community · Indivisible
When an ICE surge hits, community support floods in from every direction. Without a system to direct it, that energy scatters. This call trains you on how to build a link tree that functions as your community's entry point into the immigrant-led response, channeling new people, information, and training and mutual resources directly to where they're needed on the ground. On this one-hour national training call, you will: - Learn what the funnel model looks like in practice: how your group routes community support to the organizations leading the response without creating a parallel structure. - Get trained on how to build a link tree that captures what people need to plug in, including messaging guidance, mutual aid resources, direct support campaigns for people impacted, and training opportunities for people who want to get involved. - Hear directly from a group leader who has used this model in a real surge scenario, sharing what they put on their link tree, how they vetted it, and how they kept it current. You'll leave with the knowledge and a concrete tool to set up your own link tree and put it in your community's hands. This is the fourth call in the five-part Immigrant Justice Summer training series, open to all Indivisible members.

Very important concept. An additional reason why the WHCA dinner was grotesque and the harms of journalists and news orgs normalizing and democracy-washing the fascist MAGA movement From our pro-democracy election coverage recommendations:
Journalists can defend democracy.
Make threats to democracy clear!
• Inform voters of the freedoms they will lose if the
MAGA movement wins.
• Abandon false equivalence between traditional and fascistic candidates.
• Expose candidates who foment political violence.
• Call out lies and bad behavior in every piece of reporting.
• Prominently cover the Big Lie-fueled attack on election legitimacy and voting rights.
We're demanding that newsrooms improve their 2024 election coverage:
