National Guard troops roaming the streets of U.S. cities. Masked ICE agents conducting military-style raids against families, terrorizing communities. Unauthorized drone strikes targeting boats in the Caribbean.
Pamela, Trump's brand of authoritarianism has a cruel, violent streak that we're seeing manifest both at home and abroad.
His actions are those of a dictator. A wannabe king. But no matter how hard he tries to tear it down, Trump STILL can't change the fact that we live in a democracy — and that means the power rests with the people.
That's why TOMORROW, Win Without War is joining millions of people and partner organizations across the movement for No Kings Day, a massive, nonviolent show of resistance to authoritarian rule and the military occupation of our communities.
Win Without War is proud to join the ACLU, American Federation of Teachers, Common Defense, 50501, Human Rights Campaign, Indivisible, League of Conservation Voters, MoveOn, National Nurses United, Public Citizen, SEIU, and dozens more organizations coming together to say: No Thrones. No Crowns. No Kings.
Whether you're outraged by the National Guard deployments in our cities, Trump's reckless and illegal warmongering in Latin America, abductions and disappearances of our community members, or how he's weaponizing the federal government to silence dissent — Pamela, this moment is for you.
On June 14, the last No Kings Day protest, we pushed back against the dangerous idea that strength comes from troops, tanks, or fighter jets and ruined Trump's birthday party parade.
This time around, we need to get louder, and that's why we're working to ensure as many people as possible reject Trump's authoritarianism on October 18. Unless we show the world that the people across the country reject the future Trump's building, he will take our silence as permission. The simple truth is that the situation won't change if organizations like ours, and people like you, stay on the sidelines. So join us, however and wherever you're able.
Thank you for working for peace,
The Win Without War team
P.S. If Trump's bringing "war" to our cities, we'll respond with solutions rooted in human rights, justice, and peace. As we mobilize tomorrow, we're quickly working to expand our Know-Your-Rights billboards to ensure servicemembers have access to resources when confronted with unethical or illegal orders. The more money we can raise today, the more places we can put billboards up to keep this campaign going, defend our democracy, and build a safer future. Please donate now.
