I know we’re all excited about the huge success of No Kings II on Sat. Oct. 18. A question all of us are asking is: What’s next? This question needs immediate attention. So, let’s take a look at three impactful things we can do now! open.substack.com/pub/thomasdi...

Relational Organizing. Win the Infowar from Your Couch. No Kings Alliance + Somewhere on a Lake Up North.

Things we can do now!

Trump is rigging maps to build a Congress that serves only him, not the people. @AOC knows the power to stop him is in California’s hands—Prop 50 is how we fight back and win. #YesOnProp50

Arizona AG Kris Mayes is suing the House of Representatives because Speaker Johnson REFUSES to swear in duly elected Rep. Adelita Grijalva, leaving 813,000 Arizonans without representation in Congress for the past month.

Every time Trump escalates his attacks on our communities, the #NoKings movement grows stronger. We, the millions of Americans who make up of this peaceful movement, are coming together on Oct. 18th to say: NO KINGS! app.sosha.ai/s/iFFNHpRY

The DHS propaganda video blaming Democrats for the shutdown is peak hypocrisy from the party that fired federal workers and now threatens to fire more. They gut paychecks, spread lies, and call it freedom. It’s political thuggery. Call it out.

Mikie Sherrill calls it like it is: more deceit from a desperate campaign. While Jack and his MAGA allies push baseless lies, she’s got a real plan to end utility rate hikes and cut costs. Watch the unedited footage yourself: the truth is on her side. #VoteNJ

They’re stealing seats. We’re leveling the field. Prop 50 is California’s line of defense against Trump’s election rigging.

Van Hollen is dead on. ABC caved to a bully and handed him a feast. Appeasement doesn’t tame tyrants it fattens them up. Every time the press bows, the bully grows bolder and we all pay the price. Time to stop feeding the beast and start fighting back.

Donald Trump can't win the 2026 midterms fair and square - so he's trying to cheat by calling up his cronies in red states and asking for seats.

California: YOU have the power to stop him.

Vote YES on Prop 50 to defend fair elections and STOP Trump's election rigging.
