Bob Avakian: THE TRUMP/PENCE REGIME MUST GO! In The Name of Humanity, We REFUSE To Accept a Fascist America: A Better World IS Possible!
“We are confronted by, we are now being ruled by a fascist regime. Calling this regime fascist is not an insult, but speaks to the terrible reality…” WATCH THE ENTIRE VIDEO at refusefascism.org
THIS IS THE SITUATION, THESE ARE THE STAKES.
An important message that concisely outlines the dynamics of the struggle around the presidential election. This originally appeared at revcom.us in late September, before the election and Biden’s victory over Trump in the popular and Electoral College votes. The points here are even more relevant than ever.
RefuseFascism.org Emergency Protest
Don’t Bomb Iran! Trump/Pence Out Now!
In response to revelations late Monday night in the New York Times that last Thursday, Trump had to be “dissuaded… from moving ahead with a military strike” against Iran, RefuseFascism.org is holding an emergency protest to demand,
“Don’t Bomb Iran! Trump/Pence Out Now!”
Protesting the threat of war with Iran. Washington D.C., November 17
ALERT:
Trump Considers Options for Military Attack on Iran
No U.S. War on Iran! Trump/Pence OUT NOW!
The New York Times reported today that in an Oval Office meeting last Thursday, Trump “asked senior advisers…whether he had options to take action against Iran’s main nuclear site in the coming weeks.” According to the Times, “A range of senior advisers dissuaded the president from moving ahead with a military strike.” But clearly, this does not mean that the danger of Trump’s launching a war has gone away. The Times cited “administration officials” revealing that Trump “might still be looking at ways to strike Iranian assets and allies…”

A Statement from the Editorial Board of RefuseFascism.org on November 14, 2020
The election is over. Biden won. Trump lost. Now he and his fascist regime need to go. Trump, awash in his bitter fascist delusion, has not conceded. Pence, Barr, Pompeo play a preposterous yet deadly game with their hands on the levers of power talking of a “smooth transition to a second Trump term.”
A Deadly Pandemic, a Murderous System, a Fascist Regime That Must Be Removed from Power
Letter from a reader
Episode 33 of The RNL Show—Revolution, Nothing Less!
“We Won! Trump Lost. But It’s Not Over, Trump/Pence Must Go!”
Trying to Stay in Power? Oh HELL NO!
Right now, WE—the 77 million-plus in this country who voted out the Trump/Pence regime and the millions more across the globe who celebrated this—are on the offensive. WE have the momentum. WE have the political initiative. They—the Trump/Pence regime and its supporters—are on the defensive. They have been politically knocked back on their heels. They have been thoroughly defeated and thoroughly repudiated. BUT… WE can’t let up. We have to STAY on the offensive, because they are trying to pull some dangerous BS to stay in power, and in the name of humanity, we cannot let that happen.
Appearing in the New York Times on Monday, November 9:
A Pledge to the People of the World
On Monday, November 9, “A Pledge to the People of the World: In the Name of Humanity, We REFUSE to Accept a Fascist America. The Trump/Pence Regime Must Go!” appears as a full-page ad in the New York Times. The Times originally tried to censor this, but reversed the decision. The ad has a number of signatories, including Cornel West, Noam Chomsky, Lilly Wachowski, Arturo O’Farrill, and Chuck D.
Trump Is Continuing to Try and Steal the Election—Seriously
Mainstream media and Democratic Party leaders treat the fight to drive Trump/Pence out as a done deal. They dismiss Trump’s multiple lawsuits in battleground states, many of which are specious and may be thrown out due to lack of evidence, and which wouldn’t affect enough votes to flip the election even if they won. They say that when Trump declares the election will be settled by (“his”) Supreme Court, he’s just blustering—that there is no way that the clear results of the election could be overturned by the Court or other institutions.
This is dangerous “happy talk.”

Trump Is Still Trying to Steal the Election!
NO!
Trump/Pence OUT NOW!
In the Name of Humanity,
We REFUSE to Accept a Fascist America!
The Crossroads We Face and the Struggle to Drive Out the Fascist Regime
Some Points of Orientation for This Juncture
Actually? We DO Need to Be in the Streets … NOW!
Trump and MAGA-Thugs Not Backing Down or Going Away.
The Fascist Forces Have a Plan to Steal the Election, and They Are Working It…
Trump is not quitting. The fascist forces under the command of Trump and Pence—in the government and in the streets—are not quitting. If the election showed anything, it has shown that these forces are deeply dug into this society and will not be vanquished without a huge struggle. Fighting all the way through to drive out this regime is going to be a huge part of that struggle.
“The New York Times has CENSORED the Refuse Fascism Pledge to the People of the World”
The video clip The New York Times has CENSORED the Refuse Fascism Pledge to the People of the World represents a very sharp depiction of some of the features of the struggle that will inevitably come on to the political stage upon which we must and can carry out this struggle.

EMERGENCY! COME OUT TODAY, ACT TO OPPOSE TRUMP’S ATTEMPT TO STEAL THE ELECTION AND VIOLENTLY IMPOSE A FASCIST AMERICA ON THE WORLD!
Reposted from RefuseFascism.org, November 4
Trump has been stealing the election and threatening violence for months, with all this rising to a crescendo in the days before the election. Now he claims victory demanding that the counting be stopped immediately – with millions of ballots yet to be counted, overwhelmingly from the urban cores where Black and Latino voters are concentrated!! NO! Trump’s demand is illegitimate, utterly racist, and would complete the theft of the election and the imposition of fascism.
TRUMP MUST BE STOPPED FROM STEALING THE ELECTION!
INTO THE STREETS, TODAY AND TONIGHT AND AS LONG AS NEEDED!
WHITE SUPREMACY, PATRIARCHAL THEOCRACY AND FASCISM ARE ILLEGITIMATE!

Reposted from RefuseFascism.org:
Election Day is upon us. The atmosphere is thick with threats from the Trump/Pence regime that there will not be a peaceful transfer of power, but rather a theft of the election – a “continuation” Trump called it … in reality, if they remain in power for 4 more years, it will be catastrophic for humanity with a leap in their fascist program.
