ResistTrump Campaign

This is your place to learn, collaborate, and take bold, lawful action. Together, we can resist ICE and weaken the authoritarian system it supports.

Here is our current campaign plan.

Authoritarians and “wannabe dictators” like Donald Trump depend on financial support and compliance from the business community. Just look at how many corporations donated to the White House East Wing “renovation” - (https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/white-house/list-donors-trump-new-white-house-ballroom-east-wing-rcna239481).
Join us for a community teach-in and action planning session on lawful, nonviolent economic resistance — part of the nationwide #BoycottMAGA campaign.
Together, we’ll connect the dots between businesses, MAGA, and Trump.

We’ll discuss ongoing boycotts, including #TeslaTakedown, boycotts on Home Depot, Target, and others, and plans for new ones.
