“Fight the Trump Takeover” is a nationwide day of protest happening Saturday, August 16, 2025. From coast to coast, people are mobilizing to push back against Trump’s latest power grab: sweeping redistricting in Texas that could hand Republicans up to five extra congressional seats in 2026.
This isn’t just about Texas it’s about defending our entire country. From the D.C. police takeover to the LA show of force, Trump keeps testing how far he can go to seize power. Tomorrow, we push back.

Or simply go tomorrow because FDT. ;)
We'll be in front of the old Courthouse in Covington, LA at 10AM tomorrow, Sat, Aug 16 - backyard of our US Representative Steve Scalise (R - Dist. 1) and same state as Senators John not the good one Kennedy and Bill Cassidy (R-LA) ...because FDT.
Okay, but can we start calling Trump a dictator, and can we add a few refrains of “Fuck Putin” in between the second and third verse?
TAKE EVERY CHANCE TO SHOW UP FOR THE RESISTANCE! Join every protest possible!
On it!
Well... if anyone had heard about it before now...
Yeah... I'm willing to protest, but at my age, I need a bit of a run-up...I do wish the publicity for these things was a bit more robust.🙁
I am an artist and I’m wondering how could I do justice to a piece? I need cardboard gesso, it dries, I paint and then use graphics on plastic transparency and place them over colorful areas. The painting part is done in layers, graphics art of photography and svg text quotes…
You can pay attention…you also still have time to make a sign and show up. Even in rural Montana we advertise our protests online. Check out your local indivisible chapter, FB groups if you still use Meta, or 50501.
No, it is a last minute thing. Be agile if you can. We're going to need to practise mobilizing.
The United States Armed Forces can end this takeover.
I wonder if/when they will? Some states once had guard units at the state level from long ago. I wonder if rebuilding those, peacefully having people they cannot deputized or federalize. Switzerland has everyone willing in their militia for self defense, Finland does too. Ready to go short notice.
Why has there been so little press coverage of these? I’m not surprised but WTF?
I remember the national uproar over use of force, I don’t remember politicians positions, but it was (at least) on a court ordered decision. ICE customs and increasingly the police it seems, don’t feel the need for court orders, dc doesn’t seem to need them either. I Don’t agree with it though.
No

You have to embrace the WHOLE problem, not just the mango muppet decoy. Like the oligarchy, isreal, and the heritage foundation, the REAL REASON all this is going on. 🤦♀️ Our messaging SUCKS, We all got conned last Nov and this is the best, We can do, to resist We. Are. Fucked.
The state of Israel owns our congress
Oligarchy who want to become monarchs while congress insider trades, scotus gets bribes, executive branch auctions it off for “lil crypto checks”. Heritage foundation and special counsel interest help ROI and balance of bribes via “the “genius” act”: separation of bribes act.
The real oligarchs are UN-elected central bankers. Follow the money. Bitcoin fixes this.
Found a local event!
💯
Would be nice if it was more than just a day.
I follow all kinds of news sources and podcasts and pages, and this is the first I've heard of this protest.
You need to also be looking at Florida right now. There are more seats here I think they can take.
