Far-Right anti-LGBTQ groups backed by "well-known right-wing big money groups like the Heritage Foundation and the Bradley Foundation" are holding small rallies today under the banner of #StoptheWaronChildrenRally. Protests are an attempt to bring together those still animated around fears over drag, trans kids in sports, and gender affirming care. Ironically, these small demonstrations are being branded around "protecting" children and "parental rights," while supporting giving the government the power to do just the opposite.

Neo-Nazis across the US are attempting to embed themselves within rallies in support of #Palestine. But fascists aren't 'anti-war' or in 'solidarity' with Palestinians - they're white supremacists attempting to use the movement as a way to mainstream their anti-Semitic and racist conspiracy theories. They don't oppose settler-colonialism or State violence - its at the heart of their entire political project. https://itsgoingdown.org/neo-nazi-groups-are-attempting-to-worm-their-way-into-rallies-against-the-war-on-gaza/

Tom Morello of Rage Against the Machine rocked a red and black #IWW hat as Rage Against the Machine was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. He said: "Rage is not here, but you are. The job we set out to do is not over. Now you are the ones that must testify. If you've got a boss, join a union. If you're a student, start an underground paper. If you're an anarchist throw a brick, if you're a soldier...follow your conscience, not your orders."

Members of @jvplive are facing down brutal police while protesting in front of #DNC offices. Video from @chuckmodi1. Keep in mind, this is the same police force which stood by during J6.

"...Over 100 community members assembled under trans flags. A table with pies of a variety of flavors hosted a large stack of flyers detailing the hate group. Posters of the reactionaries’ faces and personal details covered the neighborhood. Even though the library had closed, many initially skeptical bystanders in the local community quickly pivoted into enthusiastic in support for the disruption after being shown the extent of WDI and WoLF’s trans-eliminationist activities and policies."#Portland #PDX #LGBTQ #LGBThttps://itsgoingdown.org/portland-mobilizes-and-shuts-down-anti-trans-hate-group/

". “They’re playing our game,” said one friend. We kept marching, many of us starting to beat our chests and howl like a pack of wolves in unison. Two cops came forward from the main line, seeking to act as negotiators, holding up a peace sign with one hand while the other gripped his riot shield. “Are we doing this?” I asked. “Hell yeah!” someone responded. “Go toward the little one!” yelled another friend, pointing at one of the (still quite large) cops. The first two cops were bounced off the banners like water off a duck’s back. Then came the crush of the crowd against the shields and batons. Large men pushing their full weight into 20-year-old women who can’t have weighed much over 100 lbs. For a moment, I could hear the logical, risk-averse voice in my head screaming, “Run! They’ve got you surrounded!”'#StopCopCity #CopCity #BlockCopCity https://itsgoingdown.org/dont-panic-stay-tight-frontline-reflections-on-block-cop-city/
