đ˝ Freedom Over Fascism
đ˝ Freedom is a daily act of advocacy and holding our leaders accountable to the will of the people.
Today in Freedom Over Fascism weâre featuring: November 25, 2024 news briefs, video briefs, and calls-to-action.
Billionaire-bought justices and the wealthy few are striving to strip us of our fundamental rights and liberties. Their aim is not to represent us but to rule over us. They employ illicit schemes to swindle, suppress, and undermine the voice of the majority of Americans.
Our response is to unite, reveal their dishonesty, demand transparency and accountability from those in power, and ardently support Independence over Totalitarianism. A well-informed citizenry is the best defense against tyranny.
Together we can champion Freedom Over Fascism
Here are todayâs calls-to-action (timed they take about 5 minutes)

Freedom Over Fascism - Statement on Project 2025
People Power United declares Fascism a clear and present danger to our rights, freedoms, democracy, and the rule of law.
In response to recent MAGA shenanigans to promote Fascism, People Power United - a progressive grassroots group - issued the following statement:
âMAGA Republicans have no interest in representing us. They want to rule over us. Freedom is a daily act of advocacy and holding our leaders accountable to the will of the people. There is no power like that of the people, and People Power United stands ready to protect our communities against any and all injustices,â said Laurie Woodward GarcĂa of People Power United.
People Power United will continue to oppose such harm to our community and champion civil rights for all.
Project 2025 would shift power to a fascist regime
Donald Trumpâs Project 2025 is a blatant power grab that aims to give extreme MAGA Republicans unchecked authority. They plan to use this power to criminalize abortion, undermine the middle class, and dismantle Social Security and Medicare.
Under Trumpâs Project 2025, Republicans intend to impose a nationwide abortion ban and create a national registry to monitor womenâs pregnancies and miscarriages. They even threaten to imprison doctors and nurses who provide essential care.
If enacted, Project 2025 would also gut the Affordable Care Act, leading to higher healthcare costs for everyone and a loss of protections for pre-existing conditions. Workers would lose their right to overtime pay, and middle-class families would face tax hikesâall while wealthy corporations receive new handouts.
Republicans' Project 2025 includes a detailed plan to dismantle Social Security and Medicare as we know them. This means slashing benefits for seniors and allowing Big Pharma to charge exorbitant prices for medication.
Join us to build People Power! Together, we can champion our rights, freedoms, and democracy, hold our leaders accountable to the people's will, and inspire voters to make a meaningful difference.
