📢 Freedom Over Fascism News — December 1, 2025 | Updates and Actions You Can Take Today
🗽 Freedom Over Fascism News & Actions for December 1, 2025. Freedom is a daily act of advocacy and holding our leaders accountable to the will of the people.
Today in Freedom Over Fascism we’re featuring: December 1, 2025 news briefs, video briefs, and calls-to-action. Freedom is a daily act of advocacy and holding our leaders accountable to the will of the people.
Together we can advocate for Freedom Over Fascism:
When leaders escape accountability, it signals that power—not justice—rules, eroding trust, fueling corruption, and opening the door to authoritarianism. Billionaire-backed members of Congress, justices, and elites aren't serving the people—they’re scheming to suppress our voices, strip away our rights, and rule over us. But progress and power to the people is more than an idea; it’s a movement. By standing up, speaking out, and demanding dignity, opportunity, and justice for all, we can build an America that truly lives up to its promise.

A senior executive at the Campbell’s food company was terminated after a former employee released a recording in which the executive disparaged the company’s products as “food for poor people” and made racist remarks about Indian coworkers. The recording, made during a salary-negotiation meeting, also included claims the company used “bio-engineered meat”—which the company denies.

How Project 2025 shifts the USA towards a fascist regime
Project 2025 is a blatant power grab designed to give extreme MAGA Republicans unchecked control. Donald Trump and his Republican allies plan to use it to criminalize abortion and those seeking asylum, attack the poor and middle class, and dismantle essential programs like Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, the Affordable Care Act, SNAP, and veterans’ benefits.
Under Trump’s Project 2025, Republicans intend to impose a nationwide abortion ban and create a national registry to monitor women’s 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 hikes—all 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.

How do we fight Fascism?
Hope
Hope is a powerful weapon against fascism, serving as both a shield and a rallying cry in the face of fear and oppression. While fascism thrives on division, despair, and apathy, hope inspires unity, action, and resilience. Hope empowers us to envision a society built on equality, justice, and freedom, motivating us to take meaningful steps to protect these values.
Respect
Respect is a formidable weapon against fascism, countering its foundation of hatred and dehumanization with dignity and inclusivity. By leading with respect, we create a society where collaboration and compassion overpower fear and division, rendering fascism powerless in the face of unity.
Unity
Unity is one of the most powerful weapons against fascism, as it dismantles the divide-and-conquer tactics that authoritarian regimes rely on to maintain power.
🗽The strength of a nation is not its ability to fight wars, but rather by its ability to prevent them. - Gene Roddenberry
Together, we can protect and empower those we love, champion our rights, freedoms, and democracy, hold our leaders accountable to the people's will, and inspire voters to make a meaningful difference.
