Resist Project 2025 - News Briefs
📣 Mark Kelly: call for troops to disobey illegal orders is ‘non-controversial’
Senator Mark Kelly defended his call for U.S. military personnel to refuse “illegal orders,” saying that reminding troops of that obligation is a basic affirmation of military law. His remarks followed intense backlash—including from the Pentagon—and a threat of investigation into whether he undermined military discipline. The dispute has sparked deeper questions about presidential authority, military obedience, and the role of elected officials in addressing constitutional threats. — The Guardian
📡 How Universities Used Counterterror Intelligence-Sharing Hubs to Surveil Pro-Palestine Students
Newly obtained documents reveal that state and federal fusion centers coordinated surveillance of student protests over Gaza, sharing intelligence on organizers, campus groups, and planned demonstrations. The records show agencies monitoring social-media posts and compiling protester data despite no evidence of criminal activity. Civil-liberties advocates warn the surveillance mirrors post-9/11 overreach and risks criminalizing political dissent. — The Intercept
💵 Everyone Wants to Ban Congressional Stock Trades, but Some Supporters Worry Mike Johnson Is Stalling
Top congressional leaders moved to block a bipartisan bill that would have prohibited members of Congress from trading individual stocks, despite overwhelming public support. Critics say the opposition is driven by lawmakers who benefit personally from trading practices that pose conflicts of interest. The move intensifies public distrust and highlights growing concern over political self-dealing. — The Intercept
🏛️ Hundreds of Lobbyists Seek to Claw Back Historic Medicare Drug Price Negotiation Victory to Win Trump’s Favor
Hundreds of pharmaceutical lobbyists have launched a coordinated effort to weaken or reverse Medicare’s new power to negotiate prescription drug prices, hoping to gain favor with the administration. The campaign leans on political pressure, industry-funded research, and aggressive messaging to portray negotiated drug pricing as harmful to innovation. Advocates warn that rolling back these reforms would increase costs for seniors and hand drug companies a major victory at public expense. — CommonDreams
🕵️ The White House Intervened on Behalf of Accused Sex Trafficker Andrew Tate During a Federal Investigation
A political appointee at the Department of Homeland Security attempted to undermine an investigation into Andrew Tate by urging agents to return seized devices central to the case, according to internal records and interviews. The official, who had past professional ties to Tate’s associates, allegedly sought to interfere with evidence handling while pushing investigators to narrow the scope of the probe. The revelations raise concerns about political meddling in federal criminal investigations and potential conflicts of interest within the agency. — ProPublica
⚖️ The case of a felon who paid lobbyists nearly $1 million to seek a Trump pardon
A businessman convicted of running an elaborate $38 million scheme to defraud the government secured a Trump presidential pardon that wiped away his sentence and allowed him to resume his life with minimal consequences. “Nursing home magnate Joseph Schwartz was sentenced in April to three years for defrauding the government of $38 million. Seven months later, Trump pardoned him, but the White House denies a lobbying tie.” Victims, who lost life savings and retirement funds, were blindsided by the pardon and say it undermines trust in the justice system. The case highlights how the pardon power has been wielded to benefit wealthy or well-connected offenders despite the harm they inflicted. — The Washington Post
Together, we can Resist and Stop Project 2025
When leaders escape accountability, it signals that power—not justice—rules, eroding trust, fueling corruption, and opening the door to authoritarianism. Billionaire-backed 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.

Project 2025 is Harming Americans
Project 2025 is an extreme, authoritarian agenda that threatens American democracy, freedoms, and civil rights. Backed by conservative mega-donors like the Koch family and led by the Heritage Foundation and over 100 aligned groups, it lays out a 900+ page plan to centralize power under the presidency and permanently dismantle the federal government as we know it.
The plan would replace 50,000 nonpartisan civil servants with loyalists, grant the president near-total control over agencies like the DOJ, FBI, and Federal Reserve, and criminalize protest through militarized policing. It seeks to ban abortion and contraception, end LGBTQIA+ protections, dismantle public education, eliminate Medicaid and Medicare, and defund labor, environmental, and disability protections. Promoting Christian nationalism, it would erase the separation of church and state, suppress voting rights, and silence dissent—paving the way for a permanent far-right dictatorship.
Summary of Harms:
Dismantles democracy and installs authoritarian rule
Criminalizes dissent and minority communities
Ends reproductive and LGBTQ+ rights
Defunds public healthcare and education
Destroys labor, environmental, and disability protections
Increases tax burdens on working people
Erases civil rights and church/state separation
Suppresses voting and opposition voices
We must organize, resist, and protect our communities from this dangerous assault.

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.
