Indivisible believes nonviolence is how we win. Not because it's easy—but because it works.

Violent rhetoric is rising. Attacks on immigrants, activists, and electeds are real.

We choose another path. Walk with us.

CNN, Fox News, NPR, Newsmax, and over a dozen other outlets refuse to accept the Trump regime’s demands on restricting Pentagon reporting: “The public has a right to know how the government and military are operating.”
US news outlets reject Pentagon press access policy
At least 20 news organizations declined to sign a new Pentagon access policy for journalists, warning of the potential for less comprehensive coverage of the world’s most powerful military ahead of a Tuesday deadline to accept new restrictions.

ICE is probably causing an increase in crime.

I’m not referring to the many crimes committed by ICE officers—though one certainly could—but to how they’ve enabled criminals by giving them opportunities to impersonate masked ICE officers and by pulling cops off of police work to do harassment.

Trump just bombed six more people in the Caribbean, for a total of 27 civilians who have been killed so far by the US military. It’s illegal for the military to target civilians who do not pose an immediate threat. This is murder.
U.S. Military Kills Another 6 People in 5th Caribbean Strike, Trump Says In a social media post, the president said the people aboard a boat were suspected of smuggling drugs for an unspecified group his team had labeled terrorists.

Trump on Charlie Kirk: "He was able to fight people that were enemies. And he didn't necessarily love those enemies so much. You know, I heard 'he loved his enemies' and I said, 'Wait a minute, is that the same Charlie that I knew? I'm not sure.' But I didn't want to get into it."

As the intensity of the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown has risen, residents of Chicago are increasingly pushing back. Federal agents repeatedly have been observed releasing smoke bombs, tear gas and pepper balls to disperse residents who gather or capture videos.
ICE Is Cracking Down on Chicago. Some Chicagoans Are Fighting Back.
Residents have begun forming volunteer groups to monitor their neighborhoods for federal immigration agents. Others honk their horns or blow whistles when they see agents nearby.

💛❌👑 #NoKings
(below the No Kings logo) WHY WE WEAR YELLOW Millions of people coming together in movement against this regime is our greatest hope for our freedoms, our families and our futures. For months, people online and on our streets have called for a simple, shared way to show that unity. Something anyone, anywhere, could show and share with others. Throughout history, people who have come together in protest against authoritarian regimes have utilized a color that is easy to see among a sea of thousands. YELLOW IS A BRIGHT, UNMISTAKABLE REMINDER THAT MILLIONS OF US STAND TOGETHER IN THE BELIEF THAT AMERICA BELONGS TO ITS PEOPLE, NOT TO KINGS. (around the No Kings logo) WHY WE WEAR YELLOW HISTORICAL CONTEXT HONG KONG: protesters carried yellow umbrellas as acts of protest, turning an everyday object into a vivid icon of peaceful resistance against violence and suppression. ASIA: yellow ribbons became emblems of hope, accountability, and systemic reform: after South Korea’s Sewol ferry tragedy, yellow ribbons evolved from memorial tokens into protest symbols demanding government transparency and justice. EASTERN UKRAINE: the "Yellow Ribbon" movement reclaimed the color as a signal of resistance and national self-determination amid invasion. BY CHOOSING YELLOW, WE ALIGN OURSELVES WITH THIS HISTORICAL CONTEXT: IT IS A VISIBLE, OPTIMISTIC BANNER THAT CARRIES THE WEIGHT OF DEMOCRATIC STRUGGLE, NONVIOLENT DISSENT, AND A REMINDER THAT POWER MUST STEM FROM THE PEOPLE, NOT FROM CROWNS. (around the No Kings logo) WHY WE WEAR YELLOW THE ASK TO WEAR YELLOW On October 18, millions of us will join our neighbors at No Kings rallies to stand united against the authoritarian regime in the White House. Our power is in our unity, and our unity will be seen in yellow. For generations, people around the world have used color to show collective strength in the face of oppression. Our movement is no different. Yellow is our shared signal, bright, bold, and impossible to ignore, a reminder that America's power belongs to our people, not to kings. WHEN YOU WEAR YELLOW, YOU JOIN A MOVEMENT THAT STRETCHES FROM CITY BLOCKS TO RURAL TOWN SQUARES, A MOVEMENT ROOTED IN HOPE, COURAGE, AND THE BELIEF THAT AMERICA IS WORTH FIGHTING FOR.

He was shot and killed by masked assailants in plain clothes who go by ICE. Unsurprisingly, they did not care enough to help the family as they tried to save him. Even more unsurprising, they did not find any evidence of the migrants they were there to terrorize in the first place. Do not open your door for these fucking losers.

Trump has no legal authority, "standing" or otherwise, to order the killing of people in international waters for unsubstantiated accusations of non-capital crimes.

Calling them "narcoterrorists" does not make it right or legal to order their deaths without any due process.

Trump announces another strike "just off the Coast of Venezuela" that killed 6 people
Under my Standing Authorities as Commander-in-Chief, this morning, the Secretary of War, ordered a lethal kinetic strike on a vessel affiliated with a Designated Terrorist Organization (DTO) conducting narcotrafficking in the USSOUTHCOM area of responsibility — just off the Coast of Venezuela. Intelligence confirmed the vessel was trafficking narcotics, was associated with illicit narcoterrorist networks, and was transiting along a known DTO route. The strike was conducted in International Waters, and six male narcoterrorists aboard the vessel were killed in the strike. No U.S. Forces were harmed. Thank you for your attention to this matter!!!!!!

As I've noted, central to Stephen Miller's propaganda is the claim that the Chicago complex targeted by ICE was "filled" with Tren de Aragua "terrorists."

Now @jacobsoboroff.bsky.social reports that the number of TdA members netted in that raid is down to *one.*

one response to this (correct) observation is to say “well, the cops will attack you no matter how you dress and behave.” that’s right. images of cops and ICE beating grandmas and kids in inflatable frog costumes is a win for the opposition.

one of the reasons they're so mad at "no kings" is that they thought they were going to get a different kind of protest. they *want* the black bloc to be out there fighting with the cops. those are the images they've been trying to generate from "go." instead--

MAGA Rage at “No Kings” Boils Over—and It Quickly Backfires on Trump
As Trump allies smear the coming protests, a good writer on MAGA skewers the absurdity of these attacks on large swaths of Americans—and explains why our best recourse will be to turn out in force.
