Trump got billions more for his goon squad. How do we make it backfire?

We start by celebrating Randy Villegas’s triumph in the California primary — another step forward in the slow but steady transformation of the Democratic Party into a winning opposition. But …as we notch wins in primaries, the fascists aren’t slowing down. Republicans just created a massive slush fund for ICE and Border Patrol. We talk about how the fight got to this point and what to expect in the lead-up to the midterms. Then in live Q&A: election sabotage, eliminating the Electoral College, and the positive agenda we’ll need for 2028.

Indivisible is a nationwide grassroots movement empowering everyday people to defend democracy and hold those in power accountable. Founded in 2016, it has grown into a network of 2,000+ local, volunteer-led groups across the country taking action in their communities.

Through organizing, advocacy, and collective action, Indivisible supports people in fighting for fair elections, pushing back against harmful policies, and building a democracy that works for everyone—not just the wealthy or well-connected.

Together, we show up, speak out, and create change.
