Refuse Fascism Encourages Indefinite Mobilization Until Trump’s Removal

November 20, 2025

On the anniversary of the 2024 presidential election, the nonprofit organization Refuse Fascism launched an ongoing protest campaign at the National Mall aimed at President Trump's removal from office through nonviolent means. The organization, originally founded in 2016 during Trump's first term, brought together hundreds of demonstrators, speakers including former Capitol police officer Michael Fanone, and musical performances to challenge what they characterize as fascism in government. Founding member Sunsara Taylor emphasized the movement's commitment to daily rallies across Washington D.C. until Trump leaves power, arguing there can be no compromise with the current administration.

Who is affected

President Donald Trump and his administration
Refuse Fascism organization members and supporters
Hundreds of rally participants and demonstrators
Former police officer Michael Fanone (January 6 insurrection survivor)
Retired Master Sgt. Rig Madden (Army veteran)
Sunsara Taylor (Refuse Fascism founding member)
Students and community at George Washington University
American citizens concerned about Trump's policies and executive orders

What action is being taken

Refuse Fascism is conducting daily peaceful rallies in various locations around Washington D.C.
Hundreds of people are assembling with signs and chants of resistance
Speakers and musical performances are being presented at demonstrations
The organization is mobilizing support against the Trump administration
Protesters are marching through George Washington University and rallying at multiple locations including the Supreme Court, White House, Columbus Circle, and Lincoln Memorial

Why it matters

This protest movement represents organized, sustained opposition to the Trump administration based on concerns about fascism, threats to democracy, and policies affecting marginalized communities. The involvement of January 6 insurrection survivors like Michael Fanone adds particular weight to concerns about historical revisionism and threats to democratic institutions. The commitment to ongoing, daily nonviolent resistance rather than isolated demonstrations signals an escalation in opposition tactics, and the movement's framing of the political situation as irreconcilable differences suggests deep polarization requiring immediate action to preserve what protesters view as fundamental American values and protections.

What's next

November 6: March through George Washington University
November 7: Rally before the Supreme Court
November 15 and 17: Rallies at the White House
November 20: Rally at Columbus Circle
November 21: Veterans rally at Columbus Circle
November 24: March on Washington at Lincoln Memorial and "Surrounding the White House" event
Daily peaceful rallies will continue at various locations around Washington D.C. until Trump is removed from office
