What comes next, after No Kings 2.0

What Should We Do NOW?

EL CENTRAL by EL CENTRAL

  • October 23, 2025
Español Abajo

No Kings 2.0 was a huge success. More than 7 million (by some estimates, more than 8 million) showed up. We were peaceful. We were patriotic (many of us waved American flags). We stuck to one message: that we refuse to live under a dictator. We had fun (the costumes and signs were fabulous). We felt powerful in our solidarity.

And we are powerful.

What’s next? How do we use that power? What should we do now? I’ll leave to others bigger or more dramatic suggestions. Mine boil down to a dozen simple ones:

1. Organize for the 2026 midterms.

Millions of us just participated in one of the largest demonstrations in American history. The most important thing we do with that power is wrest back control of Congress from zombie Republicans who are rubber-stamping whatever Trump wants. Otherwise, we will continue to lose our democracy and rule of law to this tyrant. We must:

  • Counter-balance Republican gerrymandering in red states with, at least temporarily, Democratic gerrymandering in blue states (in California, be sure to vote YES on Proposition 50).
  • Work with local, county, and state grassroots organizations to identify qualified voters who rarely vote and make sure they do so next year.
  • Organize young people to participate and vote.
  • Make sure everyone you know — including friends and relations who have voted Republican in the past — are aware of the stakes in the midterms, and vote against Trump Republican candidates and incumbents.

2. Protect the decent and hardworking members of our communities who are undocumented.

This is an urgent moral call to action. As Trump’s ICE continues its vicious roundups and deportations, many of our neighbors and friends are endangered and understandably frightened.

If you haven’t done so already, consider forming an unofficial “sanctuary community” that widely shares information about where ICE agents are located, where ICE raids are occurring, and how ICE is violating the rights of people here legally as well as the undocumented, and that takes videos of what ICE is doing and provides those videos to local and national media.

It’s especially important to protect access to schools, public hospitals, and courthouses. Undocumented parents should not feel afraid to send their children to school. Undocumented people who are ill, including those with communicable diseases, must not be afraid to go to clinics and hospitals for treatment. People who believe they are here legally should never be afraid to report to court.

If you trust your mayor or city manager, check in with their offices to see what they are doing to protect vulnerable families in your community.

If you haven’t done so already, I recommend you order these red cards from Immigrant Legal Resource Center and make them available in and around your community: Red Cards / Tarjetas Rojas. You might also find this of use: Immigration Preparedness Toolkit.

3. Help people who are losing their jobs and benefits.

Trump’s cruel budget is eliminating food stamps for hundreds of thousands of Americans and reducing or eliminating health insurance for millions more by cutting Affordable Care Act subsidies and making it harder for people to qualify for Medicaid.

The federal government shutdown gives Democrats bargaining leverage to extend the expiring Obamacare premium subsidies in order to head off a spike in insurance premiums for more than 22 million Americans.

But the shutdown is creating its own hardships — such as eliminating paychecks for two million federal workers. Trump is also using the shutdown to fire tens of thousands of federal workers.

As a result, our generosity is needed now more than ever — to support community food pantries, local food banks, community charities, and shelters.

4. Call your members of Congress.

Phone your representative and your two senators. If they’re Democrats, tell them that as their constituent you support the shutdown as a way to extend Obamacare subsidies, and ask them to hang in there.

If they’re Republicans, tell them that as their constituent you demand they join Democrats to extend the Obamacare subsidies, and also stop doing whatever Trump wants.

Never underestimate the power of a constituent phone call. Every office keeps track of how many there are and what they’re supporting or opposing.

The Capitol Hill switchboard number is (202) 224-3121. The switchboard operator will connect you to your representative or senators.

5. Protect LGBTQ+ and Black and brown members of our communities.

Trump and his lapdogs are already making life more difficult for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and other people — through executive orders, changes in laws, alterations in civil rights laws, and changes in how such laws are enforced.

The Trump regime is also changing laws to favor white people and disfavor people of color. He is prioritizing white refugees over refugees of color. He is strong-arming corporations to eliminate programs that have fostered diversity, equity, and inclusion.

Trump’s rhetoric is encouraging hatefulness.

Please be vigilant against prejudice and bigotry, wherever it might break out. When you see or hear it, call it out. Join with others to stop it. If you trust your local city officials, get them involved. If you trust your local police, alert them as well.

6. Participate in or organize boycotts of companies that are enabling the Trump regime — starting with Tesla, X, Amazon, Home Depot, Walmart, and Palantir Technologies.

Never underestimate the effectiveness of consumer boycotts. Corporations invest heavily in their brand names and the goodwill associated with them. Loud, boisterous, attention-getting boycotts can harm brand names and reduce the value of corporations’ shares of stock.

7. Support groups litigating against Trump.

Some of the most important measures for resisting Trump are occurring in the federal courts. Groups behind this litigation include the American Civil Liberties Union, Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics, Center for Biological Diversity, Environmental Defense Fund, Southern Poverty Law Center, and Common Cause. They deserve your support.

In addition, Lowell & Associates, Democracy Defenders Fund, and the Washington Litigation Group are representing clients battling to get their jobs back, avoid prosecutions, and recoup millions of dollars that Trump has illegally blocked.

8. Spread the truth.

Get accurate news through reliable sources and spread it. If you hear anyone spreading lies and Trump propaganda, contradict them with facts and their sources.

Here are some of the sources I currently rely on for the truth: Democracy Now, Business Insider, The New Yorker, The American Prospect, The Atlantic, Americans for Tax Fairness, Economic Policy Institute, Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, The Guardian, ProPublica, Labor Notes, The Lever, Popular Information, The Bulwark, Heather Cox Richardson, and, of course, this Substack.

9. Join coworkers in getting employers to resist Trump.

If you work for a university, law firm, media company, museum, or any other organization that is being pressured (or could be) by the Trump regime to surrender its autonomy to the regime, urge them not to.

Join with your coworkers, colleagues, and alumni to pressure boards of directors and trustees, explaining that it’s impossible to appease a dictator. Join with other organizations or companies in the same industry to demand resistance. Most labor unions are on the right side — seeking to build worker power and resist repression. Support them by joining picket lines and boycotts and encouraging employees to organize in places you patronize.

10. Push for progressive measures in our communities and states.

Local and state governments retain significant power for good. Join groups that are moving our cities and states forward, in sharp contrast to regressive moves at the federal level by Trump and his lapdogs.

Lobby, instigate, organize, and fundraise for progressive leaders and legislators. Support higher taxes on the wealthy and on big corporations to finance affordable housing, health care, childcare, and elder care.

11. Meanwhile, keep the faith. Do not give up on America.

Remember, Trump won the popular vote by only 1.5 points. By any historical measure, this was a squeaker. In the House, the Republicans’ lead is the smallest since the Great Depression. In the Senate, Republicans lost half of 2024’s competitive Senate races, including in four states Trump won.

America has deep problems, to be sure. Which is why we can’t give up on it — or give up the fights for social justice, equal political rights, equal opportunity, and the rule of law. The forces of Trumpian repression and neofascism would like nothing better than for us to give up. Then they’d win it all. We cannot allow them to. We will never give up.

12. Finally, please be sure to find room in your life for joy, fun, and laughter. We must not let Trump and his darkness take us over.

Just as it’s important not to give up the fight, it’s critically important to take care of ourselves. If we obsess about Trump and fall down the rabbit hole of outrage, worry, and anxiety, we won’t be able to keep fighting.

Be careful. Be strong. Hug your loved ones. We will win this.

¿Qué debemos hacer AHORA?

¿Qué viene después de No Kings 2.0?

No Kings 2.0 fue un gran éxito. Más de 7 millones (según algunas estimaciones, más de 8 millones) se presentaron. Fuimos pacíficos. Fuimos patriotas (muchos ondeamos banderas estadounidenses). Nos ceñimos a un mensaje: nos negamos a vivir bajo un dictador. Nos divertimos (los disfraces y los carteles eran fabulosos). Nos sentimos poderosos en nuestra solidaridad.

Y somos poderosos.

¿Qué sigue? ¿Cómo usamos ese poder? ¿Qué deberíamos hacer ahora? Dejo a otros sugerencias más importantes o más drásticas. Las mías se resumen en una docena de simples:

1. Organizarnos para las elecciones intermedias de 2026.

Millones de nosotros acabamos de participar en una de las manifestaciones más grandes de la historia de Estados Unidos. Lo más importante que hacemos con ese poder es recuperar el control del Congreso de manos de republicanos zombis que aprueban sin más todo lo que Trump quiere. De lo contrario, seguiremos perdiendo nuestra democracia y el Estado de derecho ante este tirano. Debemos:

  • Contrarrestar la manipulación electoral republicana en los estados republicanos con, al menos temporalmente, la manipulación electoral demócrata en los estados demócratas (en California, asegúrese de votar SÍ a la Proposición 50).
  • Colaborar con organizaciones de base locales, del condado y estatales para identificar a los votantes cualificados que rara vez votan y asegurar que lo hagan el próximo año.
  • Organizar a los jóvenes para que participen y voten.
  • Asegurarse de que todos sus conocidos, incluyendo amigos y familiares que hayan votado por los republicanos en el pasado, sean conscientes de lo que está en juego en las elecciones intermedias y voten en contra de los candidatos y titulares republicanos de Trump.

2. Proteger a los miembros decentes y trabajadores de nuestras comunidades que son indocumentados.

Este es un llamado moral urgente a la acción. Mientras el Servicio de Inmigración y Control de Aduanas (ICE) de Trump continúa con sus brutales redadas y deportaciones, muchos de nuestros vecinos y amigos están en peligro y, comprensiblemente, asustados.

Si aún no lo ha hecho, considere formar una “comunidad santuario” no oficial que comparta información sobre la ubicación de los agentes de ICE, dónde se realizan las redadas y cómo ICE está violando los derechos de las personas que se encuentran legalmente en el país, así como de las indocumentadas. Además, grabe videos de las actividades de ICE y los comparta con los medios locales y nacionales.

Es especialmente importante proteger el acceso a escuelas, hospitales públicos y juzgados. Los padres indocumentados no deben tener miedo de enviar a sus hijos a la escuela. Las personas indocumentadas enfermas, incluidas aquellas con enfermedades transmisibles, no deben tener miedo de acudir a clínicas y hospitales para recibir tratamiento. Quienes creen estar legalmente en el país nunca deben tener miedo de presentarse ante los tribunales.

Si confía en su alcalde o administrador municipal, consulte con sus oficinas qué están haciendo para proteger a las familias vulnerables de su comunidad.

Si aún no lo ha hecho, le recomiendo que solicite estas tarjetas rojas del Centro de Recursos Legales para Inmigrantes y las ponga a disposición en su comunidad y alrededores: Tarjetas Rojas. También podría serle útil: Kit de herramientas para la preparación para la inmigración.

3. Ayude a las personas que están perdiendo sus empleos y beneficios.

El cruel presupuesto de Trump está eliminando los cupones de alimentos para cientos de miles de estadounidenses y reduciendo o eliminando el seguro médico para millones más, recortando los subsidios de la Ley de Cuidado de Salud Asequible y dificultando que las personas califiquen para Medicaid.

El cierre del gobierno federal les da a los demócratas poder de negociación para extender los subsidios a las primas de Obamacare, que están a punto de expirar, y así evitar un aumento repentino en las primas de seguros para más de 22 millones de estadounidenses.

Pero el cierre está creando sus propias dificultades, como la eliminación de los salarios de dos millones de empleados federales. Trump también está utilizando el cierre para despedir a decenas de miles de empleados federales.

Como resultado, nuestra generosidad es necesaria ahora más que nunca para apoyar a los bancos de alimentos comunitarios, los bancos de alimentos locales, las organizaciones benéficas comunitarias y los albergues.

4. Llame a sus miembros del Congreso.

Llame a su representante y a sus dos senadores. Si son demócratas, díganles que, como electores suyos, apoyan el cierre del gobierno para extender los subsidios del Obamacare y pídanles que no se desanimen.

Si son republicanos, díganles que, como electores suyos, exigen que se unan a los demócratas para extender los subsidios del Obamacare y que también dejen de hacer lo que Trump quiere.

Nunca subestimen el poder de una llamada telefónica de un elector. Cada oficina lleva un registro de cuántos hay y a qué apoyan o se oponen.

El número de la centralita del Capitolio es (202) 224-3121. La operadora de la centralita los conectará con su representante o senadores.

5. Protejan a las personas LGBTQ+ y a las personas negras y morenas de nuestras comunidades.

Trump y sus secuaces ya están dificultando la vida de las personas lesbianas, gais, bisexuales, transgénero, queer y otras personas, mediante órdenes ejecutivas, cambios en las leyes, modificaciones en las leyes de derechos civiles y cambios en la forma en que se aplican dichas leyes.

El régimen de Trump también está modificando las leyes para favorecer a la gente blanca y desfavorecer a la gente de color. Prioriza a los refugiados blancos sobre los refugiados de color. Presiona a las corporaciones para que eliminen programas que han fomentado la diversidad y la equidad e inclusión.

La retórica de Trump incita al odio.

Por favor, estén atentos a los prejuicios y la intolerancia, dondequiera que surjan. Cuando los vean o escuchen, denúncienlos. Únanse a otros para detenerlos. Si confían en las autoridades locales, invoquenlas. Si confían en la policía local, avísenles también.

6. Participar u organizar boicots contra empresas que apoyan el régimen de Trump, empezando por Tesla, X, Amazon, Home Depot, Walmart y Palantir Technologies.

Nunca subestime la eficacia de los boicots de consumidores. Las corporaciones invierten fuertemente en sus marcas y en la buena reputación que se les asocia. Los boicots ruidosos, escandalosos y para llamar la atención pueden perjudicar las marcas y reducir el valor de las acciones de las corporaciones.

7. Apoyar a grupos que litigan contra Trump.

Algunas de las medidas más importantes para resistirse a Trump se están llevando a cabo en los tribunales federales. Entre los grupos que impulsan estos litigios se encuentran la Unión Americana de Libertades Civiles (ACLU), Ciudadanos por la Responsabilidad y la Ética (City for Responsibility and Ethics), el Centro para la Diversidad Biológica (Center for Biological Diversity), el Fondo de Defensa del Medio Ambiente (Environmental Defense Fund), el Centro Legal para la Pobreza del Sur (Southern Poverty Law Center) y Common Cause. Merecen su apoyo.

Además, Lowell & Associates, Democracy Defenders Fund y Washington Litigation Group representan a clientes que luchan por recuperar sus empleos, evitar procesos judiciales y recuperar millones de dólares que Trump ha bloqueado ilegalmente.

8. Difunda la verdad.

Consiga noticias precisas a través de fuentes confiables y difúndalas. Si escucha a alguien difundiendo mentiras y propaganda de Trump, contradígalo con hechos y sus fuentes.

Estas son algunas de las fuentes en las que actualmente confío para obtener la verdad: Democracy Now, Business Insider, The New Yorker, The American Prospect, The Atlantic, Americans for Tax Fairness, Economic Policy Institute, Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, The Guardian, ProPublica, Labor Notes, The Lever, Popular Information, The Bulwark, Heather Cox Richardson y, por supuesto, este Substack.

9. Únase a sus compañeros de trabajo para que los empleadores se resistan a Trump. Si trabajas para una universidad, un bufete de abogados, una empresa de medios de comunicación, un museo o cualquier otra organización que esté siendo presionada (o pueda estarlo) por el régimen de Trump para que ceda su autonomía, pídeles que no lo hagan.

Únete a tus compañeros de trabajo, colegas y exalumnos para presionar a las juntas directivas y al consejo directivo, explicando que es imposible apaciguar a un dictador. Únete a otras organizaciones o empresas del mismo sector para exigir resistencia. La mayoría de los sindicatos están en el lado correcto: buscan fortalecer el poder de los trabajadores y resistir la represión. Apóyalos uniéndote a piquetes y boicots, y animando a los empleados a organizarse en los lugares que frecuentas.

10. Impulsa medidas progresistas en nuestras comunidades y estados.

Los gobiernos locales y estatales conservan un poder significativo para el bien común. Únete a grupos que están impulsando el progreso de nuestras ciudades y estados, en marcado contraste con las medidas regresivas a nivel federal de Trump y sus secuaces.

Cabildea, incita, organiza y recauda fondos para líderes y legisladores progresistas. Apoyar impuestos más altos para los ricos y las grandes corporaciones para financiar viviendas asequibles, atención médica, cuidado infantil y cuidado de ancianos.

11. Mientras tanto, mantengan la fe. No se rindan con Estados Unidos.

Recuerden, Trump ganó el voto popular por solo 1.5 puntos. Desde cualquier punto de vista histórico, fue un triunfo por los pelos. En la Cámara de Representantes, la ventaja de los republicanos es la más pequeña desde la Gran Depresión. En el Senado, los republicanos perdieron la mitad de las reñidas contiendas senatoriales de 2024, incluyendo cuatro estados donde Trump ganó.

Estados Unidos tiene profundos problemas, sin duda. Por eso no podemos rendirnos, ni renunciar a la lucha por la justicia social, la igualdad de derechos políticos, la igualdad de oportunidades y el Estado de derecho. A las fuerzas de la represión y el neofascismo trumpianos nada les gustaría más que nos rindiéramos. Entonces lo ganarían todo. No podemos permitírselo. Nunca nos rendiremos.

12. Finalmente, asegúrense de encontrar espacio en sus vidas para la alegría, la diversión y la risa. No debemos dejar que Trump y su oscuridad nos dominen.

Así como es importante no rendirse, es crucial cuidarnos. Si nos obsesionamos con Trump y nos dejamos llevar por la indignación, la preocupación y la ansiedad, no podremos seguir luchando.

Cuidado. Fuerza. Abracen a sus seres queridos. Ganaremos esta batalla.
