Refuse Facism, a group who describe the Trump/Pence regime as a "catastrophic danger to humanity and the planet" have organized nationwide rallies for Monday, 21 September in response to the U.S having the highest coronavirus death count in the world.
As of Monday morning, Johns Hopkins University places the death toll in the U.S. at 199,512.
The group accuses Trump of having "deliberately deceived the world about the danger of the virus" after he was recorded on tape by Watergate journalist Bob Woodward saying how he "wanted to always play it down" when asked about what he knew about the potential danger of the fatal virus.
"I still like playing it down because I don't want to create a panic," Trump said in February.
"Now, Trump continues to lie, assail science, traffic in conspiracy theories, hold super-spreading rallies, and sabotage attempts to contain the pandemic. Many of those lost— disproportionately Latinx, Black and Native American—Trump would have gladly killed off anyway," said Carl Dix of Refuse Fascism.
he "March Against Death, Lies, and Fascism and For Humanity" events taking place in New York, Washington D.C, San Francisco, Houston and Chicago, among other cities, is also being promoted as a build up for daily protests scheduled to happen throughout October against the GOP's plans to replace Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg before November's election.
Following Ginsburg's death on September 18 aged 87, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and Trump signaled their intention to fill the now vacant Supreme Court seat with one of the president's picks.
McConnell has been accused of hypocrisy after previously refusing to confirm Judge Merrick Garland, then-President Barack Obama's nominee to replace the late Justice Antonin Scalia, believing that the winner of the 2016 election should pick the nominee despite it being several months away.

I knew there was a reason the roads had less traffic.
Orwell pegged that years ago - fascist means someone they do not like and disagree with.
The numbers are way off. No way the virus took out 200,000.
Maybe, maybe not. Depends on the individual case. But to assume that 100% of the "official" Wuhan-19 deaths are a verified result of Wuhan-19 is nothing but pure bureaucratic deep state hate Trump do anything to get him out of office b.s. numbers.
We all know, in our gut, that George Floyd is listed as a Covid-19 death.
We've all heard the stories of dr's and hospitals doing post mortem exams to test for covid in order to inflate their gov't reimbursements $$$.
No, this isn't about the science, or the medicine...this is about politics and being the most politized disease in the history of this country and it's politics that are driving the stats, and the gov't "response" at all levels in many (most?) cases especially were liberals are concerned.
The CDC walked back a large percentage of those deaths. We will never know the real numbers.
We have been dealing with COVID since March. We are in the seventh month. A country of 350 million people where 8000 people die every single day. 180 days times 8000 deaths equals almost 1.5 million people. We are going crazy over 200000. And half of the 200000 were over 80. So we’re actually going crazy over 100000. Even accepting 200000 deaths it still only about 25 days worth of annual deaths.
God dammit. Taken in by seekandfind again. Always trying to look objective but still sowing the seeds of fear. Note to self: don’t reply to seekandfind.
