Hi there,

I believe that people who are concerned about the climate catastrophe, economic and racial justice and war and peace, are not a fringe minority, not even a silent majority, but the silenced majority—silenced by the corporate media. That's why we have to take the media back—especially now. But we can't do it without your support. Thanks to a group of generous donors, all donations made today will be DOUBLED, which means your $15 gift is worth $30. With your contribution, we can continue to go to where the silence is, to bring you the voices of the silenced majority. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much!

Demonstrators Protest Against Supreme Court Nominee Neil Gorsuch

HeadlineApr 03, 2017

Demonstrators gathered in cities nationwide Saturday to protest against Trump’s Supreme Court justice nominee Neil Gorsuch. This is Candace Bond-Theriault of the National LGBTQ Task Force, speaking at a protest outside the Supreme Court building in Washington, D.C.

Candace Bond-Theriault: “And we are here to show that we object and we resist. We know that Judge Gorsuch has ruled terribly for women’s reproductive rights and the rights of all people who can become pregnant, including trans folks and gender-nonconforming folks who can also become pregnant.”

The Senate Judiciary Committee is set to vote today on Gorsuch’s nomination, which is expected to be taken up by the full Senate on Friday. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer has vowed Democrats will filibuster the vote.
