Over the weekend the protesters will continue to show up - even with the new people that will be sharing their park - white supremacists in the guise of the Unite the Right Rally on Sunday.
For nearly a month Trump resisters have been showing up in front of the White House. Over 26 nights the #KreminAnnex (formerly known as #OccupyLafayettePark) has seen lawyers, Hollywood actors, Broadway Stars, Daytime talkshow hosts – but most importantly hundreds of Americans. All had one thing in common their desperate want for the President to be held accountable.

I’ll be reporting for NationofChange from Charlottesville and DC this weekend but before I send in those reports – I wanted to share some photos from the continued resistance against white supremacy in the White House. They’ll be there on Monday long after the police barricades and former KKK leaders have gone.
NationofChange will show up like we have for 7 years now as well – help us make another 7 years of award-winning photojournalism and coverage of the resistance (well, we hope we won’t be covering the Trump resistance for another 7 years). Donate here.

One of the most closely watched races in the midterm elections is in Michigan between Democrat Abdul El-Sayed and Republican Mike Rogers. El-Sayed is a former public health official who is campaigning on a platform of Medicare for All, ending military aid to Israel, and getting corporate money out of politics. Rogers is a former Republican congressman backed by President Trump.
If elected, El-Sayed would become the first Muslim to serve in the U.S. Senate. During Wednesday’s debate in Michigan, Rogers repeated the claim, without providing evidence, that El-Sayed has ties to the Muslim Brotherhood. El-Sayed has repeatedly denied the accusation.
“If Abdul El-Sayed wins, it will be a reminder that the left can win in a swing state like Michigan,” says Mehdi Hasan, editor-in-chief of Zeteo. “And it will be actually a moment to say, 'You know what? Americans rejected Islamophobia.
