D-Day
This Friday, June 6—on the anniversary of D-Day—Americans in will take to the streets in support of our veterans. As of now, we’ve registered 203 separate protests, and more are still being organized.
Veterans and their supporters will carry signs, raise their voices, and stand shoulder to shoulder to say one thing clearly: We support our veteran community and we reject Donald Trump, the fascist movement he leads, and the billionaires that support him.
This isn’t just another protest. It’s the next chapter in a national movement that you have helped build.
We’re proud to share that the protest in Washington, DC—organized in partnership with the Unite For Veterans Coalition—will take place at 2PM on the National Mall. You can learn more about that rally at unite4veterans.org.
The national protests—organized in partnership with 50501 Veterans—can be found in this tracker.
The next morning, on Saturday, June 7 at 11AM, I’ll be speaking in front of the White House to call out Trump directly: For his betrayal of veterans, his assault on democracy, and his corruption.
I will be demanding that he be removed.
These are just the latest actions in a campaign that has grown bigger, bolder, and more effective with every passing week. Since our official launch on January 26, American Opposition has:
Launched multiple national days of protests, beginning with the very first one on February 5, that have brought people into the streets across the country and galvanized a movement.
Given speeches to lay out our message and motivate participation in our movement, including one viral speech that has now garnered over 100,000 views.
Helped deliver the Total Economic Blackouts, proving that when we act together, we can flex real economic muscle.
Led a national boycott of Tesla, prompting Elon Musk to call me “evil.”
Protested the media, leading FOX News to accuse me of “terrorism” and “weaponizing the mob.”
Brought our message to Congress through direct action and opposition research, creating real stakes for lawmakers who continue to support Trump and his agenda.
Documented Trump’s illicit actions in our Trump Administrative Action Database.
Pressured Democrats to improve their strategic communications efforts.
Spread our message through media, including on popular podcasts.
And perhaps most importantly, we’ve built a community of millions committed to strategic resistance—not just opposition for opposition’s sake, but focused, coordinated, unapologetic action to stop authoritarianism before it fully takes root. Our engagement rate—which has consistently been above 10%—proves that our work isn't just creating awareness, it’s driving action.
Together, we are doing something that many said was impossible: Creating a real, organized, national opposition to Donald Trump. Not just with social media posts and statements—but with bodies, voices, strategy, and power.
Our collective efforts—and we especially want to shout out 50501, Indivisible, Refuse Fascism, 14th Now, Jessica Denson, Cliff Cash, and many others—have inspired millions to join our movement, bought the courts time to stop most of Trump’s actions, pressured Elon Musk to leave government, and unified our movement under a single strategy.
And it’s working. Even those who work closest to Trump are questioning him and their path forward.
If you’ve been inspired by this work, we’re asking you to help us keep going.
I’ve never directly asked for donations, but I’m asking now. Please give what you can. We’ve given this organization everything we have, and we need a surge of resources to keep going.
Every dollar helps us grow our reach, deepen our impact, and meet this moment with the urgency it requires.
We know what we’re up against. But we also know what’s possible when people come together—not around a party or a politician, but around a shared belief: America must never fall to fascism.
Thank you for everything you’ve done—and everything you will do in the days ahead.
Please don’t forget to join us on June 6. If you make it to either or both of the rallies in DC, don't hesitate to find me and say hello.
In solidarity,
Carlos Álvarez-Aranyos
Founder, American Opposition
