Hi there,

It is the job of the press to cover power, not cover for power—to hold those in power accountable by documenting what's happening on the ground and amplifying voices at the grassroots. In this critical moment, as attacks on the media escalate, we must continue to cover crackdowns on dissent, immigrants, the LGBTQ+ community, public health and academic freedom. Thanks to a group of generous donors, all donations made today will be DOUBLED, which means your $15 gift is worth $30. If our journalism is important to you, please donate today. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much.

Green Day at American Music Awards: No Trump, No KKK, No Fascist USA

HeadlineNov 21, 2016

Meanwhile, Trump was also criticized on Sunday night at the American Music Awards by the band Green Day, who chanted on stage “No Trump, No KKK, No Fascist USA.”

Green Day: “No Trump, No KKK, No Fascist USA! No Trump, No KKK, No Fascist USA!”

Trump was also skewered in a “Saturday Night Live” skit in which comedian Alec Baldwin portrayed Trump as overwhelmed by his campaign promises, which include mass deportations, building a wall across the entire length of the U.S.-Mexico border and creating a Muslim registry. In response, Trump again took to Twitter to complain, writing, “one-sided, biased show—nothing funny at all.”
