While the Trump administration is opening up new battle fronts around the country, we should not lose heart. Some of the fights they picked only three months ago are already going badly for them. They can be beaten. It's a good time to open up new fronts of our own. crimethinc.com/MahmoudKhalil

These fliers are for distributing at the "No Kings" demonstrations on June 14, 2025, in response to Trump's attempt to seize power via military occupation. crimethinc.com/zines/it-is-... "The decisive moment has arrived. Disruptive, courageous action is our only chance. If we fight, we will win."

Today is June 11, the annual day of action in solidarity with long-term anarchist prisoners. As we mobilize to defend our communities from ICE and DHS, our thoughts are also with Marius Mason, Monica Caballero, and other captured comrades. Abolish prisons. Freedom for all. crimethinc.com/June11

All around the country, people are taking on ICE in solidarity with those enduring military occupation in Los Angeles. In this account, participants in a combative protest in Austin, Texas describe how they shook off the control of party organizers and evaded police. crimethinc.com/AustinJune2025

One reason we argue against vertical leadership in favor of redundancy, horizontality, and decentralization is that our oppressors would love to be able to paralyze us simply by knocking out a few leaders. All of us must be capable of initiating and directing resistance. crimethinc.com/tce#leaders

As we've seen in Los Angeles, any pretense of noncooperation between the police and the federal mercenaries who are terrorizing our communities dissolves as soon as we stand up for each other. They comprise a single apparatus of repression. Police not welcome. store.crimethinc.com/collections/...

ICE raids continue in Los Angeles, now with the backing of the military. Donald Trump's strategy is to channel the rage generated by the failures of capitalism into spectacular violence against the most vulnerable, addicting his followers to vicarious brutality. crimethinc.com/sacrificialv...

Los Angeles Enfrenta o ICE crimethinc.com/LAcontraICE Na dia 6, moradores de Los Angeles reagiram a uma batida do ICE, dando início a um dia de confrontos. No relato a seguir, participantes descrevem como pessoas se uniram para impedir que agentes federais sequestrassem membros de sua comunidade.

This analysis by @crimethinc.com looks back to recent history in order to look forward and is extremely timely. Having covered the movement, it's important to parse out what has been accomplished in the streets after and Biden Democrats failed to change anything. crimethinc.com/2025/05/28/a...

It's time for a thread about how to participate in demonstrations as safely and effectively as possible. First—if at all possible—don't go by yourself. Go in a group of friends you trust. Talk in advance about what you aim to accomplish and what each of you needs. crimethinc.com/affinitygroup 🧵⬇️

Leafblowers, umbrellas, lasers, balloons, paint bombs, shields, and power tools—an overview of all the innovations that demonstrators used to defend Portland from the mercenaries in ICE and DHS back in 2020, some of which are showing up again in Los Angeles this week. crimethinc.com/PortlandTact...

Democrats are worried that Donald Trump is intentionally provoking unrest in "blue states" in order to discredit rival politicians. If that is the sort of thing you are concerned about, then you are in luck, because fortunately, there is a very simple solution. Spread the unrest to red states.

These anonymous posters are circulating in several variants—connecting struggles against the police in Los Angeles, Gaza, and Greece to Atlanta, Chicago, Minneapolis, Oakland, Portland, and Seattle. You can download all of them here: crimethinc.com/posters/the-...

Liberals fear that if people act unruly, Trump will be able to impose totalitarian control. That gets things backwards. Trump is already imposing totalitarian control. That's what is driving people into the streets. It's too late to avoid this fight. We can be passive and lose—or give it our all.

"We can handle one 10,000-person protest, but ten 1000-person protests throughout the city will overwhelm us." -LAPD Chief Michel Moore in response to the 2020 uprising Decentralization is key. Elon Musk personally banned our Twitter account in 2022, but this post remains good advice today.

The ungovernable response to ICE in Minneapolis, Los Angeles, and elsewhere is strategic and effective. If you don't want Trump's mercenaries to kidnap your neighbors, you have to make it too risky for them to strike without the National Guard on hand. Resist. 🏴 crimethinc.com/LosAngelesJu...

Via Bonustracks: Los Angeles erhebt sich gegen ICE - crimethInc | "Leute begannen, die Scheiben der Bundespolizeiwagen einzuschlagen. Zu diesem Zeitpunkt beschloss die ICE, die Stadt zu verlassen, und auf der Straße begann eine Feier." bonustracks2.noblogs.org/post/2025/06...

This is the ICE facility in Portland that was the site of an Occupy ICE encampment in 2018. People are camped there again tonight. Whether or not this takes off, the best way to support those defending their communities in LA is to find a pressure point where you are and act. crimethinc.com/ICEage

What's happening in #LosAngeles is a popular response to authoritarian brutality + repression. People are taking the streets in defense of their neighbors + neighborhoods. For this - Trump has send in the military. Read and share this report from @crimethinc.com. crimethinc.com/2025/06/08/l...

"It was a mistake to think that so much accumulated misery would not explode." A participant in the 2019 uprising in Chile shared this reflection with us afterwards. It's relevant in the US today. It's a mistake not to expect all this accumulated misery to explode. crimethinc.com/fellinlovewi...

Trump has signed a memorandum deploying 2000 National Guard to Los Angeles—the next step in his power grab. The best thing that people can do in solidarity is to take action outside LA. They want to isolate and suppress us one by one. Stand up in solidarity. crimethinc.com/posters/the-...
