Our street theater crew was out in force for No Kings! Our goal was to bring the climate crisis into the "Trump Must Go" conversation, with the slogan "Fascism Runs on Fossil Fuels." Great reactions from the crowd!
Lamentors from the Bay Area, Los Angeles and Sacramento attended a CalPERS public meeting today to remind the board that divestment from fossil fuels is the right move morally, environmentally...and financially.

A spooky, moonlit scene features a dark, haunted-looking house with glowing green windows. Red signs on the house read “ASTHMA,” “TOXIC POLLUTION,” and “MORE OIL DRILLING.” In front of the house, an oil pumpjack drips crude oil into puddles surrounded by barrels. A wooden sign in the yard reads “SPONSORED BY TRUMP & BIG OIL.”
Welcome to California’s scariest addresses —
Sponsored by Trump’s Big Oil cronies, and this year…even approved by @governor.ca.gov Newsom and the state legislature, who made a dramatic oil drilling expansion a core part of their legislative agenda.
Every door hides a health crisis.
Mourning the EPA in DC
But the fossil fuel industry demonstrably funds Ted Cruz. So there's that, and that gives him lots of reasons to spew this propaganda. Oily.....

From SF to NYC, we're connecting the dots between Wells Fargo’s financing of fossil fuels, its union busting, and its support of Trump’s war on immigrants and atrocities in Gaza.

Wells Fargo - you can't hide! WF HQ in San Francisco is shut down - every entrance blockaded by indigenous leaders from Standing Rock, Palestinian organizers, and allies.
WF must stop financing Big Oil, pipelines, genocide in Gaza, & Trump's agenda. #stopbillionaires
@oilgasaction.bsky.social
Protestors in San Francisco shut down EVERY SINGLE ENTRANCE to Wells Fargo’s global headquarters this morning.
DYK? Wells Fargo is one of the biggest fossil fuel financiers in the WORLD, contributing over $39 BILLION in 2024 alone. SHAME!
