Harrison Ford: When dozens of former members of the Trump administration are sounding alarms saying ‘For God's sake, don't do this again,’ you have to pay attention. They're telling us something important. I've got one vote, same as anyone else, and I'm going to use it to move forward. I'm going to vote for Kamala Harris
I am asking you, from the core of my being, to take our lives seriously. Please remember what's at stake in this election – and the long term repercussions we can expect to see when it comes to our reproductive freedoms under another Trump presidency.

Many don’t realize that the first people Hitler sent to his concentration camps weren’t everyday Jewish citizens, but his political opponents. So, when Trump rants about retribution, locking up his opponents, and giving them “very long sentences,” I can’t help but take him seriously… because history teaches us that is what fascist dictators do during their “Day One” period to consolidate their power. (After all, if you’re hellbent on staying in power but aren’t likely to win the next election, you can’t have your political opponents running around free.)
To keep fascism out of our lives, vote for democracy!

Manuel Bayo Gisbert was kidnapped and held for ransom in Mexico in 2020. Unlike thousands of other Mexicans who have been taken, he survived. His search to understand what happened led him to more than 200 families of the missing.
