Over the last year, you could have given into anger and despair.
Instead, you’ve organized in the largest numbers this country has ever seen to reclaim the power of the pro-democracy majority.
We could not be more thankful for you and everything you’re doing to defy Trump’s agenda.

Agreed, with one modification.

too bad the media can't find out about this. I was told the Trump resistance was collapsing
Huge congratulations to the organizers and, especially, the many many many people who attended their first ever protest.
Based on crowd-sourced records of No Kings Day event turnout, and extrapolating for the cities where we don't have data yet, it looks like roughly 4-6 million people protested Trump across the U.S. yesterday. That's nearly 2% of the U.S. pop!

This is mostly great—but please don't dress like you're going into battle. The Hong Kong democracy movement *failed* partly because it treated protest as battle—"be like water"—and not a play for public support.
You're there for the cameras, not the fight. Dress nicely.

I did my best to compile as many protest safety notes as possible into a one page foldout zine! Coincidentally…it seems the file has breached containment…like it’s available for anyone to print or hand out 👀⚖️

Once again, it seems to me that when a court finds the president is doing something wildly unconstitutional, it is dangerous and unhealthy that we default to “but let him keep doing it until multiple layers of review all agree.”
An appeals court allowed President Trump, for now, to keep the California National Guard deployed in response to protests in Los Angeles, blocking a federal judge’s move just hours earlier that ordered the Trump administration to return control of the troops to California Gov. Gavin Newsom.
