We had around 4,000 protestors (or more!) at Colorado Springs city hall battling 30 degree weather and threat of snow yesterday! SO proud of my normally VERY red city and had such an amazing time! Thank you all who showed up to #Handsoff protests!!

Donald Trump and Elon Musk think this country belongs to them. They're taking everything they can get their hands on & daring the world to stop them. On April 5th, we're taking to the streets nationwide to say: Hands Off! #HandsOff #April5

From Colorado: We've managed to kick Bannon out of Denver and out of one of the hotels in the Springs, but the Phil Long music hall is showing more resistance to locals rejecting nazism and fascism.

Their number is (719)401-0600 if anyone wants to add their voices to ours.

Went to Bernie's rally yesterday. ALMOST got in but not quite. To all those that see the crowd sizes online, that was just a sliver, there were at LEAST as many people behind me as in front of me when I took this. Lines around multiple city blocks.
America showed up! CO showed up! WE showed up! 🇺🇲🗽

Was a decent turn out, especially for short notice. They let those running for local office speak, including Crank's opponent. LOTS of vets. Crank WAS invited but surprise surprise didn't show up.
Event was run by indivisible. ❤️

So... one of the events I volunteered at ended up on the Rachel Maddow show. I didn't organize I just showed up to help set up, I was the one handing out fliers at the front door.
Pretty sure Crank's head was on a candy cane. Didn't hold it, but saw plenty of ppl carrying it around lol

There's multiple protests in some of the bigger states (esp ones with multiple big cities), and one in DC. All on the 4th. Check the websites and subreddits. Some are asking for volunteers.

We may have more than 50 protests on our hands.❤️😇

Turned out for the 50 capitols march in Colorado. Massive turnout for how many people knew about it. Was prob around 4 to 5 thousand strong and still growing when I left at 1:30.

Just getting started ppl, let's organize to make the rest even better ✊️
