Salt Lake City at the Utah Capitol, stuffed with patriots who love America and democracy! The Capitol steps and lawn were overflowing into the streets and the signs and inflatable animals were on point. #nokings #utah #saltlakecity

The Dropkick Murphys performed at the #rageagainsttheregime protest today in downtown SLC. Video here bit.ly/dkmrarslc

It's so important to get people out in the streets for these, so please consider going to the next one your hear of.

On Saturday, a fascist group hung anti-immigrant banners on an overpass in Ogden. Under 24 hours later, Utah Overpass Action and Ogden50501 held a pro-immigrant/anti-fascist protest on the same overpass. Our messages reached *thousands* of motorists on I-15, dwarfing the weak fascist effort in scale

Rümeysa Öztürk was detained by ICE for her op-ed in the Tufts Daily.

Now, the student newspaper is sharing her first public account of her experiences of being forced to live in cramped, unsanitary conditions and having her medical and religious needs ignored.

Today was a contrast of triumph and tragedy. So many people, thousands of us, met and shared a beautiful experience. We shouted, sang, danced, and peacefully marched in a blocks-long stream of humanity. And yet, for reasons unknown, one man decided to turn the evening black with violence. #NoKings

The Declaration of Independence specifies 27 grievances with King George III and Britain.

Donald Trump has committed at least 16 of those same offenses.

I first got arrested on purpose in April of 1991. Putting our bodies on the line shifts policy, it turns narratives, and it is powerful.

Hundreds of us protesting nuclear testing got arrested.
Underground nuclear testing was formally halted in 1992.

Major news journalism outlets in Utah do their *totally bias-free* journalistic duty by underestimating the size of the crowd at Salt Lake City's #handsoff protest by at least 50% or more. @KSL @DeseretNews

I've been attending protests in Utah for over 30 years, and have never seen this large of a crowd. Estimated between 10-12,000 people. Add to this the thousands protesting in deep red rural Utah and nobody can argue that Utah monolithically supports 47 and Muskkk. #50501movement

I was gifted this lovely friendship bracelet at the #teslatakedown this past weekend (3/29) in SLC. You know things are getting real when the #swiftie moms join the on-the-streets rebellion.

Before heading up to the Capitol for #tdovslc2025 at 3 pm tomorrow, you can also protest at the SLC #teslatakedown at 2312 S. State at noon! Bring a lunch, destroy fascism, then lift up the trans community! It's a win/win kind of day!

Even if you're not transgender, even if you don't know anyone who is transgender, please show up for this event, to stand up for the people who are too afraid to come. One of the most powerful things you can do is show them, and the world that they are not alone. 3/29 3:00
