This was great but there were not enough American flags. Invisible should tell people that if you don't bring a sign bring an American flag.

It's interesting that the far right (Patriot Front) and the left are both now carrying upside down American flags.
While I believe the defenders of democracy should take back the flag and not be afraid of it, at least they're starting to agree on something.

Not only are they ignoring climate change—they’re trying to cover up the cost. Shutting down NOAA’s disaster tracking so we can’t see the BILLIONS it’s costing us? This ain’t solving the crisis—it’s hiding it.
