Protest rally today in Hood River, Oregon. Frequent honking from passing motorists showed broader support for campaign of resistance to Trump abuses.

So, you turned to the only remaining national newspaper covering ... well, the stuff you care about, so you could find out what happened with the protests on Saturday. Did you bring your magnifying glass. Can you see it, on this screen grab? Click to enlarge.

#HandsOff huge turnout in <10K town of Hood River, Ore. Always a big welcome for the lone MAGA guy driving his truck through the march. I swear I saw a smile on his face the last time. Must've loved being center of attention. Crowd estimates of 1,500-2K. Lots of smiles, despite the cause.

Some of a more than 1,000 people attending the Hands Off rally on Saturday marched from the waterfront in Hood River, Ore., to a downtown rally at Overlook Memorial Park's salmon fountain.

Therapy for spare change at Santa Barbara farmers market. Willing listener and a willing talker.

At farmers market in Santa Barbara, guy charges you to listen while you "share/vent." Isn't that what people do for free -- sharing and venting, that is. Most of us won't sit still for it.
