Wow! Updated estimates now put turnout at 2.3 million — and we’re still waiting on reports from coalition members in other areas, with some events yet to begin! If you’re free, come out and join us. Over 1,400 events are planned across the country.

People often ask what a coalition of 200,000 can do. The answer’s simple — with all our free time (since a lot of us got fired), we’re out here causing a lot of good trouble.
Let freedom ring, godammit.
Thank you Washington, DC! 👊🇺🇲🔥
That would be a good revenge - spending unemployed time being an activist!! I'm retired, and doing the same!
And we fully support you!!!
Signs from New Orleans, where at least several thousand gathered in Lafayette Square
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 Feeling bit of momentum building right now. Let’s go good people of the 🇺🇸
Orange stain 🤣🤣🥰
Nice turn out
I can't make it today want to join you soon reposting. Love to you guys💗💗💙💙
Rise Up People!! We Love Our National Parks Employees! Hands Off Protest in Thousand Oaks, California.
Is that the estimate for dc?
Now all those people who took to the streets need to organize and do the real work. After school programs are being shut down. Volunteer to tutor or be a Big Friend. Do something meaningful that doesn’t make the news but makes a real difference. This is what good trouble looks like.
Word!!
Wish I could be there! Working poor have to keep working unfortunately and no trips to east coast are in the budget. Fight and protest for all of us!
Love and solidarity. Those of us who live here know that we MUST show up for those who are unable to. Your spirit was with us.
WOW! That's an impressive turnout. We had great numbers here at several rallies in the Phoenix metro area.
YES!!!
Love you all
@rallytogether313.bsky.social
We were also there in Schaumburg! “You must be this tall to ride the US Downfall”was the most artistic. And the Musk puppet on a stick was hilarious when the wielder made him jump and dance - he’s wearing tiny Doc Martens.
@rallytogether313.bsky.social
Love this!!!! Thanks for coming!!
who the fuck will be rude to a legend dog? fuck this guy!
girl*
Keep it up Schaumburg! Geneva was jammed solid, huge turnout
So many of us have been unemployed for several months and enjoy trying to get a job. Its tough.
is there a reputable number for how many people were at the DC event? I can't find anything concrete except "tens of thousands"
See the OP. Not all numbers are in yet from organizers but it’s around 2 million atm.
yes. i know that. i was asking for information. referring me back to the original post more than 24 hours later served no use whatsoever. and your response without source or context is of no value. especially as within the last hour I've seen wildly different numbers
Respect - keep it up!
It brings tears to my eyes to see people willing to stand up for what’s right and for our democracy!
I just wish they had done it at the ballot box before it was too late.
Looks like a good start. Best wishes from Australia
there's gonna be a messy ketchup incident in Fla. when the felon gets off the golf course.
That's very surprising. And encouraging? Hard to ignore.
Its LIVEnow from fox, maybe not main fox channel but STILL
Thank you
The sign was back for our Mayday protest with 100 folks showing up in my rural MAGA county.
♥️🏳️⚧️
🦈🏳️⚧️🦈
Way to go !
Thank you!
How long before the GOP claims it was Soros-funded actors?
A week ago.
Thanks, I needed that laugh.
Necessary trouble! DC!
Nothing official, but San Diego had to be minimum 10,000. Would not be surprised if it was more, many more.
We're here for it!
🔥💙🔥👏
Love this!
I blocked TR. Reason: Fundamental stupidity; Krasnov cuck.
Good call
bsky.app/profile/marc...
I’m hoping to go camping this spring/summer, but will go the state park route if possible. I hope you are ok.
So double the crowd every week and we're done in a month, yes? Because in the words of a friend, these are the dumbest motherfuckers to have ever got their hands on a government.
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Get a load of that giant middle finger to the White House in that picture.
Over 1000 people in Waynesville — 9% of the town’s population.
We drove across country to attend this in DC and was pleasantly surprised by the turnout. 🙌🏼
👏👏👏👏
Thank you so much!
💙 Estimates put turnout at 2.3 million — and they’re still waiting on reports. - Alt Nat'l Park Serv
Trumps inauguration crowd wishes they could
We love you.
Just got home from a protest in Poulsbo WA. It's a small town but a hugh turnout. Don't know how many yet. Cars were honking but only one with thumbs down.
i have a friend living there.. she missed it ... was in seattle picking up family at the airport.
The one on the 19th is at the same place and time. Hopefully she can make this one
what trouble was caused
Wow!!!
March to the white house and enter it!
As peaceful tourists, of course... 😉
Occupy it until this nightmare is over!
✊💙 we accomplished some good trouble today
What a sight to see! 🙏🏻❤️🇺🇸
And they didn't break into or destroy Capitol buildings.
Nice
Keep it up. Well done. Solidarity from the UK and Thank you for giving us hope .
We're trying. Don't give up on the American people.
Not giving up on you. Hang on in there friend. We know you are trying.
🥰🥰🥰
Beautiful sight
Thanks National Park Heroes 😍
Thank you Alt National Park Service. For EVERYTHING.
Stay safe.
nos.nl/l/2562494 Dutch newsside is reporting too
#handsoff
Yes!!!
THANK YOU!! KEEP IT UP!!❤️
Waves hi 👋 from the far side of the hill, behind the Monument, where the crowd was just as densely packed as this. (And the most thoughtful signs I have seen in ~30 years of rallies.) 👊 🇺🇸 🔥
And every single person was kind & polite!
Is this your photo? It's beautiful.
Thank you. I was there.
Thank you for being there!!
In the community that I went to for the demonstration there had to be a couple thousand people. We were not expecting that we figured if they were two or 300 it would be good. So the turnout is phenomenal.
I love you guys. Thank you.
More of this... please and thanks
Good for you, West Virginia!!
20 k + in Rhode Island
Reckon any GOP reps might take note?
Can’t wait to hear the estimates for all the locations. Especially DC & NYC!!!
💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
This is amazing
Please help us push CO govJaredPolis to pass SB25-005, if it is easier to organize unions it is easier to fight the oligarchy/business elites. Did you know Jared Polis is worth over $$$400 million. Do you really think he wants to represent Coloradans in economic distress, or cares about your needs?
That's a bit better!
The WORLD is out protesting #handsoff2025 also.
Damn betcha
I lived in Richmond for seven years. It makes me so happy to see this wonderful turnout there.
My childhood home. Luv RVA!
Allllll HEROs!!!! And....my home....soooo proud!!!!
Spokane, Washington starts at 3pm pacific time, we're ready!
My hubby is there with his buddy. Once my knee heals I'll be with him.
See World, lots of us are doing something. The continental US is over 3 million square miles but we are bussing into pivotal areas with tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of people with some areas projected 7 figures. Send us your best, and thank you for holding democracy. Our turn!
My mom & I desperately wanted to attend the protest nearest us. But I use a walker & O2, & she's nearly 80. We can't march, but we're doing what we can.
There’s room for everybody and every body in this movement! You can keep boosting the signal and talking loudly. Boycott! Print propaganda! You are needed and loved! 💪🏼❤️
You were there in spirit. My protest had a lady sitting in a camp chair with a sign that said “ I lived 97yrs for THIS!”
Don’t feel bad. I am walking around with a stint between my kidney and bladder 🥴 so walking around and standing is completely out today. I’ve had tears in my eyes looking at all the pics and videos. There will be more!
Everything you do helps. 🩷
Worcester, Mass. 40 degrees and rain didn't stop us. And our Rep. Jim McGovern spoke.
I was one of about 1000 in Worcester, Ma.
chicago is being broadcast live by Fox there. Even faux noose can't help themselves....the only good fascists are scared fascists and from the comments they are leaving on IG and youtube. they sound like scared little cockroaches claiming its fake news.
even fox 26 in houston is covering. the INDIA TIMES is covering the DC rally live.
All Democrats
43% of all voters are Independents. So you definitely had independents there too. Leftists don't usually register as Dems. So it was probably a good mix of people.
I’m independent lol for real
Me too. I thought there would be more urgent energy, but it's a really nice turnout.
Yeah, absolutely better than nothing. People are the power.
It will get louder as things get worse. It will be different people out in the streets when it gets more urgent, I think
Can’t wait
Just can't wait for those food riots. Good times
No doubt
Wonderful! I'm really annoyed at media for saying "hundreds" or "thousands" - and it was clearly OVER a million!
It rained, it was cold but lots of people showed up in Sandusky, Ohio!
I'm there in spirit -
800-1000 people in Arvada Colorado. That makes me happy. 85% women over the age of 50.
Not surpising given how hard women worked to get abortion access that's now been stripped. We know what's coming. We remember.
The Grannies and Crones and Elders are PISSED! I always love (love/hate?) seeing much older women with the signs saying, "I can't believe I'm STILL out here protesting this shit"
I wonder where are the younger people? I saw someone else in another state said mostly older people.
Buffalo turns out in the rain. I’d say about 10,000 if not more. Good trouble feels good. Let’s Go!
As a former WNY resident, this pleases me. Shame about all the racism there, but seeing these numbers gives me a touch of hope.
"Good trouble feels good!" I love it!
Sign up for General Strike. Check it out. generalstrikeus.com
That doesn't include the multitudes of people protesting Canadian, French, UK, Italian, Dutch cities too...Time for everyone on this planet to gang up on these a**h*les
Wow!!!
Nobody counted me. I doubt I'm the only one.
I hope republicans are afraid, they sure should be. The people are PISSED!
Around 40 in the small town of Page, Arizona.
I know Page, my dad used to work there sometimes. That’s a great turnout. Well done Page people!
INCREDIBLE! If you have pics to share, I'd love to boost them on here! #HandsOff #HandsOffAZ
20k in Rhode Island turned out in Providence... In the rain - 40 degrees. This turnout was in the smallest state in the country. 🥰 Love my hip little state & my beloved itty bitty city. 💙💖💙
Hey, where did you get the 20K figure?? I was there and while it was definitely a lot of people what I read in the ProJo was about 6K. I’m not doubting the higher figure, I just have zero ability to estimate crowd size and I want to know where you heard that so I can quote it too.
Check with Indivisible RI. Their head count would be closer to reality. (& the pic shows that's way more than 6k coming down the hill. & the plaza was packed before they all got there
🥰😎🥰 LOVE THEM !!!! They've also probably been hitting the streets for yrs It's how boomers dealt w/ Civil Rights Women's Rights Gay Rights & how the Vietnam War ended. You can open a checking account because of those boomers- ❤️ Not their first rodeo 😎
Lots of boomers at protests everywhere apparently.
A simple historical fact... boomers got shit done by going out & attending protests & marches Change isn't linear It's why we're all out there Every generation ❤️
This was only a sampling of the friends of my parents that we saw. There were sooooo many boomers. Lots of Gen x and millennials (some w/ little kids). The group I did not see represented was those in their 20s…
Yeah. The news reports are saying the kids are not showing up. I mean white GenZ leans right like their GenX parents, but I think it’s also they might have jobs where they work on weekends?
Some complain about that I saw a lot of younger folks ❤️ The younger ones have jobs & probably on the weekends They can't afford to lose a day's pay in this current environment. (can anyone ?) I figure every one is doing their best with what they can do, when they can do it. ❤️
I’m not a fan of this argument. It assumes older people hold 9-5 Mon-Fri white-collar jobs. Plenty of older people work jobs where they work on the weekend/do not have the flexibility to take days off. Sure, a slightly higher % of young people work on the weekend, but I don’t think that explains it.
Yeah, I was trying to be generous. I think they just don't get the threat, it isn't "cool", and they do lean right.
That’s what I saw. And one older wow woman said it was her 56th protest.
White
We know how to do it. Been doing it since civil rights days. We have it DOWN.
I've been at this since '72. I was 14 at the Miami Beach RNC & DNC conventions Today made me very proud to be another little piece of good trouble & share it w/others. ❤️
We appreciate those carrying the torch, no matter who.
Yes we do ❤️
True. Since I was a teen.
Ok… I’ll look up what Indivisible RI says. And see what people say tomorrow. We were pretty close to the front of the pack so I saw the crowd from the bottom of the hill.
They mentioned it several times while speaking. I personally don't believe much from current media. was @ the 2000 Gay Rights March in DC. Park Service said about 90k attended (It was way more) In over 50 yrs of attending such things, I've learned they a.l.w.a.y.s. under count. A.l.w.a.y.s.
I mean… It’s more like the city said it was 6000-8000 and I do trust the city to know how many people can fit in Kennedy Plaza. I wasn’t able to stay for all of the speakers, so I missed people saying it. I had to get my mom and her friends home, the walk to downtown was a lot for them.
In over 50 yrs of doing this, I promise you, the govt always low ball the numbers This is a simple fact I've learned & it took over an hr for all the marchers to get to the plaza I think it was a higher number in attendance than 6k Just my opinion All the very best to you 💙
Just got home from Hands Off rally in Beaver county Pa very good turn out for a red county
Waco, TX had 360 protestors today!
Huge turnout in Sarasota
5000 turned out today in Stamford, CT @indivisiblestam.bsky.social @indivisible.org
In recliner icing my new knee🙄. Cheering for everyone who showed up today, especially the senior citizens who feel threatened. I'm with you!
Yes! Democracy is not given. We SHOW democracy. We PRACTICE democracy. Let’s keep going!!
Tucson AZ holding up traffic and causing lots of good trouble! And SO many older folks are showing up, which is awesome to see 🥹
Incredible. Really is something substantial. This a whole lot of anything for the US.
I was there! Anyone got total numbers?
Thanks, Baltimore!💙💙💙💙👏👏👏👏
A wise person told me this: A protest march on Washington with 1,000,000 people is not disruptive, and easy for those in power to ignore. A daily march of 5,000 people in Washington until change in enacted is much more effective.
Tucson Arizona #HANDSOFF lined both sides of the streets for 9-10 blocks!
Oops Veruca, that was YOU!
Proud of you Tucson!!!
Thank u Tuscon! Tennessee here!
Wow a lot of people showed up!!
Fantastic!!
Oh how I wish I could have joined the protests! Doing my best to protest from home. Stupid back has me down through May. 💙💙💙💙
I wish I could go also but I do what I can from home. Be proud of what you do.💙
What you do from home is incredibly important for the Resistance. Never give up. Never surrender. 🖖🏾
That's what I tell myself. The turn out all around the country is awesome. Politicians told us to stand up and we are. Now it's their turn.
P r e a c h
Thanks!❤️
Back pain is diabilitating. Take care of yourself and feel better. 🩷🖖🏾🩷
Keep it up fellow Americans! We can’t sit idly by! Democracy is on the line.
Thank you Pasco County! Tennessee here!
Proud of you.
Thank you!!!
Well done! 💙💙💙
Fantastic
We need more of this. More often, more people
As a Cdn, I just have to ask…where the fuck was the outrage last Nov… it was pretty clear this was all coming Or maybe Elmo did really steal it.. So what’s next ?
I’m betting that Elmo did steal it. The statistics related to the swing states don’t jive.
Just think how many more people would have been protesting if they could, either because of work or disabilities or whatever. Or just living in BFE, Nowhere.
Lots of people in NYC and interestingly only 5 members of law enforcement during the entire 2 mile walk.
That's good to hear!
Yes, KC! We will be there next time! 💙👏💪
I was there too. It was awesome. Huge crowd‼️
If all the non voters who felt this way had voted. This mess could have been minimised or avoided. Trump should be in jail already.
I'm so proud of my communities. I live in a Red rural area and they are really turning out. I wish I could be with them but I do what I can.❤️🕊️
On the RTA from Ohio City back to Triskett we sat next to a guy who asked “why all the signs? A protest or something?” He was unaware of the event. He said stuff that aligned with his Trump beliefs so it was fun explaining why the past week sucked and the years ahead will challenge his worldview.
I asked “do you make more than $366k a year?” He said no. I told him I don’t either. I said “95% of Americans don’t, but Trump’s tax plan is written so that the 95% of Americans will get tax increases to pay for the top 5%’s tax breaks.” He got quiet. And then we got to Triskett. “Have a good day.”
Fox News won’t tell viewers the market is in free fall.
I WAS THERE!!
Happy to follow!
Thank you!!! Got these when I was there!!! bsky.app/profile/spli...
Followed back btw!!
My wife and I came in from River for this. A great time, fantastic signage and energy.
We also came in from River. And yes, great energy. Here’s my sign.
Hey there!
Right on hometown!!!! I may not live in OH anymore but I’ll always call the CLE home!
Love hearing from you!
Where’s Tracey?
Aloha Hawaii. Mahalo!
My family showed up in Lenexa, KS and Atlanta, GA. So proud of them.
Not my sign but this nice lady said I could take the picture.
I wish I could have gone to the local event. But I'm sick. I'm enjoying it from a distance.
They are rocking it out in NYC I'm watching it live. Thousands of people!
Those are fantastic numbers, and they will just go up with more insanity from the GOP and more protests.
It was awesome....we were one of them
As great as those numbers are that is HALF of the number we need to change Republican votes in the House & Senate. We need 10-12 MILLION in the streets. The big cities need to have 500,000+ like they just won the Super Bowl
We’ll get there.
When schools are out and it gets warmer numbers will grow! It’s better this way rather than a big number to start then smaller numbers. Shows people are getting increasingly pissed off!
We do not have 2 more months to stop the Republican budget suicide and Donnie’s destruction of the regulatory system
I know we are out and protesting now. I’m just saying numbers will grow.
We don’t have but a couple weekends to protect democracy
We need to ride this positivity and energy. Otherwise, people will just pack up and go home. The people, united, will never be defeated.
Next time. We're so close!
But it’s growing! Richmond had about 10x what they had on Feb 17 — we are getting there!!!!
My little area of 20,000 had 1,200. We need to double that for the message to get through to our local Republicans
Absolutely but that’s an incredible turnout at this point in our journey. Keep advocating!!!
I don’t know who is estimating numbers but recall an anti war protest (after 9/11) in NYC that I went to. It was mobbed. Peaceful. I asked various cops what the police department estimated in terms of numbers. They all said around 2 million. NY Times reported 20,000. I cancelled my subscription.
Add me to the numbers please? I couldn’t leave my house, but I have been boosting and supporting all day!
We arn’t golfing, or laundry or even just resting. If you arn’t able we get it. But if you are and side with us, this is our moment and we must all be present. Otherwise? Tyranny.
👏👍
What happens tomorrow? All this organizing to protest and tomorrow we are here once again.
There’ll be more protests. Congress people and wealthy families that support Trump will start to get nervous. But this vibe is not going away.
Trump masterbated at the J6 protests
We did on Whidbey Island at Bayview rd. Pretty cool.
Yay Round Rock! Not far from San Antonio. Looks like you had a great turnout. We did too!
Hope John Cornyn is worried!
fox2now.com/news/missour...
We were expecting 1000 this morning in Duluth, MN. We got 3000.
Duh-LOOOOOOOOOTH! YEAH!
Fabulous!!!
👏
Amazing
Seattle is starting later- just started at Cal Anderson park.
Spokane is starting at 3pm. My husband and his buddy drove into the city to participate. Gop is also planning to show up. Hopefully they won't cause problems.
Eeew, maga in Spokane can be violent. Be safe. Film it!
I'm home with my new knee but hope to be in marching shape in a month or so. Husband and his friend are in there representing our rural area.
This is amazing!!! Love to see it!
I am legitimately so pleased!! And there's so many more, I might just keep making em 😄😭
Dubuque had 300-400.
Went to 2
My son and I went out in the snow to protest! I’m so proud of the turnout from our tiny town!
Good for you and your son. 💙
Corvallis Oregon, home of Oregon State University. Huge turnout!
I hope my aunt and cousins made it out to it! Don’t know if they were, but know they feel the same about this admin!
👏👏👏
Michigan showed up today!
I'm heading out to participate in the protest in our small town on the West Coast. Hoping we have a great turnout to help me cause some good trouble. I'm encouraged by the large numbers across the country and no reports of bad trouble or clashes. Will report back.
🤎
We made some good trouble in Concord, NH!! It was freezing cold, & raining, but that didn’t stop us New Englanders from showing up to tell Trump, Vance, & Musk to go fuck themselves!!! ✊🏻🖕🏻🇺🇸
That's simply awesome. Well played, America!
I did
We are! Such a great turnout! So proud of my city and the burbs! Showing up!
This is unbelievable! We're on our way! www.bbc.com/future/artic...
We need 9.5 million more. We need close to 12 million… 3.5% of the population - to make change. Let’s do this! This is a good start but we need more. Decent turnout in Austin TX today but still smaller than the women’s March in 2016 was. C’mon people! We can do this.
Weather not great
Not gonna lie, this surprised me for Idaho! Way to go!
Way to go Idaho.
There was a large crowd in Salem, OR!
It's great to see the humongous turnouts, but is this really going to do anything? tRump doesn't care, and neither does the GQP's. It's all falling on deaf ears.
Then replace them.
Just attended the one in Sioux Falls, SD. There were thousands there!
The pictures, the crowds. I’m crying tears of happiness.
They wouldn’t allow it in San Antonio because of other events going on
Big crowd in Albuquerque, New Mexico!!
This was a huge crowd! Only the second protest I've ever attended but I was simply amazed and uplifted!🇺🇸💪
👏👏👏.
In my small town in the very red part of PA we had 70 people show up! Which for here is impressive.
it's me from the future. @altnps.bsky.social estimates are going as high as 17 million---or 5% of the total US population
You’d never know it. Disgusting national media
Disgusting #CorporateMedia #Fascist ass kissers! 🤬
Amazing
WOW!
The crowd today in St Paul was AMAZING! Easily 5 times the size a 50501 rally usually is there!
Drove through a pretty red iowa town and saw a lone person with a sign saying "hands off" by the side of the road!!
That must have been very brave for her/him to do that. People can be very mean.
Very brave.
I'm so proud of this person! From a tiny blue dot in a small burgundy community
Me too!!
Thank u to that lone person! We appreciate u! Tennessee here!
Michigan turned out today! This is where I grew up, the small city of Saline, Michigan. Ann Arbor was massive!
Hey Hey! Ho Ho! The Orange Clown has got to GO! #HandsOff
St joe in sw Michigan also small town had 1000! Most ever!
Well done, St. Joe! 👏👏👏
Uodated numbers more like 1500-2000!!! 👍
Yay Saline! #HandsOff
We were out today in Columbus, GA over 300 people! Boost protest since 2021
Heh, sounds about right from where I grew up. Hence why I left.
Because nothing says ‘I care deeply about my home’ like criticizing protesters' dedication from another city. Thanks for your invaluable contribution to the movement—guess every revolution needs its commentators!
You're right, I don't. But I'm sure you can take solace that you're part of the 0.1% of folks in that town that's on the right side of history!!
My home state! Great job 👏🏻
Massive!!!!
Anchorage Alaska starts in an hour!
Please post pics!!
Good but when are we going to take back the government
Upwards of 1000 in Doylestown, PA
Getting ready in Dallas starts in one hour!
300 in Allentown PA
Hell yeah ✊🏻
Coverage has been minimal on the news
It’s time to take down this criminal regime!! We’re not going to put up with their nazi crap!!! Lock up drump snd his entire regime!!!
Go Astoria go!
That cardboard sign captures my thoughts exactly.
Ann Arbor Michigan has 2, first one had a massive turnout!
Thank u Pennsylvania! Tennessee here!
DEMOCRACY!! 👏👏
Amazing! 💙👏💙
👏👏
In our upside down world today: the only mainstream news coverage this morning was from Fox. Seriously. Fox was live streaming. No cnn. No msnbc, no abc news, no cbs news. No pbs on tv although they were streaming on TikTok.
We streamed it online, support the small guys !! We'll speak out more than any 3 letter organization
Super proud of the turnout in Lansing today!!! Huge crowd. Great energy. #HandsOff
More like MILLIONS!
Those are some good numbers. There is hope.
I live in a small town in Maine. We had an impressive turnout.
Is this loud enough for them?? The news can't ignore what we did today.
Morning shows are saying there was tens of thousands. 🙄
They are pro MAGA & barely mentioned it. I only watch @maddow.msnbc.com & @lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com - @jimacosta.bsky.social & @donlemonofficial.bsky.social @ruthbenghiat.bsky.social @sarahkendzior.bsky.social are both all Substack
That was poorly written- They are all on the Substack app
Nyc estimate is 500k, so must be well over 2.3 million total. #HandsOff
Where did you hear the total for NYC?
Hi. Cdnt remember where I saw it on here, but found this: www.facebook.com/share/p/1Kce... It really was massive. Saw people marching down 5th Ave for 3 hours! All packed together, no spaces.
It was massive. I was there. I was just wondering how many people actually showed up, because there were so many people it was hard to see. We stretched for about a mile which is twenty city blocks.
Me too. And we were tightly packed, it was a condensed march. The rain didn't deter ppl, either.
Rising UP!!
Over 100 in my teeny Montana town!!!!
Love seeing so many Montana posts. 💕
Lancaster, PA - big crowd, lots of supportive cars waving and beeping horns in support, too. (Photo courtesy Lancaster Online)
Good for Lancaster!
✊
Resist! Gotta get Dump and Husk and all fascists outta the White House.
OMG! So happy to see this! Miserable day and deep MAGA country. I’m nearby but just had a medical procedure so could join anywhere. Have tears seeing all the turnout.
*couldn’t.
Yes!
Those of us who can't march have taken our protests online to our leadership and are amplifying the voices of other protesters.
the day's not over
so how do the Dems in the House play this with the Senate's tax cut bill coming their way?
That looks pretty substantial!
💪 💙💪 Way to go, Linn County, OR!!
These smaller protests in deep red areas warm my heart the most ❤️
Bravo!
RVA represented! ❤️
My 3 sisters and I along with our little lamb Morris in Westmoreland County Pennsylvania
my old home ! 💙
Big numbers. Great. now what ? Because protests alone won't stop Trump. Whats the strategy ? Tactics ? Because if the idea is to protest for.4 years until next elections then America is finished. So what's the plan ?
Purpose of these protests is to: 1) show lawmakers in purple & red districts that face backlash if they support Trump actions 2) show big business there is econ risk in supporting 47 3) get under Trump's skin 4) convince the media this anger is widespread & deep and they need to start covering it
Noble aims This is the problem medium.com/@aletheisthe...
Ok now all of the people hone in on going to DC and demand their removal
We had at least 14 different events in deep red TN! Picked one in A a small town fairly close to us- 300+! I’m tired, hot & hoarse, but seeing so many likeminded folks is such a boost!
Had several Canadian flags being carried, in addition to upside down US flags, too!
Thank you Ama for standing up for democracy👏🏻! This is such an important mission-🇺🇸so many are starting to realize what’s at stake & are now meeting the moment. 🇨🇦Canadians appreciate every act of resistance against this fascist regime. It’s so encouraging to see the support for us Canadians as well.❤️
