Go to the link to see if a protest is near you and keep checking as more are being added. 5 are in my area now and there were none a few days ago! RESIST!

SPREAD THE WORD, BRING A FRIEND!

REJECT THE COVERUP
Trump’s enablers in Congress led by Mitch McConnell are about to acquit our lawless president. This was never a trial. It’s a cover up.

We'll get the cars coming home from work to honk their horns.

I poster early Monday, the day before the event, and the next day, 72 people turned out. I spoke with everyone I did not know, and many said that this was their first protest.

I now have an email list of people.

But I am doing far more that I could when employed by the Federal Government.

Tonight, we had 6 people, but it was 27F, blowing wind, and a snow/sleet/ice combination.

Let me know how your event went.

This was my 27th protest in the past 3+ years and heard more cars honking than at any other protest! Only about 35 people were there but the location was perfect...heavy duty intersection at rush hour and the horns honked and honked for over an hour!

My friend was thrilled because she was interviewed and photographed for the first time. She attended about 6 or 7 other protests with me and she felt energized. That is the word I would use to describe the atmosphere...energized!

I am watching Rachel Maddow now and she is showing a lot of the protests across the country tonight. It really did come together quickly.

35 is a great number.

I agree, the atmosphere is energizing. Solidarity, and the important feeling of not being alone.
