The historic number of No Kings protesters and their expansive geographic spread are signs of a growing and durable pro-democracy movement.

          If NYC residents could do one on 9/11 that would get some solid coverage. Fill the memorial. Remind people Saudi Arabia is a part owner of this regime with Russia.

            Putin, the House of Saud, and Netanyahu all have serious hooks into the orangeboi regime - and to a lesser but still significant extent, the vast majority of the entire US political apparatus and media sphere.

            No need to sign up. I sure as hell don’t. The less data out there on me the better IMO.

            Thank you for saying it. I’m not putting my name on a list, but I’ll certainly participate. I bet we aren’t the only ones. Whatever the signup count, it’s probably at least double that willing to also take action.

          I don’t like how two of the protests they’ve scheduled have been on holiday weekends when people are traveling or have big plans and cannot safely participate (Easter weekend and now Labor Day weekend). The No Kings protest was huge partly because it wasn’t on a holiday weekend. It seems very counter intuitive to have them on holiday weekends.

        The fifty fifty one movement has been organizing protests usually about monthly and you can find them pretty easily on their site

        Next widespread one I see planned is 9/1 for Labor Day.
