I can't tell you how invigorating and inspiring and hopeful it is to be in a crowd of people who also care. Took a group of teens to the last big protest and they were most struck by no longer feeling alone. If you're able to go, I encourage you to try. Get a group of friends & go together.

TYRANNY IS HERE: US citizen, minding his own business on his way to work, gets ambushed by ICE, dragged out of his car, thrown in cuffs, and treated like a criminal — in his own country. This is the price you pay for simply existing in America today.

Fun fact: in the 1960s, Civil Rights protestors were given literal classes on nonviolent protest; they didn't all just spontaneously know what to do. So, if you're planning on showing up, this weekend: read this comic. And if you're staying home, signal-boost it/link it around.

If this many people will show up to an impromptu protest in SLC on a weekday, the No Kings protests on Saturday are going to be massive.

SEN. PADILLA: “Saying I lunged is a lie, but that’s par for the course for this administration… I was behind the cameras listening, and at a certain point hearing Noem say they had to rescue LA from the Governor and Mayor was too much to take. So I raise my voice to ask a question.”

It was this statement by Noem that prompted Sen. Padilla to speak: “We are not going away. We are staying here to liberate the city from the socialists and the burdensome leadership that this governor and that this mayor have placed on this country and what they have tried to insert into the city."

After hearing how little planning seems to have gone into housing, feeding, or even paying the National Guard, I'm wondering how effective it would be for LA folks to roll out the street food/BBQs, throw a big party to feed protesters, and invite the soldiers to join them.

Right now you are either on the side of the shouted question or the snapping handcuff, and it is very clear which side is correct.
