Movements make parties; not the reverse. Let this moment become a movement. And let that movement rebuild the Democratic Party to what it was last century.
This is beautiful! I attended the SF women’s march . I think it was 2017 or 2018. Women will lead US out of this disaster ! No more old white racist , misogynist men for office !
The Dropkick Murphys closes out the Boston #Handsoff protest. 100k people in the cold pouring rain. A lot of energy! We are all in this together and the GOP is in trouble!
That band, especially the lead singer, should be considered one of the first SERIOUS Trump resisters. They've been calling him out on his grifting, lying ways for YEARS.
I remember that Women’s March in 2017.
That’s where after the giant crowd, trump said “If you’d only have voted for Hillary like that, you wouldn’t have had to march!”
That was the largest public gather in Washington State History. And even so, Rose/Wade got taken away…
...and hopefully people now understand that a performative one off is not the answer. No pink pussy hats. It's go time and today needs to be the start of more.
These protests are awesome! I recently had surgery, so I could not attend but will be there for future protests. My question is, what happens after the protests are done? I just feel will need to be more aggressive actions? Non-violent, but maybe more intrusive?
If Congress continues to be derelict in its Constitutional responsibilities, if they fail to hold Trump and his lawless henchmen to account, then I'm afraid it'll take a million very serious Americans surrounding the White House for a few days and demanding the rat's removal.
I think we easily had over 100k in Boston today. I don’t know what the exact number was, but 100k was mentioned at city hall plaza. All I know is that it’s the biggest crowd I’ve ever been a part of.
Jussie Smolett was another Belephonte protege. The whole Russian bot-o-sphere started pumping out the story within minutes of him claiming he was mugged.
I was part of yesterday’s protest too—and I can’t stop thinking about the energy of it all. The signs, the strangers, the quiet power of being seen. I ended up writing a poem about it.
January 2017 on Boston Common was reportedly 150,000. The test: I joked it was the 'Women's Shuffle' because there were SO MANY PEOPLE we didn't have room to march. I was at the Common today, but when I learned we'd be moving to City Hall Plaza, I headed there early. It felt big but not AS big.
Gucci is still 🔥! Icicle and human rights are not in our success in our success 👌 is our trust. Hickey is very strong and we can't believe that he is caught within a million times in our life and he has to do with it is a horse that has been cheating for a while before the day is a little dis.
This will really tell which stations are Trump run. They are knew about them. There was a postcard blitz just last week. Instead, they cover trumpleshitskin golfing.
IT IS TIME TO DEFEND OUR LIVES BY ANY MEANS!
We cannot let someone like Trump and his criminal entourage :
•END OUR DEMOCRACY
•DESTROY OUR COUNTRY
•DESTROY OUR LIVES
The depressing thing is the only media site with major traffic that has mentioned these protests is https://drudgereport.com. Not a peep anywhere else, including MSNBC.
The crowds today are massive—but not quite 2017 massive. Still, hundreds of thousands across the U.S. are in the streets yelling Hands Off! This isn’t politics as usual—it’s a rejection of the Gilded Age reboot Trump and Musk are pushing.
Women’s March 2017 was in anticipation of authoritarianism while this is in reaction. As long as the press can keep the facts coming we won’t be as hoodwinked. Now what about folks on alt facts media…?
Yes but I do not trust we can be investigative journalists on these sites. If we are starved of trained watchdogs legally required to fact check we are doomed to outrage by snapshots, rumor, myths, and propaganda alone. It’s professionals who’ve been following secretive DOGE for us.
It’s safer that way. Protests aren’t organized by news agencies that broadcast widely. MAGA could use specific info to hurt us. They still may but less if plans aren’t on cable. They should cover them though as news afterward. Rachel Maddow did interview Indivisible leader about it though.
Unfortunately neither the women's March or this protest will achieve much. Trump and the billionaires are laughing at us. And Trump is anxiously awaiting for this to get out of hand so he can incite the Insurrection Act and launch military troops and Hardware at protesters

Thank you to all the protestors today!

Republicans are crooks.
• Well done, Bean Town.
I love New England.
Huge crowd, incredible energy, righteous anger, singular focus.
I hope this is just the beginning.
#Resist #FuckMAGA
#Bostonrocks
and this may sound harsh, but if we don't have some program for follow thru, the march won't result in much
Some of the wreckers spent Jan 6th in that meeting with Roger Stone and traitor Flynn, just sayin'
Jussie Smolett was another Belephonte protege. The whole Russian bot-o-sphere started pumping out the story within minutes of him claiming he was mugged.
Which was the first tell it was fake.

If you're still sitting with what it stirred up, maybe it’ll resonate: https://shorturl.at/n6XtA
No noise. Just presence.
We had maybe 1000 in our little town.
