Seeing these enormous crowds gathered outside to protest Donald Trump, I am reminded of how Donald had to move his inauguration *inside* the Capitol because he was afraid (rightly) that the crowds outside would be too small.

Well, I'll be fair and say the only city I can think of offhand in Idaho is Boise, & Google tells me it's the largest, but its population is only about 1/5 of Omaha's, so I wouldn't put them in the same category! Omaha is probably the only city in Nebraska that those outside the Midwest would know.
#HandsOff our healthcare!
Hands off our public education!
Hands off our jobs!
Hands off my 401k!
Hands off my neighbor who has committed NO crime!!!
Hands off those Congressional seats that we are coming for in 2026!
#FuckTrump
Way to go Utah! Idaho! And of course all the other areas. Unity will win, over Trump’s attempts to divide. And in fact we are all united insofar as he has hurt every single one of us. By his attacks on NATO, Ukraine, and our EU allies, on our Canadian brothers and sisters, on our entire planet.
To my American neighbors who demonstrated their peaceful anger today, I admire & support you. On behalf of all those who believe in democracy & the rule of law, I wish your country a return to sanity, Justice & an honest government that respects its Constitution, Citizens and its allies.
Thank you so much! I saw many signs supporting Canada today (our family, included—my kid's sign read "Canada is Our Friend").
Americans know who our allies are, and we're so sorry for what this disgraceful president is doing. We're trying to fix this, and today was a hopeful day!
But he won so bigly, why would he be afraid that the millions and millions of his followers wouldn't attend unless somehow...millions and millions didn't vote for him at all and there was massive Elon shaped fraud. Maybe.
You do matter, you are important, which is precisely why I and many many others marched today. Keep the faith! We're all #StrongerTogether 💪💙 if only in spirit...it all counts! 👍
That's exactly what the Chair of MI 1st Congressional District Republicans accused our UP& Northern MI of: paying people⁉️
Hardly, our organizers were accepting donations to pay for city permits and insurance to even hold the rally‼️
It was planned. Pull the trigger on tariffs, give the American people and the world ( except Russia & North Korea ) the middle finger and fly off to play golf on the taxpayer dime. He’s a pig.
"When the government violates the people's rights, insurrection is, for the people and for each portion of the people, the most sacred of the rights and the most indispensible of duties."
Remember when Trump was so afraid of the People, he put up a chain-link fence outside the permanent White House fence? It was 6/2020 in response to BLM protests.
A new fence went up before today's protests. Trump knows.
He doesn't care. The alternative is jail.
It's still on the table.
The news stations are all reporting on it. This is such a tired trope. If you get all your news from social media, the algorithm is what's burying the coverage. It's out there.
1. Trump is a piece of shit
2. he moved the inauguration inside because of weather. this is one of the FEW things I believe that has been said.
3. I am so proud of everyone who shows up today!
4. We MUST keep this up - it can't be a one-time thing.
5. did I mention Trump is a piece of shit?
And this right here is why I will never believe the results to the last election, that plus the 20 million new registrations and then fewer votes counted from the previous election…..both of those things plus the crowds🤔💙🦋
Good to see! But I’m afraid it’s far too late because Trump is not interested in crowds anymore. He has got full power now and doesn’t need public approval anymore.

47 likes to use the word "mandate", so it's nice that we show him what it really means, using pictures so he can understand.
I suppose in his alternate reality they were all paid to show up.
President Donald Trump has repeatedly insisted that the US needs to reclaim the canal, his administration has now formally requested military options for doing so, the memo from Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth reveals
If only this was voting day last year. If there’s another big lesson to learn here, it is never again to take our vote for granted. It isn’t enough to hope other voters will choose the leaders we want. We all need to get off the couch. Except JD Vance. That asshole can stay right there being filthy
This is funny. I just posted something very similar and as I scroll down not five seconds later, your post comes up. But yes, I remember his dinky crowds.
Not In the small towns, and counties. It probably seem small to you, but if you think about all of the trmp territories, now we are on the same side as them. This is a rare event. Let's ride this to start the recovery of the US government.
Carbondale, IL had over 400 protesters show up despite the fact that THE ORGANIZERS CALLED OFF THE PROTEST because we've had 6.5" of rain and roads were flooding. This in a town of 25k. Expect 4x that on the rescheduled protest day. Be proud of these small town turnouts.
It will be telling if the right comes out to march in support of their orange dictator. Bet there won’t be as many and I guarantee they wont be peaceful!!! But please let’s see them all so we know who we are up against!
Love the message of these signs, but also they’re just aesthetically nice :) there was a guy spray painting them with a home made stencil pattern, you pick the color scheme, both sides of sign. Told my wife “no fascist blood on it, keep it nice for a wall ;)”
Trump is going to ignore it as will all the sycophants controlling the country. With the Media ignoring it I doubt he even knows it is going on. More useless protests that wont change anything. Sorry not sorry. After almost 50 years of life seeing things get worse I have zero optimism anymore.
In Carson City, NV we had over 7,000 people, we lined both sides of the street for 4 blocks, several rows deep. Largest crowd ever seen in a protest in Carson.
The entire world hates him.
He must be furious that he can't draw anywhere near the amount of crowds. All he gets are a bunch of recessive gene dumbfucks.
Still can’t help wondering how trump was re-elected. And why he went to such lengths to threaten some pollsters that predicted he would lose….after he won….
Gisteravond heel laat stond er kort een artikel over de protesten online en opeens was die weg (of heeeel ver naar beneden). Ook @rtl.nl niets zie ik nu. Bizar.
Basically Americans wait to see what the #American #army (and police) will do.
Will it chose sides with the patronised American people?
Or will it side with safeguarding the hoarded money of corrupt American oligarchs?
(The latter seems the preferred position of military leadershit...)
Those people have families I suppose. I hope they refuse, don't show up, they all got the flew, suddenly 😉
Talk with them for #solidarity
There must be a large group who doesn't like Trump (anymore)
On every level.
The image of these fantastic crowds will surely make Trump Soros
He’s going to be pissed!
He’ll find a way to try minimizing them
But the whole world saw what his lies can’t change
WAY TO STAND STRONG AND TOGETHER AMERICA!!
Reminds me of the "Mark Ronchetti puts ketchup on his tamales. Bad for tamales, bad for New Mexico" in last Gov race. It was fun! I already donated to Deb Haaland for Gov. Is anyone else running? We'll have to work hard, we usually alternate 8 yrs each party, will have to break that pattern
Out of characters above! For those of you who don't know, we had a local TV weatherman, originally from Vermont, who challenged our Gov in 2022. He ran for Senate before that and Ch 13 took him back. There was blowback so they didn't hire back again. I wonder what he's up to now?
This is just the beginning and it is a warning to these fascist idiots who think they will hijack this country. Billionaires, multi-millionaires beware. And Congress and all of you traitors in the administration. We won't forget you.
Europe is watching closely and we hear the Americans loud and clear. Keep fighting. We miss our friends through 80 years of strong alliances. Don't let Trump treat that like he treats his own bankrupted businesses.
Which reminds me. I’m still unconvinced donold actually received enough votes. Especially with Elon’s knowledge of “vote counting computers” helping him win. Republicans can put us all at ease with a nationwide paper ballot recount to prove he actually won. 🤷♂️
I attended two protests today. Although they were both in small communities, it was energizing to see people taking action and using their rights to peaceful protest.
I suspect it will make him feel belittled, and eventually he will try to get revenge if we (you too Lupus)continue to belittle him. Oh well... Fuck the man with small hands (you know who I'm talking about) he will probably come after us well. You are you're childrens future.
Urgent! Please Share everywhere! MAGA is actively trying to Steal North Carolina Supreme Court race by nullifying 65,000 Democrat's votes! GOP controlled court gave voters 2 weeks to fix their votes! If they R not fixed, MAGA can use same cheating tactics nationwide! https://youtube.com/shorts/tsLll8i-FwQ?si=-eK38zvgknx2qRFW

Just weird that they don’t use city names, like people wouldn’t know where Salt Lake City or Omaha are.
“Don’t know what you’ve got till it’s gone”
Environmentalists struggle with this understanding
Hands off our public education!

My voice, and presence, doesn't matter anymore. Yours does. Make it count at every opportunity.
Hardly, our organizers were accepting donations to pay for city permits and insurance to even hold the rally‼️
This time, he ran to his country club after lightning the economy on fire. Pathetic coward.

Let's see if his toadies pay attention. He's a lost cause.

United we stand divided we we be where trump/Putin want
🌶Yay!
He won’t be affected by evidence of millions of people hating his guts, he’ll take it as evidence of how “important” he is.
What’s important is the Republican goons in Congress and the Senate have an “oh shit” moment.
My point is a violent crackdown will show fear and turn the rest of America against him.
YES! We need to make everyone in Congress afraid to not do their jobs and keep the pressure on through 2026 and beyond.
