How can we help them keep questioning? If we see them, hold up signs reminding them of their oath? The report line for illegal activities? Remind them that the protestor are Americans? Repeat the 60s and leave flowers for them?

Honestly, we need to have the world cup pulled from the US. It might break through to most people
comment in response to post
We can hope it's a sign the LAPD doesn't like Trump's actions

Thank you!

Can we get links to those formal investigations? We need to share them s across social media far and wide

We need this to be the dominant image of when protesters and Trump's goons meet
comment in response to post
Right now, there is no one more visibly and effectively resisting Trump. We'd all be better off if Democratic leaders followed Newsom's lead rather than whatever Schumer is doing

Don't threaten me with a good time
comment in response to post
We could do worse. But we could also do better
comment in response to post
I don't think it's that bleak. In April, 2% of the country took to the streets for peaceful protests against Trump. No Kings Day looks to be even bigger
comment in response to post
We'll deal with that later. For now, he is the most visible leader opposing Trump and setting a damn good example Democratic leaders should be following
comment in response to post
Agreed! Resistance Newsom is WAY better than podcast Newsom. The way he's behaving, I want him as attorney general to go after Trump abs his minions

Thank you so much. As a man in my 40s, seeing seniors coming out in force has been reassuring.

Thank you. As a guy in my 40s, the number of seniors put at the protests has been inspiring.

Newsom for Attorney General
comment in response to post
Bingo. And we need more of these protests going forward. Big ones every month with smaller protests every week
comment in response to post
@thegodpodcast.com I really hope you're right.

The horrible thing is MAGA won't care and they will spread it knowing it's a lie
comment in response to post
FFS, don't be Trump's useful idiots. Scenes like this play into the "violent riot" narrative Trump wants to justify me troops and violence.
comment in response to post
This is why non-violence is essential. If they shoot at people, we will need overwhelming documentation that it was unprovoked
comment in response to post
Worse, they're doing what Trump wants them to do: ignore peaceful protests and run videos of property damage continuously on cable news.
comment in response to post
Agreed. Right now, Newsom is doing exactly what needs to be done and aggressively resist Trump. We need to unite and support him even if we have other Democrats we'd rather have as president
comment in response to post
Police aren't chasing migrants, ICE is. Know what does help? Providing a counter narrative to Trump and the media. Peaceful protesters posting videos of themselves means friends and neighbors have someone they know and trust to listen to instead of the MSM and right wing media

How does blocking the freeway help?
comment in response to post
The author names a good point that Obama should be one of the current players
comment in response to post
And will any of the people you block become sympathetic to the cause or want to join your next protest?
comment in response to post
First rule for protests is that people have to like what you're doing. Blocking freeways is on par with smashing windows
comment in response to post
You can't block freeways and gain public support. Seriously, who is going to see this and think "I like these guys." Is like the people who smash windows and are shocked when that's all the media focuses on
comment in response to post
Crap. Dumbfucks blocking freeways destroys our credibility. We need people to like us and fucking up travel is on par with smashing windows for making us hated
