Yes, yes, it is.

We the people are taking action to stop a hostile government takeover. On April 5, 5.2 million people across the country stood up to say HANDS OFF our democracy! Save the date for our next national day of action on April 19th. #50501movement #PeoplesMovement #FiftyFiftyOne #April5 #HandsOff

Yesterday was incredible. The official count is in — 5.2 million people joined the #HandsOff protest nationwide. So many are asking: what’s next? Mark your calendars: 4/19 is the next nationwide day of protest.

The American people have risen up and they are PISSED AS HELL. #HandsOff

Great to meet with the nearly 200 Democratic leaders and advocates who came together in Dayton on Saturday! Great enthusiasm around working for policies that make life better for all Ohioans.

What’s next? We’re glad you asked. NEXT WEEK: There’s another congressional recess. With Republicans plotting to gut Medicaid to pay for tax cuts for the rich, the stakes are high — and both your senators AND representative will be back home. Sign up now to take action locally. 👇

West Coast numbers are coming in, and estimates have now surpassed 5 million. People are still pouring into the streets—nearly 2% of the American population is rising up. America, we are so proud of you. You did it.

March through downtown Columbus Ohio today! #3e #50501 #handsoff

Wow Chicago! #HandsOff #FiftyFiftyOne (🎥 Marco Foster)

What we're seeing at #handsoff protests nationwide today and what we saw at the ballot box on Tuesday are not unrelated. The public is furious. It will not be silenced. And those who side with Trump and Musk—or refuse to fight back—will be swept out of office.

#Handsoff! Burlington, VT

Kickoff in Philadelphia. #handsoff

TOWN HALL ALERT! Please join Dayton's very own State Rep. Desiree Tims and Minority Leader Alison Russo on April 10th!

From immigration to federal spending cuts, tariffs, clean energy, and reproductive rights, weekend demonstrators said they are unhappy with many Trump administration policies. via @cinradio.bsky.social

Take a moment to breathe in the air of resistance and community. And relish it. It’s ours. And it matters.

#handsoff over 1k people gathered in Haywood County, NC. More courage here than in elite law firms and universities.

You may not realize how huge this is, but for a town in Wyoming, people showed up today! #Handsoff #Casper #Wyoming

!!!

HUGE turnout today at the #HandsOffMN rally. #handsoff

My 85 y/o mom just sent me photos from the protest she is at with friends in #Oceanside CA!!! They kicked ass. I won’t tag mom but some of you may figure out who she is. #HandsOff

My town is a small boat and horse town (pop. 12k), trends white and churchy, so I was expecting to see a dozen or so people in a small huddle. Not hundreds lining the road on all four corners. #HandsOff

Dayton showed up today in the rain! Had to cancel main program due to danger to sound equipment..but you came out to make your voices heard! 🌧️✊🏽

I asked the one high ranking policeman I saw on 5th Ave why there were so few police. He said “We did not expect anything like this. Don’t tell anyone but I’ve only got 44 officers out here — and it’s a great crowd, great event, no incidents.”

Raskin: We even have the right to call the president deranged for crashing our economy, destroying $6 trillion of wealth and turning our 401(k) Into a 201 (K). And the press has the right to call the Gulf of Mexico the Gulf of Mexico.

Xenia Hands Off was amazing! In the heart of Ohio Congressional district 10 and red Greene county! #HandOff @indivisibleguide.bsky.social

#HandsOff quad cities, Iowa

This is what democracy looks like in Ames Iowa!

Nearly 3,000 people lined Ogden Ave from Lisle to Naperville, IL to say NO to the Elon Musk/Donald Trump takeover of America. Join Indivisible Illinois to keep fighting for democracy and protecting what matters. www.indivisibleillinois.org/ #HandsOff @indivisible.org @maddow.msnbc.com

I have never seen anything like this in NYC. 5th Ave covered from 42nd St well to the 20s. Nobody prepared for this volume. Volunteers are holding the traffic on all the side streets. No police in sight. #handsoff

American people. I love you.

Absolutely proud of you all! HUG! So far, 3.1 million protesters counted today — that’s nearly 1% of the U.S. population! Photos are flooding social media everywhere. Still waiting on more numbers to come in.
