even my local media barely touched it.
It was huge. Millions of people showed up in unity against this con artist and his authoritarian regime.
Ignoring the people is not going to work. If they pass this bill and cause extreme financial burdens on millions of people, all for the benefit of billionaires and the con artist, the No Kings protest will be a drop in the bucket for what happens next.

The biggest symptom of ignoring the people is the stupefyingly large wealth and income inequality. It is unsustainable and has been building for decades.

(3,270 posts)The local newspaper was in walking distance. Very little coverage.
Most of the coverage I did find was on social media. Facebook, Threads and Bluesky.
