Some good news! Have you looked at the No Kings map lately? Thousands of events scheduled!

Thousands of events! And many more each day. And some in Europe.

Find an Event near you! https://www.nokings.org/

As President Trump escalates his attempts to control us, it is on us, the people, to show that we will fight to protect one another and our country. If he believes we will roll over and allow him to take our freedoms, he is mistaken. We are coming together again on March 28 because we know we can overcome this repression when we unite.

By then it will be 7 weeks past hip surgery. I have a red velvet cape my husband found at Halloween at thrift shop ordered the bonnet and got a sign that says:

If only children were protected like The Epstein Files!

I dont get accidently pushed because my hip surgery was from a fracture. Instead of walking the street like i usually do will find a place and stay there.

Used the same home made sign both times. Might use it again or make a new one.

Even though it's still the crux of the big problem, I think it needs rebranding.

I'm signed up to go again March 28, but there is no guarantee I can get away.

once a 3.5% threshold of the population is reached in attendance at the non-violent rallies, that is the point at which serious political change happens....https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0231156839/ref=ox_sc_saved_image_2?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&psc=1

So, everybody, turn out!!

3.5% of 347 million =12,145,000.

At the last No Kings rally, there were 7 million. We can do this!!
