That's why we're preparing to hold emergency "Nobody is Above the Law" rallies around the country in the event they are needed.
Use the map or search below by ZIP code to find an event near you, or create one if none exists.
Rallies will begin hours after news breaks of a Mueller firing:
If Mueller is fired BEFORE 2 P.M. local time > events will begin @ 5 P.M. local time
If Mueller is fired AFTER 2 P.M. local time > events will begin @ noon local time the following day
This is the general planplease confirm details on your event page, as individual hosts may tailor their events to their local plan.
This is our moment to stand up to protect our democracy. Let's mobilize to show that we won't let Donald Trump become the authoritarian that he aspires to be. The law applies to all of us, and it's essential that it also applies to the most powerful people in our country.
Use the search tool to find an event near you, or create one if none exists.

It's really a Constitutional Crisis.

In any sane world he would be immediately impeached and removed from office.
In the current world Republicans will support his unconstitutional action and try to destroy anyone who tries to uphold the law.
A true Constitutional Crisis.
Hold onto your seats folks.
History is coming at us at a furious pace and it won't be fun.

(836 posts)Problem is (for me and many others), I work for a conservative, family-owned company. I would be fired in a hot minute.
And with a disabled wife it is out of the question.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
