My poster included a picture of trump holding a trophy that said “Most Mentions in the Epstein Files (38,000!) I copied it off internet! Keep it up Americans! Thanks Scott!

Thank you Tess amazing!

Shout out to everyone who made it, to those who tried and to any thinking person who cares a damn about this country.

So the last NKD was 5 million, yesterday brought 9 million. One more to go for 11.5-12 million which if validated as 3.5% of the population would lead to the overthrow of the Trump regime. We can do this, and thank Scott for making this happen.

Thanks Mike for all you do!

You were the one I went to on election night, November 5th 2024. The way you broke the catastrophic news was impressive, considering we lost the presidency, senate and house. Only better times ahead!

Trump must be delighted to finally have an actual record crowd size!

I wish I was at one of them. I am not able. My heart is with you and the protesters. All I can do is to keep on pasting things from articles about how terrible he and his administration are.

Scott Dworkin's avatar

Thank you Janice! Pamela is right!

That’s enough. You are still a warrior.

Scott Dworkin's avatar

Absolutely.

I couldn’t be there either but you are still doing your part and so am I when we post and encourage others! ❤️🇺🇸🙌

If you’re unable to attend, make as much noise as you can on the net and by phone, it’s all worthwhile Janice!

Well done, patriots!

Well done!

Favorite Sign, “Real Kings Don’t Like Him Either”.

Scott Dworkin's avatar

LOL awesome Pamela

Favorite sign at demonstration at Five Corners in Essex Junction, Vermont: NO MORE LYIN’ KINGS!

Ms Jonington's avatar

I’m still speechless. Yesterday was amazing.

Scott Dworkin's avatar

It sure was!

Protested in Santa Monica. It was great. However, we need to step up our game. More protests, more often. Work stoppages and boycotts have to increase. If we don’t hit the economy we will not change the system.

Pamela J Enz's avatar

May 1 - spending and work stoppage

Patrick Daniels aka Cromulent1's avatar

Agreed Loris, we need to be louder and more aggressive to the billionaire cabal that runs this country!

I attended the No Kings rally in Ventura, CA, along with more than 5,000 fellow Americans and likely some foreigners with ties to the area. We hold in common the belief that all humans are created free and equal, and that justice for all is worth preserving. We rallied for our nation and as such, for ourselves and our families and friends. We rallied for the sake of our children and grandchildren and those yet unborn, that we leave behind not tyranny and authoritarianism but rather freedom, choice, Democracy.

My favorite sign: “For The Epsteinth Time, Why Are We At War?” And “Massachusetts: No Kings since 1620!” The Town Green was packed from the rail fences all around to the street. Speeches: by a woman whose husband and father of their autistic child was taken read by a high school student; a barn-burner from a community organizer woman; a rouser from a man whose parents immigrated from Russia.

As Timothy Snyder says, authoritarianism isn’t inevitable. We all have to do something—participate—to push back. Keep up the resistance!

⚖️ The Prophet’s Verdict

Upon the steps where many kneel,

The Pope addressed the hearts of steel.

He spoke of Ukraine’s fourth long year,

Of families lost to grief and fear. ❄️

While Iran burns in fire and smoke,

The Bishop of the City spoke.

He brought a message, stern and deep,

For those who cause the world to weep. 🔥

"God refuses," Leo said,

"To hear the prayers for blood they've shed."

You cannot justify the strike,

On soldier and on child alike. 🛑

The Trump-Vance line has stayed the course,

With "obliteration" and with force.

They claim they do the Father’s will,

While bombs continue over hill. 🚀

But Leo points to Holy Writ,

Where ancient lamps of truth are lit.

"Your prayers," he says, "are turned away,

For what you’ve done this very day." 🔦

He spoke of Bishop Tonino’s plea,

To Mary, Queen of Liberty.

That flashes of the war might fade,

Into the twilight’s cooling shade. 🌌

He asked for tears to dry like frost,

For every life and spirit lost.

Beneath the Springtime’s rising sun,

Until the work of peace is done. 🌤️

The war in Lebanon grows wide,

With nowhere left for peace to hide.

The Houthis open fronts of new,

As violence chills the morning dew. 🌊

The Pope has called it "scandal" now,

With sorrow etched upon his brow.

A scandal for humanity,

To mock the law of charity. 💔

The Pentagon may pray for might,

To sanction violence in the night.

But Isaiah’s voice is ringing loud,

Above the thunders of the cloud. ⚡

The war-horse has no place to stand,

In any consecrated land.

The Messiah came to command peace,

That every captive find release. 🕊️

The theology is grounded fast,

A verdict that is built to last.

The warmakers are severed wide,

From the God in whom they claim to hide. ✂️

The palms are scattered on the ground,

Where only silence should be found.

But Leo’s voice is like a bell,

To break the war’s hypnotic spell. 🔔

I was at the event in Pittsfield MA. I sang with the Rapid Response Choir. It was freezing out but there were many hundreds of us.

Scott, yesterday was amazing! It was a joyful celebration of both Americans and citizens of other countries who recognize what a danger Trump is to our safety. My favorite sign as a golfer was one that stated “Trump should hire Tiger Woods as his chauffeur”. ONWARD!!!

DR JAGC's avatar

I hope you’re right. I hope we CAN vote them out in November IF we have elections. I feel really hopeless in spite of your news each day. I feel like I should change my married name back to my maiden name. I feel like I should look at Canada or Italy to flee to. I’m physically ill. I don’t feel safe. And there is no one left in the republikkkan party to stand up to him. I pray another country releases the unredacted Epstein files and that they find Shitler committed crimes in THEIR country so they can put out an arrest warrant for him. And then I pray for something I can’t even type. Natural though. It’s the only way we will be free.

Hang in there. We need you. As Americans we were built for this.

Demetria Livingston's avatar

I like the way you’re thinking. Don’t be so fearful. Let’s be positive that your hopes come true. It’s entirely possible!! 🙌❤️

Kellie Nicholson's avatar

One of my favorite signs in Portland, Oregon: May "Big Beautiful Bill" be the name of Trump's cellmate. It was a beautiful day in the fight for democracy.

Sam Jones's avatar

I hope everyone enjoyed the day as much as I did!
