It's so wonderful to see all the positive posts about millions and millions of peaceful protesters coming out today ... but this is the gut punch reminder of why.

I didn't get a picture of the best sign I saw today, but I remember what it said:

Somewhere in America
A little Hispanic girl
Is hiding in an attic
And keeping a diary.

Breaking: Today is officially one of the biggest days of protest in American history.

Weingarten: There are so many people who want to fight for our democracy and say no kings. And what I have just been told, that in New York City, there are more people at Times Square than there are on New Year's Eve

Nye: We are here to tell our lawmakers that what's going on in our government is
wrong. They must stop the abuses of this petulant president and his circle of sycophants. No thrones, no crowns, no king

Great day to show what you believe in. Speak your truth. Show you are prepared to fight against authoritarian rule. If you’re marching, having a teach-in,organizing, or resting for future battles, do it with the conviction that we will not give in, that we stand on the side of justice.And stay safe.

We are not a monarchy. We are a constitutional democracy.

Let the world hear loud and clear today: America will never have a king.

Today, millions of Americans will stand united against this administration’s lawlessness.

We will not be intimidated into silence. We love this country. And when you love something—you fight for it.

Do it peacefully and patriotically.
Do it with heart.
Do it with courage.

This is a blatant attempt to silence and isolate us. He’s stopping the trains, closing the freeways and firing live rounds into California. We will not be intimidated. We will not be silenced. #NoKings

If you can’t join a No Kings protest because you’re sick, disabled or it’s unsafe … please don’t feel guilty.

We can all contribute in our own way and not everyone can be boots on the ground.

Share posts. Attend virtual events. Trust that the community is fighting for you.

Survival is resistance.
