Incredible turnout for No Kings II in Salem, Oregon today. Thanks to everyone who came out to stick up for our democracy! If you want to join our newsletter to hear about upcoming events you can email [email protected]

A portion of a large group of people holding signs, edited to cover faces. Signs read “Trump - worst president since… Trump!”, “Let’s hope Trump takes medical advice from RFK Jr.”, and “ICE is the new Gestapo”

People holding signs that say “No faux-king way”, “No war against Venezuela (to distract us from the Epstein files)”, and “No king no dictator”

A sidewalk full of protestors with a beautiful blue sky and the Oregon State Capitol building in the background

A large group of people holding signs on either side of the sidewalk. Cars drive by on the road, and the leaves are turning golden and red in the background. Some notable signs read “We march @ 2:00” and “the only minority destroying America is the rich”

Our federal tax dollars are being used to fund a network of government social media accounts that pump out disinformation 24/7. Even during a government shutdown. It’s definitely not essential work.
