New HANDS OFF protests April 19th!!!!

The organizers of HANDS OFF and other resistance groups have an agenda. They need constant protests in bigger and bigger numbers for the country to take action against tRump's disastrous policies and actions.

This is vital. David Pakman agrees...please do not rest and think April 5th protests were enough to make a difference. It is NOT! We must continue constantly. That will be an effective strategy and action.

50501 is organizing these protests with Indivisible,

Like the American Revolution, April 5 was a good start but things will take more marches and protests to build as big as they will build up to this summer.

Much depends on how fast and how deep the Mango Mussolini makes everything fail to run on time.

That sucks. It had been announced from the stage (Boston) on the 5th.

Now I'm trying to get some LGBT folks geared up for April 19th -- yes, Holy Saturday, so very bad timing - but before Trump signs off on Insurrection Act -- and half an hour searching online brings no notice of anything on Boston.

- is being posted by individual chapters of various activist movements - Move on, Hands Off, 50501 etc. on many different platforms, I have since learned. An internet search for your location plus date plus protest should turn up info on nearest protest to you.
