[Joyful community resistance to fascism]

As with every protest, we also want to highlight the extreme unconstitutional practices of this administration, as this is not just about policies.

This is NOT business as usual in DC, this is NOT normal.

This republican administration has attempted to seize control over state election processes through executive orders and efforts to undermine civil rights legislation, as well as threatening the checks and balances established by the Constitution, such as disregarding court orders and altering federal regulations without proper authority.​​ The administration is using its current power to help billionaires continue to profit while striping away the services that help the most needy.

We need to stand up for due process, free speech, upholding court rulings, and the separation of church and state. The Founding Fathers established the principles of due process, free speech, and the separation of church and state through the First Amendment and other parts of the Constitution. These concepts were designed to protect individual rights and limit government power.
We have NO KINGS in America, yet Trump is acting like one.
We, the people, must rise up, and show that the power of the people is greater than the people in power.
