I love that Been-a-dick poster.

Chicago Loop was packed. It was peaceful so no media. There were babies, not crying - and dogs, not barking so no media. Wacker Drive is 8 lanes (6 lanes ?) and the protestors expanded to the outer walls and then south on Michigan Avenue. It was so packed the marchers had trouble turning at corners.

A lot if marchers settled on a wall along the river park. For 5 minutes there were chants of shame for Trump Tower but the weather was too beautiful for that to last. People were enjoying the weather and the no kings parade.

awesome! the one i attended was spearheaded by the 50501 chapter i am a part of, in collaboration with Indivisible and the county Democratic Party Club. tentative numbers say it might just have been the biggest protest my county has ever seen, beating the Women's March in 2017. it definitely beat the number 2 largest protest, which was the April 5th Hands Off! protest we all also put on.

thanks!

that sucks that there was no media. there was a ton of media at our event. the local media in our county has been pretty good with covering the protests.

i don't know of any that are supposed to take place tomorrow. today was the big day, since it is Trump's military birthday parade.

You need to go on social media. Reddit has bowed to Trump, you have to search the threads out. It's ironic the head of the site is like that when the community of the site is very left

Uh there's tons of posts about the protests on local reddits. Lots of topics on the LA and Chicago boards. And the local protest is the first story on the website of my hometown's newspaper in Florida.

Went by ours for a little bit. I had food in my belly prior, and trust me, without being near a bathroom after eating is very dangerous for me lol.

Across the street were Trump supporters AND Westboro Baptist protesters, side by side each other lol.
