Political scientist says: when millions protest, it’s not destabilizing — it’s democracy functioning.
Portraying peaceful dissent as a threat? That’s a hallmark of authoritarian-style governance.
The people know the difference.

Millions rally against authoritarianism, while the White House portrays protests as threats – a political scientist explains
Protests can serve two opposing purposes. They can represent a mass movement in favor of democracy – and simultaneously serve a nascent dictator in their efforts to undermine democracy.

If passed, the SAVE Act would limit access to our democracy for millions of eligible voters.
The House has already passed it, but the Senate can still stop it in its tracks.
Tell your Senator to REJECT this bill in defense of our voting rights.

Stop the SAVE Act
The SAVE Act would keep millions of people from being able to vote – and would shut countless eligible voters out of our democracy. Urge Congress to reject this bill now.

Overall the protests in the US were a major victory and Trump was humiliated. Millions of new allies have now joined. You are getting there. The coming months are going to be more difficult as the regime intensifies attacks. The US moves slow but that’s okay, just keep moving. #3E #NoKingsProtests

There are multiple scattered movements and protests happening nationwide. They all fall under #3E. While it may not seem like it, together you are an army and every action no matter how small or unseen is rippling into a single massive wave of resistance. Keep going, you’ve got this, you can win.

Boycotts against Trump outside of the US are already happening, there is a need for a domestic one inside the US. These are tricky as they will inflict damage to local economies. The Olympics and FIFA World Cup games need to be cancelled; removing them from the US will be a major blow to the regime.

Yep that’s the story today. And the next story is how we funnel these millions of new people into sustained local organizing in service of democracy.

The right to peacefully protest is fundamental.
It is in the Constitution.
No president can nullify it—because in the United States of America, we have no kings.

They lied. When pressed, they HID THEIR IDS. DHS admits they sent them. This wasn’t a welfare check. It was a test run for a police state.
