Conservative protests are always treated as an organic cry of anger that manifests the distress of the unjustly ignored American heartland; protests from the center-left are always written off as noise from inside the bubble.
The Tea Party protests in April 2009 had about a third of a million people involved, and the political media treated it like a game changer for the Obama presidency.
The No Kings rallies were AT LEAST ten times bigger than the Tea Party protests. Will the press keep pretending Trump is popular?

Based on crowd-sourced records of No Kings Day event turnout, and extrapolating for the cities where we don't have data yet, it looks like roughly 4-6 million people protested Trump across the U.S. yesterday. That's nearly 2% of the U.S. pop!

In 1981, the New Jersey GOP created a “Ballot Security Task Force” to harass Black and Latino voters on Election Day. Armed men, including off-duty police officers, stopped voters and demanded to see voter registration cards. It led to a consent decree against the GOP. www.cnn.com/2020/10/02/o...

Laws should solve real problems—like better healthcare or financial protection. So why do so many lawmakers push laws based on disproven conspiracy theories? Let’s keep asking: Who benefits, and who’s left out when outrageous laws are proposed?! #TruthBrigade truthbrigade.indivisible.org/s/AV0bDifl

Paul Ryan is the 1st person I remember using the word “entitlement”. I’m not saying it started with him; I’m saying HE is the one I remember 1st saying it.
