And Ireland! Outside the US embassy a few hours ago…
This photo better captures the feisty yet festive spirit of the #nokings rally outside the American embassy in Ireland this afternoon. Can’t wait to see the pictures from the the US…
Chickens and frogs outside the US Embassy in Ireland. Good crowd and great spirits! #NoKings #Indivisible
Dusting off my #NoKings sign for a rally outside the U.S. embassy here in Ireland. The saran wrap is because it’s Dublin. So of course, rain is in the forecast. Exited to see what unfolds across America today. Hoping for a joyous occasion that shows the world what real love of country looks like.
Yuck! Clueless as usual.
Somebody tell the guys from Metallica. About five minutes ago they were using “enter the Sandman” as part of the soundtrack for Trump’s parade. I don’t think they’re gonna be happy about that. Which I love about them. #nokings #metallica #larsulrich
Thrilling to see that crowd…and so many others. Change is definitely in the wind.
Scenes from the soggy yet spirited No Kings rally in Dublin, Ireland, today. We did our part… Excited to see what you do, America! We love you! #nokings
On the bus, heading to the No Kings rally outside the American Embassy in Dublin. This being Ireland, of course it’s raining. Hence the clingfilm, a.k.a. saran wrap.
Getting ready for Saturday…
This is a perfect way to prepare for whatever the State of the Union brings on Tuesday night — an event with Timothy Snyder about the threats of authoritarianism and what we can do to resist it! I signed up, join me! social.redwine.blue/s/7tbD8NPb

Hey, JM! Moving back to Ireland’s been great in many respects, but it isn’t the haven from the angst caused by US politics that I hoped it might be. In a hideous take on that saying, “wherever I go, there Donald Trump is.”
Does Donald Trump even exist anymore? Or is it all Elon Musk? Seems like the biggest ego in the world got pranked by the biggest wallet in the world. Which is kind of a pleasure to witness...except that the world is well and truly fucked.

Our new guide for resisting Trump's agenda is here.

Eight years ago, we wrote the Indivisible Guide to organizing locally to pressure Congress and block the Trump agenda. Now, we’re offering our best advice on how everyday people can organize to stop Trump 2.0: indivisible.org/guide

"It is more important now for us to fight back than ever."

That’s why we put together a new guide for resisting Trump’s agenda. Nothing will be okay unless we fight for it, and there’s so much that’s worth fighting for: indivisible.org/guide
