“An individual who breaks a law that conscience tells him is unjust, and who willingly accepts the penalty of imprisonment in order to arouse the conscience of the community over its injustice, is in reality expressing the highest respect for the law.”

In light of the complete failure of Dems to hold him accountable for his crimes on 1/6 & first term, ask our Senators & your Representative what they are willing to do TODAY to protect our Democracy.

Trump: "They have the worst policy. How we have to even run against these people -- I won't say cancel the election, they should cancel the election, because the fake news with say, 'He wants the elections canceled. He's a dictator.' They always call me a dictator. Nobody is worse than Obama."

5 years after the J6 attack on the Capitol, the threat to American democracy hasn't faded, it's grown more dangerous. Political violence has surged, trust in democratic institutions has plummeted to historic lows, and leading democracy experts now classify the U.S. as an "electoral autocracy."

Need plans for Saturday morning? Come check out Note of Dissent at our first ever free concert at #Boulder library's Canyon Theater at 10:30!
a poster for our concert that has the name of the band across the top, the title of the concert "Hard Hitting Songs For Hard Hit People". The next line says "Listen and learn about protest music across history today" Then there's three skeletons playing various instruments. Below that there's the concert information, Saturday October 25th at 10:30 am at the Canyon Theater in the Boulder Public Library, 1000 Canyon Blvd, Boulder, CO. All ages welcome, but be advised we will not shy away from historical context or censor language in any songs. The last line of text is to our link tree: https://linktr.ee/notes.of.dissent.mb

If you're taking to the streets to protest today, know your rights.
"KNOW YOUR PROTEST RIGHTS You don’t need a permit to protest in response to breaking news and you don’t need a permit to march in the streets or along sidewalks, as long as you’re not obstructing traffic or access to buildings. When you are lawfully present in any public space, you have the right to photograph anything in plain view, including federal buildings and the police. If you believe your rights have been violated, when you can, write down everything you remember, get contact information for witnesses, and take photographs of any injuries. If you get stopped by the police, ask if you’re free to go. If they say yes, calmly walk away. If you get arrested, you have a right to ask why. Otherwise, say you wish to remain silent and ask for a lawyer immediately. Don’t sign, say or agree to anything without a lawyer present. If you get stopped by a member of the military or any law enforcement office at a protest, you have the right to remain silent or to tell them that you’ll only answer questions in the presence of an attorney — no matter your citizenship or immigration status."

Protesters disrupted Trump’s dinner in DC, chanting “Free DC! Free Palestine! Trump is the Hitler of our time!”

This needs to be done nonstop. Keep making their lives hell. Make sure they know they’re despised.

These white supremacist, Christian nationalist, pedophilic fascists must know no peace.

Labor Day "Workers Over Billionaires" rally held at city hall in Colorado Springs.

The people united had a single message to the regime:

"We will NOT be slaves to the wealthy again! We WILL continue the fight for workers over billionaires!"
