Solidarity events? Awareness raising?

Thinking out loud for follow ups to New Kings.
On Nov 5 at 4 PM, join and support members of the healthcare, public health, and scientific communities in a march from the APHA Rally for the Public’s Health to the Capitol to deliver petitions to Congress demanding the resignation or removal of RFK Jr.

Are there any efforts to hold any nationwide rallies?

This could certainly draw a crowd in Boston.
You’re assuming it was an accident?
Senator, you’re right. But you’re preaching to the choir.

Preach at the broadcast media.
The protests are in opposition to monarchism, not simply Trump.

If Trump were to resign tomorrow, we’d still have Vance and his lord and master Peter Thiel. Project 2025 and Russel Vought wouldn’t just disappear. Curtis Yarvin would still be setting the far right philosophical agenda.

Wake up!
Suit yourself.

You could say he’s a monarchist. You could point out what people like Curtis Yarvin are up to. You could attempt to persuade people to listen to you by making arguments grounded in reason.

Do what makes you feel good.

It’s indecent not to show it.

The broadcast media have become the US equivalent to RT.

Will anyone talk about it?

Anyone?
We currently have a president who is so childishly crude and grotesque that newspapers consider it indecent to accurately describe the video he recently posted, and TV shows think it is indecent to show it.

But many Americans are OK that the Oval Office is home to the nation's crassest toddler.
as far as just messaging goes that video is probably the most embarrassing thing any president has done on the world stage in my life

and the fact that the sunday shows wont even describe it? total abdication of their responsibility
I believe you’re confusing abdication with fear.
Does anyone believe the “accident” was an accident?
Ditto “every Middlesex village and farm”.

We’re from North Reading and have been attending as many of the weekly protests in Wakefield as we can.

The previous No Kings drew about 400. This one attracted at least 800.

The attendance is growing. Hopefully there are more we can get to show up.
I’m hopeful groups like Indivisible are putting together effective strategies that leverage the turnout and provide opportunities for people to become more involved at the grass roots level. That’s where minds are changed.

I agree the turnout can help assuage discouragement.
.
1. The people on Bluesky aren’t the general populace. They eon’t get the message here.

2. The Loony Left has screamed the word fascist for every Republican since Nixon … Wolf! Wolf! …

Now that an actual wolf has showed up, is it any surprise that so many ignore the warnings?

I’m not holding my breath.
He won’t. Neither will we, unless we travel outside this country to get it.

“That’s according to new results presented Sunday in Berlin at the European Society for Medical Oncology conference.”

mRNA was well along in the cancer pipeline before Covid.

And our scientists are leaving.

Why don’t you actually direct these to the broadcasters? Let me show you how:

You can also challenge newspapers:

@nytimes.com @washingtonpost.com @bostonglobe.com

Or even politicians:

Why just post to the echo chamber?
So what? Hitler came to power with minority support.

He’s moving ahead. Posts on Bluesky about his level of support won’t change that.

What can we be doing?
