I’ve noticed with No Kings is that the protests end up trying to center around the nearest big cities so that you get massive numbers - at the same time you see a bunch of smaller protests all around

This weekend was more spontaneous and certainly seemed to be small protests *everywhere*

I think there’s rules around logos and trademarks (mainly so people can’t pretend to be the IRS or something) - but satire? Certainly allowed

I should note that everything the federal government releases publicly is considered public domain.
