Nice! Ongoing protests will get us to critical mass and show them the true power of the people. Also don't forget to keep up the pressure on elected officials, 5calls.org, town halls etc. And the upcoming elections in FL and WI. It's our turn to flood them back.

This morning at Dept of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) HQ in DC as mandatory return to office began, this video played on loop for ~5 mins on screens throughout the building, per agency source.

Building staff couldn’t figure out how to turn it off so sent people to every floor to unplug TVs.
