Demonstrators across the country and the globe will protest against Donald Trump on Saturday at over 3,000 planned events.
Millions are expected to gather across the country and around the world on Saturday for a third round of “No Kings” protests against Donald Trump. Organizers predict that it will be the “single largest non-violent day of action” in American history.
Saturday’s “No Kings” marches, of which there are more than 3,200 planned across all 50 states and several continents, come as Trump faces increasing scrutiny over the war with Iran, the rising cost of gas and how his administration has executed its mass deportation agenda.
“Since the last No Kings [protests], we’re seeing higher gas prices and groceries, all while there’s an illegal war in Iran,” Sarah Parker, a national coordinator for the group 50501, told reporters Thursday on a national press call previewing Saturday’s events.
The same people who say, "What’s the point?’ are the same people who say, “I don’t know any leftists in my area. I don’t know how to many any other “real” leftists irl”.
I met actual leftists way easier by attending reading groups instead of events where everyone just yells while walking in a predictable line till they feel like going home. Ones where we discussed how to educate people and the history of effective socialist movements that actually helped people in their day to day lives instead of just for a few hours.
If they went to local protests, they’d meet those other leftists. Networking absolutely occurs at these events.
Yes, that’s exactly what I’m saying
