Anti-Trumpers are planning a massive, nationwide protest against President Donald Trump as part of actions from the 50501 movement over Easter weekend.

The 50501 movement works under the phrase, “50 protests. 50 states. 1 movement” and describes itself as a group fighting to “uphold the Constitution and end executive overreach.” The organization’s next “day of action” falls on Saturday, April 19 — the day before Easter Sunday.

“We are trying to protect our democracy against the rise of authoritarianism under the Trump administration,” Hunter Dunn, a spokesperson for the group, said according to the Washington Post. They claim that their group is not partisan in nature, asserting that Democrats, independents, and Republicans alike are participants in the protests.

Previewing the nationwide protests on social media last week, 50501 claimed to have mobilized over 3 million people.

“This movement has entered the next chapter: the people will mobilize again, and again, until we make a difference. It only takes 3.5% of the population in a sustained resistance in order to make a difference,” they claimed, previewing their April 19 protests.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.
Well, the one in the nearest town to me has a whole 7 participants mentioned. Woo Hoo.  **nononono*

I just hope they stay out of traffic.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

They're just warming up for the riot season. Just imagine if that murderous punk Karmelo Anthony is convicted.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

Well, there were supposed to be nationwide protests on Easter Sunday.  The problem I have with the AP report is it's 6:25 AM EST here on the east coast and it is still pitch black.  Did the AP use a special sunshine machine to get the fine pictures they have or was this a story written in advance? :whistle:

Liberals continue to demonstrate that they have pandemic mental illness, calling men women, burning cars and shops purely out of hatred and bitterness, whining about getting rid of criminals let into our country illegally by inept Joe Biden and his handlers, insisting on racism of DEI, discriminating against whites and Asians in favor of blacks, going crazy over stopping waste and fraud on an unprecedented scale.....

And they keep doubling down on their insanity.
