Last Saturday, more than 7 million Americans gathered in cities and small towns across the country (not including thousands more in cities like London) to protest the increasingly authoritarian posture of Trump’s presidency. He is usurping Congress’ Article I spending power, sending federal agents and military forces to occupy and terrorize American cities, and corruptly enriching himself through official acts – more or less like King George.
Scott K and I both attended rallies, and I spoke at the Williamsburg/James City County Indivisible rally in Williamsburg. This week we discuss what we saw at these rallies, how the right wing attempted to discredit them, and how the right responded once they saw the peaceful – almost joyously party vibe – nature of the protests and protestors.
Please take a look and let us know what you think. You can also listen on Spotify.
Thanks!
