On the eve of what will be truly massive #NoKings protests - I'm noticing a flurry of high-profile people & institutions refusing to bow to Trump. Almost every major airport has refused to air the Kristi Noem propaganda video. Brown & Penn joined MIT in rejecting the Higher Ed Compact. (Cont.)

On Saturday, we wear yellow. ❌👑

What's most significant about today's day of action is the sheer number of locations where protests took place -- more than 1000 towns and cities, all over the country. That's only happened one or two times before *in all of American history.*

Huge and electric Chicago crowd in Daley Plaza at today’s Hands Off rally. Today felt like an inflection point for this rising opposition movement against the demolition of our government & freedoms, & FOR democracy, freedom, dignity for all people. Courage! #handsoff

Rare & vital leadership opportunity in US social movement & democracy defense circles: @moveon.org is hiring a new ED as @rahnamepting.bsky.social steps back after 5 amazing years. The org is on exceptionally strong footing, & has never been more important. Help spread word: lnkd.in/evHRKreP

I like this from @boldprogressives.org - tells a central story very simply. They’re not just smashing government in the abstract. They’re coming for our social security, health care, education, housing, Medicare, even our private information… stealing from all of us.

This was the motto of the civil society movement to resist Bolsonaro’s right wing authoritarianism in Brazil. I learned it from @annagalland.bsky.social and love it. Would love to see American designers do their own interpretations.

Some real awful stuff is coming out of Washington. I'm mostly not in posting mode, but based on my texts, seems maybe helpful to share what I'm seeing.

I talked to my old friend and veteran organizer Anna Galland about, well, <gestures broadly> Really recommend listening to what she has to say. t.co/MJqGR5893i
