In light of the historic speech from Sen Cory Booker, who all is going to their local Hands Off 2025 protest this Saturday?

Just in time for the big #protest this weekend!
The chance of asshattery is quite high, so now I’ll have a recording.
And of course I’ll dump the video if nothing happens. Not here to doxx anyone, so don’t expect any video postings from me. Unless shit goes down.
Workshopping another #TeslaTakedown #protest sign idea. This one is a "civics 101" kind of sign. I wanted something to have that reinforced support for courts, and it evolved from that.
US friends. Let’s make this the big one. Let’s flood the streets. PRETTY PLEASE WITH SUGAR ON TOP.

Note that you don’t need to sign up to protest. Just go. In fact, you’re better off not signing up.

If you feel like the protest you’re going to will be less friendly:
Be safe. Be strong. Drink water. Fuck fascism.
Workshopping a new #TeslaTakedown #protest sign idea. I asked my spouse about it. She said the sign wasn't true—she was very mad at the people who voted Trump into office. That's a point, but I still want MAGAs to understand that they are not voting in their best interest.
#ICYMI: James Rodden, a North Texas #ICE prosecutor who the Observer revealed also operated a white supremacist account on the social network X, has drawn both public protest and condemnation from a sitting member of Congress. https://www.texasobserver.org/congressman-veasey-ice-response-racist-x-account/
They're hiding this song from you.
Don't let them.

Thank you, Senator Cory Booker. As of the moment I'm writing this toot, he is still protesting by holding the Floor of the Senate. Turned on C-SPAN just to watch him. Go Senator Booker! Writing him a thank you note too.
#SenatorCoryBooker
#Protest
Edited: to replace the word "filibustering" with "holding the Floor of" since it's technically not a filibuster against a special piece of legislation...it's a broad-based protest of multiple policies.
now he's speaking about the history of the #women's #suffrage movement, about one of the first people to #protest #congress, how she directly challenged president woodrow wilson and how she was then abused by the state
this is hour 19!
he's stammering a little, but his thoughts and rhetoric are fire
cory is on fire
dude's being a fucking us history professor giving a college level lecture to the nation with no sleep
now on to #FrederickDouglass!
much respect #CoryBooker

Here’s my idea: Buy 2 form fitting long sleeve shirts with some stretch. Buy a length of fabric. Cut the fabric into strips and roll them up like a fruit roll up. Sew your fabric rolls to one shirt making horizontal or vertical lines across. Wear the second shirt over the shirt with strips. Wear thick baggy clothes over the whole ensemble.
@ChrisMayLA6 Yes but.... running into a barn dosen't quite have the same ring to it. #Two tier policing #protest

Bring your signs, your noisemakers, your energy and yourself. Plenty of shady spots to sit (bring your own chair) if you aren't up for marching around the building. I'll bring water and snacks!

We Have the Power – This is just the beginning. By coming together, we can stop this attack on our rights and resources.
This Cannot Be Business as Usual – We’re facing an unconstitutional power grab that threatens our freedoms. Now is the time to demand action from our lawmakers and hold those responsible accountable.
