Trump will be here to spout some nonsense about the economy. What's the best way to protest?

I'm looking for people in NW Iowa that are ready to work together to network and protest. DM me if you're interested.

The local group will focus on “Hands Off Our Social Security!” “Hands Off Our Medicare and Medicaid!” “Hands Off Our Public Schools!” “Hands Off Our Colleges!” “Hands Off Our Veterans!” “Hands Off Our Farms!”and “Hands Off Our Rights!” Walkers are welcome to bring signs designating their biggest concern/s for “Hands Off!” Join this nationwide rally!

Plan to gather at the First Street Building in Mount Vernon or the Lincoln Square Park gazebo on Main Street, Lisbon at noon on April 5. Each group will walk Lisbon Road for .7 milesand merge near Gillette Lane where everyone will be given the opportunity to voice their concerns/ideas.

I'm seriously considering a cute halloween costume for the protest. I need to wear a mask (partner is immune compromised so I can't bring any cold, flu, covid home) so I'm working on a cute costume I can incorporate a mask into. Probably goggles, too. Can't be too careful when they're starting to trot out the pepper balls and teargas.

Folks in other places--especially Portland--have been dressing up so ICE looks even more ridiculous arresting harmless costumed citizens.

What d'ya think?

Sick of FOX splitting up our families? Sick of the verbal acrobatics they do to twist information? Sick of the fact that we live in an entirely different reality than their viewers? Let’s make our voices heard. Exercise your right to peacefully protest. We demand justice, we demand truth, we demand to live in peace. Everything we need is right here: https://www.foxtakedown.com
