Report from the protest at the Federal Building today
Posting from an alt just to keep this free from any crap in my main....
There weren't a lot of us today, but there were some. That matters and it's a start. If it was a setup like some here claimed it was, the people who set it up forgot to show up and make trouble.
I counted:
- Two middle fingers
- Two people yelling something about Trump and/or Musk doing great
- One cab driver saying to get a job (the golden oldies never get stale)
I didn't count the number of people who honked, waved, gave a thumbs up, or otherwise showed support but I'm going to estimate it at 120, maybe more. That felt good.
I think that suggests at least some people who voted for Trump are getting that what's going on isn't what they thought they were voting for. Seriously, who thinks of themselves as conservative but also wants the world's richest man to have uncontrolled access to their tax records?
Not sure when I'll next make it to a protest but I will. Remember, this is a marathon and not a sprint. Give what you can of yourselves but don't burn out.
