We the people are speaking out at every capital in every state, today, now!
A growing movement opposing President Donald Trump’s early actions is organizing protests across all 50 states on Wednesday.
What to Know:
The movement uses the hashtags #buildtheresistance and #50501 (50 protests, 50 states, one day).
Many demonstrations are planned at state capitols, while others will take place in major cities.
Flyers circulating online denounce Project 2025 and call for action against fascism and deportations.
Organizers, like Kelsey Brianne in Michigan, are mobilizing communities with grassroots efforts.
Protests have already begun, with thousands marching against deportation policies in Los Angeles on Sunday.
The movement has a website at 50501movement.carrd.co and is active on Instagram, Reddit, Bluesky, Discord and Signal.
As is yours.
I agree kinda. However, I’m not discouraging them as to their protesting potentially being useless now. I’m trying to stop you from doing that negative thing/showing others it’s fine to do it now.
There are valid reasons why not to protest/revolt before the election. No one knew how it would turn out, Rs could have been crushed. Even with Trump, it wasn’t incredibly likely that he would let Musk completely dismantle everything. Of course it was a possibility, but it’s a bit different to protest a possibility and to protest something actually happening, so I think it’s fine if you would protest in the one case but not the other.
Was that more helpful?
Yes thanks for the thoughtful background.
