We had another big turnout for the national protest this last Saturday! The wind was crazy but the rain held off until we were done. We had about the same amount of people was last time, close to 300. Not bad for a deep red state. There were so many honks of approval from drivers.

We went to the local protest in Elm Grove, WV on Saturday 4/19! Surprised yet happy at how many showed up since it was a holiday weekend. I think it was a pretty good turnout considering. Again, more positive honking, thumbs ups, waving than the dumpers calling us fascists or giving us middle fingers.

Today in Lowell... #nokings #handsoff2025 #lowellma

The funniest/stupidest interaction during the protest today was a middle-aged white guy in a huge truck who stopped at the intersection, rolled down his window, and idled his truck for ten seconds before finally yelling "Go away!" and roaring off.
I'm 100% sure his words would have been a lot more offensive if he hadn't been facing a wall of older white women.
We laughed at him. He deserves to replay that in his head over and over and burn with humiliation. Pathetic.

Another thing I need to mention about yesterday's protest in Wheeling, WV. At one point, a funeral procession rolled through with about a dozen cars. Everybody went completely silent. The bullhorns and the chanting stopped. Signs were lowered. Ball caps were removed. We shared a moment of silence, all without a single order to do so. It was a beautiful moment seeing so much dignity and respect coming from a group of people.

Excellent break down of what is happening and why it's wrong, that can be shared with people who are still unclear about what's going on.

We found a video someone posted about the protest we went to yesterday! Of course our local red news stations didn't have much or anything to say about it but wow! I didn't realize how many folks showed up! The wrap around the intersection was a lot more than I could see.

I'm excited to share some photos from my first protest. Wheeling, WV was our closest location. There were estimates of around 300 people protesting there. Not bad for a deep red state. I wish I took more photos, but I had a great time and met a lot of good people.

Some scenes from the #AugustaME #HandsOff rally (not my images -- from the Kennebec Journal)
by Hannah Kaufman, Kennebec Journal
AUGUSTA — "By about 2:20 p.m., the protest in Augusta had effectively ended, but for a smaller group, the march continued, with some making their third and fourth laps around the block.
Organizers had intended the march to take place on the sidewalk, but the width of Capitol Street was filled with a throng of protesters shortly before 2 p.m."Vivian Myers-Jones, a protester from New Brunswick, Canada, said an organizer estimated 3,000 people were at the protest during its peak.
"Several students from Bates College in Lewiston said they came to Augusta to protest in support of #Palestine. One student, Dylan, said action on the Israel-Hamas war is overdue.
"'We’ve been seeing a genocide unfolding before our eyes for years now, and it’s overdue that people are doing something,' he said. 'We’ve been trying to make change, and I think some people are being shocked into action now, which is good to see.'
"Another student, Robert, said it’s important to exercise the right to protest.
'We’re fighting to continue fighting — about Palestine, about everything that’s going on in this country,' he said.
It’s important that we come together now.'"Original article:

‘Listen to the people’: Thousands demonstrate across #Maine for national day of action against #Trump
#Mainers rallied in over 20 towns against mass firings and cuts to federal programs
By: Lauren McCauley - April 5, 2025
"'The power of the people is more important and stronger than the people in power.'
"That was what U.S. Sen. Angus King told the thousands of people who gathered on Congress Street in Portland on Saturday to protest the administration of President Donald Trump. [#UselessSusanCollins wasn't there. Nothing new...]
"According to organizers, 3,000 people attended the #PortlandME rally, which was just one of more than 20 events held across Maine as part of national '#HandsOff!' actions to demonstrate widespread opposition to the gutting of the federal government spearheaded by billionaire advisor #ElonMusk.
"The town mall in #BrunswickME, where over 500 people rallied, was a sea of homemade signs. Maine Senate President Mattie Daughtry, who represents the district, was among the crowd and noted it was one of the few times in her life she’s seen 'this many people gathered for something like this.'
"The message, she said, is 'to listen to the people.'
"'A lot of the signs that I saw were about ‘Hands off our Social Security,’ ‘Hands off our libraries,’ ‘Hands off our health care,’ I think what we’re saying is, you can’t completely unravel the fabric of our society without people noticing.'"

Thousands gather in #BangorME for "#HandsOff!" rally
by Cali Warren Apr 5, 2025
BANGOR -- "On Saturday, Bangor's waterfront was packed with thousands participating in an initiative called "Hands Off" - one of several protests happening all over the state and nation."'Hands off, it's a national mass mobilization so all over the world, all over the country, people are taking protests to the streets,' said organizer Amanda Roy.
"Protesters advocated against cuts to healthcare and government offices, and rallied for #equality and rights for #PeopleOfColor, #immigrants and the #LGBTQ+ community.
"You name it, we're facing critical cuts, veterans and their benefits, federal employees, everything. This isn't the America that I want to live in," Roy stated.
"'I think a lot of people are here because, hands off of our #SocialSecurity, hands off of our #Medicaid, hands off our #healthcare, hands off our #HumanRights, our #CivilRights,' explained rally volunteer Deborah Lee.
"Elected officials say it's important to hear Mainer's voices at these large-scale protests.
"'We don't have billions or millions here in Maine, we're just regular Mainers speaking up, but we the people do have the power to make change and to stand up for our communities and to help each other,' explained Secretary of State Shenna Bellows, who attended the rally as a guest speaker.
"'What a time to be alive, we are all living in history...I honestly would not choose to be in another time than this one right here. I feel so incredibly moved to just exist right now, in this moment where I see such energy, such #resistance, such camaraderie,' said Bangor City Council Member Joseph Leonard."
