People contiune to go to the Streets against Trump & Co.
This IS a preview of More to come…..
I’m gonna bet that the protests get little to NO coverage in the media as editors seem to be afraid to offend Trump world with media storiews agaiunst them….
At parks, coffee shops, churches and government buildings around the country, hundreds of people are gathering today with a simple message: “Stop the Trump takeover.”
The rallies are a bid to combat Republican-led plans to redraw congressional maps. The main event will take place in Texas, where a new congressional map backed by President Donald Trump that could net Republicans five additional seats in the 2026 midterm elections inspired the state’s Democratic lawmakers to flee the state – preventing the quorum needed to vote.
“Trump is terrified of the American people,” said the Texas for All Coalition, which is helping organize the events, in a news release. “He knows he can’t win on his ideas, so he’s trying to take Congress by hook or by crook – and he’s doing it by silencing the voices of communities of color. We’re not going to let that happen.”
Organizers emphasized “a commitment to nonviolence” at all events in event page descriptions.
Over 200 events are planned in 34 states, according to the event’s official website. The Democratic National Committee is helping organize events, it announced in a news release.
“From coast to coast, people will be showing up at their statehouses, city halls, and community spaces to make it clear – we see what Trump is doing, and we won’t stand for it,” said the DNC.
A swath of nonprofits and other organizations are also supporting the effort, including Planned Parenthood, the Working Families Party and Human Rights Campaign.
Trump described the proposed Texas congressional map as a “very simple redrawing” at the White House. “We pick up five seats,” he added….

Nationwide demonstrations
Events and rallies are also scheduled in dozens of other states, both in Democratic strongholds and Republican-majority states. Local organizers planned each city-specific event.
In New York City, demonstrators are expected to gather in Central Park. In Washington, DC, where Trump has deployed the National Guard and declared a federal takeover of the local police department, organizers are painting banners and signs to place around the city.
Protesters in Raleigh and Durham, North Carolina, plan to hold a “bridge brigade,” holding signs on 16 different bridges.
Demonstrations are also planned in Cincinnati, Ohio; Sarasota, Florida; and Jefferson City, Missouri, among other cities. The planned events include rallies, teach-ins, banner drops and art-making at locations that include a bookstore in Jacksonville, Florida, and a Tesla showroom in Palo Alto, California.
The demonstrations follow a string of other protests organized since Trump took office for the second time in January, including the “No Kings” protestsin June and demonstrations against the president’s deportation campaignin July…..
