https://substack.com/@slimvampire1/note/c-105926758?utm_source=notes-share-action&r=l4ucz I shared some tips on How to Stay Safe at a Protest in a video on IG and TT. It went viral. As an independent journalist, I'd like to move over to Substack. My How to Stay Safe vid is linked above. If it's helpful, I hope you will subscribe, share, and add any tips I may have left out. See you out there. Stay safe.
I was on the Indivisible call yesterday afternoon and another nationwide day of Protest was mentioned - May Day. (May 1st falls on a Thursday this year).

As a Canadian, Andrew someone who happened across your inform by chance, I just had to leave a comment telling you that you are doing great work! (And also because we share a last name! 🙌🏼)
May we all hope the protests go smoothly, and have a peaceful, and productive outcome!
This is amazing, but I hope every single one of these is well attended. I fear that stretching ourselves so thin in so many separate locations means media coverage will look like there aren’t many people there. 🤞🏻💙
It's very important that these demonstrations be PEACEFUL. Trump is looking for a reason to declare martial law.
"On January 20, 2025, Trump signed an executive order declaring a national emergency at the southern border. It gave the Department of Defense and the Department of Homeland Security just 90 days to deliver a joint report on whether he should invoke the Insurrection Act. That deadline is April 20. This wasn’t about immigration. It was about power. The Insurrection Act, passed in 1807, gives the president the authority to deploy the U.S. military on American soil. That means troops in our cities. That means bypassing governors. That means suspending protest rights. That means the death of democratic dissent—under the false pretense of restoring order. "
Amazing work. Thank you for your part.
Please keep me informed as to the turn out :/ my voice is with you all. 💙🩵💙🩵
I’m saving! Thank you from many of us who see the dangers and commit to doing something to course correct before we no longer have a Republic

I hope you feel better soon!

Great to see so many more protest locations added over the past day. Look at Montana!
Montana is a dark horse. I’m shocked.
