Thanks for showing up! And I love that 94 year old woman! Fantastic! I was at the Miami Beach protest and was struck by the lack of haters flipping the bird, as well as of course the camaraderie and the joy of those gathered. Maybe finally the tide is turning?

Donna, Miami Beach — yes! The joy is real, isn't it. Not spite, not fear — actual joy. That's what surprised me too. We had a few haters flipping the bird and shouting, but hey it's New Jersey.

Something does feel different this time. 8 million people, and it felt like a beginning.

Yes, definitely girl! I did see your photos on the Gram already. Would love to hear more about your thoughts.

I love your sign, Ilona! And thanks for sharing the picture of the 94-year-old woman. Her conviction is inspiring.

My husband and I went out, and it was the biggest crowd so far. Now...the next step.

I think your sign must've gone viral because I heard that Czar Trump honked his horn in DC on Saturday 34,000 times! Oh, wait, no, according to the White House the Donald Trump mentioned in the Epstein Files (or what has been made public so far anyway...) is a plumber in Delaware.
