Hands Off! NATIONWIDE Mass mobilization rally/protest April 5. Organized by Indivisible and many other activist groups.

https://handsoff2025.com/about

On Saturday, April 5th, we rise up with one demand: Hands Off!

This is a nationwide mobilization to stop the most brazen power grab in modern history. Trump, Musk, and their billionaire cronies are orchestrating an all-out assault on our government, our economy, and our basic rights—enabled by Congress every step of the way.

They want to strip America for parts—shuttering Social Security offices, firing essential workers, eliminating consumer protections, and gutting Medicaid—all to bankroll their billionaire tax scam. They’re handing over our tax dollars, our public services, and our democracy to the ultra-rich.

If we don’t fight now, there won’t be anything left to save.

This is the moment where we say NO. No more looting, no more stealing, no more billionaires raiding our government while working people struggle to survive.

On April 5th, we take action. Across the country, thousands of people will march, rally, disrupt, and demand an end to this billionaire power grab. We’ll show up at state capitals, federal buildings, congressional offices, and city centers—anywhere we can make sure they hear us.

I am fuming about it all!!! Everyone who understands what is going on absolutely must show up for this and every other protest you can access until he's impeached and/or gone from the presidency!!! WE THE PEOPLE can not and should not tolerate this attempt to destroy our government and democracy!!!
