Montana demonstration at Capital today was very cool. Organized by the Federal and Public Employees Union but with a lot of “Leash the Doge” signs. Afterwards whoever could fit in the rotunda could sit down with legislators at lunch and voice their concerns. I'd say 200 people went in. Not sure I can hold my temper with the Goptiles today so I went home.
Not even close to the size of the Womens' March 8 years ago but meaningful size.
Particularly good speech by a senior at Helena High who’s going to Peabody Conservatory next year. Montana’s education budget has been severely slashed and of course, the department taking the hardest hit is music.
A big hat tip to our Montana brothers and sisters. The phrase ‘slow to anger’ comes to mind. Over here in Iowa, Public School Strong is gaining big momentum. (Iowacci.org/pss)
Educators and community members standing together against the ‘Wheeler Dealer’
With each passing day, I see or read about the lows of the former Republican Party … an agenda of fueling hate and division much greater than the cringeworthy McCarthy era. A tsunami of opposition must grow. Relentlessly. Written, spoken, whispered, drawn, set to music … doesn’t matter.
Wheeler already has “Trump on his rump.”
Thanks for reports from the front.
