If federal police in your local jurisdiction wearing masks and military tactical gear without name tags and badge numbers along with Title 10 soldiers doesn't concern you enough to take action; you're on the wrong side of history, need to study the Constitution, and may be next. This is not a drill.

Start with attending a rally on Saturday in support of 'No Kings'. Then vote to retain the judges that have defended the constitution in your state. This is very important in PA next fall. We must retain the judges that supported our legal rights.

show up at protests. talk to magas u know (we all know someone). email &/or call members of congress, offer specific concerns/requests for action. boycott maga businesses as best u can (there’s an app for that) impact derives from numbers. engage & encourage others to do so.
