You may have noticed a lot of us feeling disappointed in major news organizations for failing to report on the mass protests on April 5th. Or, there are limp articles using words like "Protests in several cities", "Hundreds of people", etc.
On top of that, a lot of us are still feeling negative, saying things like: "Well unfortunately it really changes nothing"; "We did good, but they're just ignoring us"; "They don't care"
However I think we've received a huge gift from them by their actions. Their response is great for us. Here's why:
If April 5th was actually something they didn't care about, and something useless and weak to them, then they would have had no problem reporting on the truth.
When we see the flaccid, weak articles (or lack thereof), and hear the silence, they've accidentally revealed hidden information to us: they are desperately trying to control the narrative, which means they are absolutely panicking right now.
We have power. Incredible power. They want us to believe nothing will change, because if we believe it then it's true.
Let's keep the pressure. They're scared, and they should be.

Absolutely.
Looking forward to April 19th.
What's the 19th?
50501's next protest date.
Especially significant if things go pear-shaped on the 20th which is when the "Can I use the Insurrection act without a literal insurrection?" memos are due.
Can you explain that?
From one of that fat orange traitorous fuck's day one EOs that he totes wrote and totes wasn't written by Stephen Miller:
Trump wants Pete "Whiskeygate" Hegseth and Kristi "Puppykiller" Noem to give him legal cover to declare the southern border as an "insurrection" which would vastly increase what the president could do without direct Congressional oversight, including using the military on American soil against American citizens. Obviously (since they support Trump) neither of them have anywhere close to the qualifications to determine the intricacies of American law as to what an insurrection actually is, let alone if one is occurring right now. So we can assume those reports are gonna tell Trump he's good to go and then... well, that's when things might get real bad.
Whats April 19?
