https://handsoff2025.com/aboutOn 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 rightsenabled by Congress every step of the way.
They want to strip America for partsshuttering Social Security offices, firing essential workers, eliminating consumer protections, and gutting Medicaidall to bankroll their billionaire tax scam. Theyre handing over our tax dollars, our public services, and our democracy to the ultra-rich.
If we dont fight now, there wont 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. Well show up at state capitals, federal buildings, congressional offices, and city centersanywhere we can make sure they hear us.

This is good. Expect a season of increasingly voluminous mass action, because that's what it will take. . . . . nt

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!!!

My wife and I are a bit creaky and walking is difficult for us (her knees, my heart), but we'll be there on April 5!
