BREAKING: A massive crowd has filled the Hart Senate Atrium to demand witnesses, documents, and justice in the Senate removal trial of Donald Trump
Police have banned us from having the silent formations we have had for three weeks, so we have adapted: we are silently swarming

After Reverend Barber and @UniteThePoor

Call your senators NOW at (202) 224-3121 and tell them #WeWantWitnesses
‼️
You can also text "remove Trump" to 50409 to send them each a letter demanding a fair impeachment trial.

(493 posts)more people than this....Those streets in DC should be swarming with people protesting...After reading how people were taking buses etc to march and this is all?

(90,714 posts)...standing at intersections, or on steps facing the crowd.
We've experienced this at DU from the very beginning of the site, when our DU members would report back and post their own photos. We forced WaPo to keep updating their crowd count from "hundreds" to "thousands" and finally "tens of thousands" back in late 2002 or thereabouts, because we wrote (I know I sure did) and called.
We need to be doing that again.

(9,090 posts)advantage - talk radio
any combination of protests at radio stations or the 87 universities that support 260 limbaugh stations, or boycotts of radio stations and hosts that gets the attention of the advertising industry and force them to start asking radio clients if they really want support trump and global warming denial will kill the talk radio monopoly
with the end of the talk radio monopoly looming a lot of senators will see the pro trump pressure disappear, both in terms of their trumper primary opponents not having that advantage, the punishment/rage when limbaugh names them, and them not having talk radio to excuse them for not convicting trump
