We need a Massive Tax Protest this Sunday

Something huge. Are there any organizations getting a mass, multi-city protest together? They should. We need to hit the streets by the millions to stop the republicans from Transferring Our Wealth to the Already Rich by imposing a freaking sick Hereditary Plutocracy on America with their screw-the-people & cream-the-billionaires Republican Tax Ream Job.

I was supposed to go to Sen Cruz's office with my Indivisible group today. However, my husband had off today and we had to take care of a bunch of family business. I may go to Cruz's office by myself tomorrow, but I hate going to his office by myself. Cornyn's office staff is much more humane, but I have to take the bus downtown to his office.

My son and his wife are coming tonight and they will be staying with us through Sunday.

The timing of the tax scam with Thanksgiving is a big PITA.
