A group of millennial activists from across the country plan to open a movement house in Washington DC next month, which will serve as a permanent base to protest Donald Trumps presidency.
The organizers are mostly women of color, many of whom campaigned for Bernie Sanders during the Democratic primary.
The house, which will be set up by inauguration day on 20 January, has been dubbed District 13, in a reference to a rebellious neighborhood in the Hunger Games books and films.
Activists told the Guardian that it will serve as a space for the best kinds of troublemakers from around the country. The property will be located in Capitol Hill, close to the White House and the Capitol building, and will enable activists to quickly mobilize against Trump should he court controversy during his presidency.
Ultimately its to make sure we hold him accountable, said Moumita Ahmed, the founder of Millennials for Revolution, a group which span off from the Bernie Sanders-supporting Millennials for Bernie.
Because his presidency is not normal at all. Its our duty to make sure he doesnt succeed.
If he succeeds its a message that everything he stood for is OK. That its OK to get to power in the way that he did, and hurt all the people hes hurt.(continued)

Bowel movement house?
The phrase “Get a job!” comes to mind.
what people has he “hurt”?
They don’t like the way he came to power?
Will someone PLEASE inform these idiots that Bill Clinton did NOT win the POPULAR VOTE TWO TIMES !!!
I need a damn drink...
Sounds more like a bowel movement.
The organizers are mostly women of color, many of whom campaigned for Bernie Sanders during the Democratic primary.
They want bh0 to have a third term. i’m sure that he will be advising them and Soros will be paying the bills.
Soros paying the rent, of course.
Good, pony up, start spending worthless money, and to what end little petulant fools?
You're living in a fantasy world and that is dangerous.
Sounds like the Oakland “ghost ship”...,,
Secret Service is probably interviewing potential ‘Moles & Imbeds’ for that meeting place as we speak.
If I were trump, I would throw the IRS in front of them and keep a close eye on where all their money comes from. Throw 2-3 FBI agents at them too. Just for good measure.
I don’t know how far Trump is going to go or how far I want Trump to go, but clearly there is a problem coming to a head during his administration. That is, what does a president do when the loyal opposition turns into the disloyal opposition?
They couldn’t hold down a job. They perpetual begging crowd.
the democrats cheated their boy bernie out of a spot on the ticket so they protest someone who has nothing to do with it.
democrats..a special kind of stupid..
This is great for the economy in DC. Trump should thank them for all the money they are bringing in to businesses. And he should ask them to make sure they clean up their trash during and after their events out of respect for the citizens of the areas where they protest.
That should be ANTI-Trump protesters.
The ‘anti’ is important.
To start, how are they paying rent for commercial space on Capitol Hill? Not cheap.
