Protests planned across US on Presidents Day in response to Trump's national emergency for border wall

By Aris Folley - 02/16/19 06:33 PM EST

Protesters have planned demonstrations across the U.S. for Presidents Day in response to President Trump’s decision to declare a national emergency for border wall funding.

USA Today reports a wave of protests have been planned from New York to California and Texas to oppose the president’s national emergency declaration.

A number of demonstrations are being planned by the liberal advocacy group, MoveOn.org, and others have been listed on Rally List.

“Donald Trump has declared a #FakeNationalEmergency—an illegal power grab from an unhinged man to push his racist, dangerous policies,” MoveOn.org states on its site for protests taking place on Presidents Day.

"We're mobilizing rapid-response events on Presidents Day—Monday, 2/18—against Trump's fake crisis and racist deportation force and to stand with immigrant, Muslim, and Black and brown communities to stop Trump's dangerous and illegal power grab," the group continues.

The site also allows users to input a zip code or city to find the nearest protest to attend on Monday.

It’s the president’s call. His decision alone.

I went to moveon.org and put in my zip code to find a protest near me. The response was:

“Looks like there are no events near you right now.”

Thank Goodness!!!!

Hell at this point, I’m all in for a brand new holiday - “President Donald Trump Day”..
//////////////////////////////////
Love it.
He should land at the Donald J. Trump International Airport to give the first honorary speech, carried on the New DTNN (Donald Trump News Network—using the bandwidth the defunct and eliminated old CNN used to broadcast on.) Van Jones,Don Lemon,Wolf Blitzer, Rachel Maddow,Hillary,Huma,Obama,Comey,McCabe,Mueller and the others are watching in the prison lounges on big screen TVs.

Huma to Hillary: “Did you guys get frozen peas tonight instead of mixed vegetables? The back rows did. Our menu cards were wrong.” Hillary: “Shut up.”

Me:
Gee, can’t I sleep in a little longer? I’m loving this dream.

“What is fake about the thousands of murders of US citizens by illegal aliens?”

They aren’t black, and they weren’t shot by cops. So their lives don’t matter.

I bet the “protests” won’t amount to much. Some aging hippies, and Larouchies wondering what to do now that their fearless leader’s feeding the worms instead of telling them what to think.

Didn’t they already do that in Charlottsville, Virginia? OWS character filed for the march permit for the “white supremacists”.

DTNN vs CNN:

I’d made a suggestion once before that Trump stage a hostile corporate takeover of CNN then fire everyone there on Day One. After he leaves office, of course...

Oh Hell, screw that, just do it NOW using the power of Fedzilla, like the dems do.

Just sayin’, allkindasortahypotheticallikeansh*t...

And while we’re at it, let’s change the Constitution to give Trump a THIRD TERM...

You know, like the dems wanted to do for OBunghole...

Again, just sayin’....

I know I kinda late on this but my local CBS affiliate covered a few of these protests. Only showed a few close of shots of people and no wide group shots. I’m guessing crows were very small.

"His bday is 2/22, not 2/18"

Yes, I know - but we have traditionally celebrated his Birthday on a Monday - the 3rd one usually being the closest to the 22nd.
The closest Monday is a lot different than having to share a day with Woodrow Wilson and Jimmy Carter....

It’s coming and it won’t be pretty. These commies and their comrades in the Congress and media are nothing less than treasonous subversives.

Partner, u said a mouthful with this statement and so true. Thanks for this statement.

These DemonRat Socialist/Communist are now going the wrong direction and the citizens of this great Nation are locked and loaded.
