In case you wondered how we're doing.

Love seeing the pictures of the #NoKings crowds. What would make me even happier is to know that each of those people is plugged into activist communities that will keep on building power and relationships every day, not just today. The people I've met through #FreeDC are the true silver lining of the dark cloud that is this Trump administration. It's not a sacrifice to spend my time with them - I enjoy it. I want that same feeling of purpose and connection for everyone who protested today.

#BlackMastodon #BlackTwitter #NoKingsDay #FreeDC Thanks to all you democracy warriors who came out today, not just to DC, NY, Boston, and Chicago and places where you could be safe, but also to those brave folks in places like Florida, Texas, Montana, little towns in OH and in the middle of red states. We see you and hold you up. Keep fighting. Keep resisting. We can win. 1/2

Hi folks. If you are in MD or VA and with a group marching into DC tomorrow for No Kings, please stop by the #FreeDC tents. We will be there with #HarrietsWildestDreams and will have lots of information on the push for statehood for DC, KYR, reporting ICE and how to do jury service. No need to register, just drop in. FreeDC will be at the 400 block of C St, NW which is the John Marshall Park.

Great writeup here with some incredible quotes from Anna Heilferty.
“It’s been really just beautiful in how the crowd has come together. And I think in moments like this, especially everything that’s been going in DC, to have an organization like Free DC that really brings people together in these critical moments, gives them a voice, gives them somewhere to put energy when it may feel hopeless. It’s so important.”

Here's a video of the Dash players posing in front of us in their Free DC shirts. I'm hoping we'll get to see the photo soon, along with a similar photo that Esme Morgan, Sandy McIver and Paige Metayer took with us

Shout out also the other Dash players - Paige Nielsen, Yaz Ryan, Delanie Sheehan and Liz Beardsley - for following Anna Heilferty over to the supporters section and putting on the Free DC shirts.
Paige is a former Spirit, Liz Beardsley played at UMD and Yaz and Delanie are, as far as I can tell, simply awesome.
After the game I got to talk to Liz Beardsley who also signed my yellow card. I have a new favorite third string goalkeeper on the Houston Dash :)

Whose brilliant idea was it for #Trump to go to a restaurant in occupied #WashingtonDC??? These people really are delusional.
Watch the people give him the "welcome" he deserves. Buddy shoulda settled for cold hamberders at the White House.
