printable banners, bumper stickers, etc and a PDF to print the logo. I guess you could make your own. I have done that in the past and the t-shirt including my custom logo was about $15.

The tweet shows about 30 people carrying some signs and chanting.

Joshua Potash is trying to start something, but I don't think anything came of it.

Both of my adult daughters are in NYC and are out and about.

They've seen nothing.

There are citizens out there who care enough about their country that they are trying to do something, trying to change things. I give them all the credit in the world.

Just pointing out the inaccuracy of the headline.

If it had been of any size I would have encouraged my daughters to join in.

future protests to expand across the country. Thete was a mention of DC eventually and some planning toward that goal.

I'd love to see a really massive DC demonstration, bigger than the Women's March.

We've a much larger country, let's take over DC and shut it down for a day.

Bernie said that only 20,000 were allowed into Queensbridge Park, so more than that number showed up since some were turned away. Very inspiring speakers. Yes, of course, get rid of Trump, but after that, correct rising income inequality, corporate money in politics, prison-industrial system, a broken health care and pharmaceutical system, underfunded public education, lack of affordable housing, and student and consumer debt.
Did not see this event, but the one I attended was wonderful.
