                      4/2/2025 and 4/5/2025 in the USA and Around the Globe

April 2nd and April 5th, 2025, will be remembered in American History as the first full fledged Anti-Trump, Anti-Maga, Anti-Dodge, and for DEMOCRACY -- by peaceful multi-faceted demonstrations nationally and internationally!

Before Senator Cory Booker, a Democrat from New Jersey, stood up at the podium in the Senate for 25 long hours (ending 4/2/25) and spoke without a break against the current Maga support in the House of Representative and the Senate. He railed against President Trump and his cabinet's policies, en mass firings,  deletion of budgets and reduction/closing of agencies, tariffs, and what bad news every new day brings! Chaos has ensued! The World Stock Markets are in disarray! --

It was Senator Bernie Sanders and Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez who traveled first the country, particular in Republican States and drew up to 40,000 participants for their events - Democrats and Republicans alike. They told the People what's really happening in Washington, D.C.!

Then, April 5th saw more than 1400 separate protests and millions of people participating in all of 50 States! Washington, D.C. drew more than 100.000 marchers. New York City and Los Angeles had huge demonstrations; and so did London, Paris, and Berlin! Every other big and small City, town, and angry members of communities in the USA protested! We joined a sizable group in the hundreds at the first big traffic circle in Gloucester, Massachusetts. Our shouts and signs received supportive honks from the thousand cars that were driving around the circle every few minutes!  The protest lasted for more than two hours. Indeed a huge success!

Senator Booker reminded the American People that together we will be stronger in opposition against Oligarchy,  Trump-ism, and a Nazi-like control of the USA! We will save our Democracy!

Much more can be written and has already been written about our recent and ongoing history, so I would like to end on a lighter note that I borrowed from the Beverly Hills Drama Team:

"The Wzard of OZ is Eighty Years old this year! If Dorothy were to encounter men with no Brain, Heart, or Courage today, she would be in DC."
