The No Kings alliance, the left-leaning groups that just pulled off a massive protest against Donald Trump, is officially rolling out a nationwide rapid response network that’s going to call on supporters to take new actions every single week. After an estimated seven million people flooded the streets last weekend, the leaders of the movement told The Guardian there’s serious energy for “some type of disruption,” and they’re not messing around.
Future actions could include targeted boycotts, campaigns at universities, more street protests, and electoral organizing in local communities. This is huge news, and it signals that the era of passive opposition is absolutely over, as one organizer put it, “The No Kings era is here, and it’s defined by widespread mass defiance of this regime”.
