So, someone commented on hubby's BlueSky post that the #April19th #PortlandME rally was BIGGER than the #April5th rally (it was getting bigger as we were leaving at a little after 1pm...)

"Thousands of people gathered in Monument Square in Portland Saturday to protest what they say are threats to democracy, human rights and the U.S. Constitution from the Trump administration.

"The rally was one of many that took place in more than a dozen towns across Maine and organized as part of a national day of action by groups across the state."

#Protesters rally in #PortlandME, advocating for protection of rights amid Trump tensions

Story by Allyson Lapierre, WGME

PORTLAND, Maine (WGME) -- "Making their voices be heard on a day of #revolution, a rally on Saturday pays tribute to the #250thAnniversary of the 'shot heard around the world,' a day that marks the start of the Revolutionary War.

" 'They’re taking away my Social Security and my #MaineCare away from me...which side are you on?' Olivia McDermott, who has #DownSyndrome, said.

"McDermott came to advocate for herself and others who have #disabilities who depend on #SocialSecurity and #Medicaid.

" 'I get really upset that this is happening to me and other people with #disabilities. They go to school like this, and I don’t want people to feel uncomfortable about it,' McDermott said.

"Olivia's mom, Maura Mcdermott, is a #SpecialEducationTeacher. She's worried the $Trump administration could take away those benefits.

" 'We need to not cut the services. We need to expand #MedicaidForAll people, and we need to #TaxTheRich. Enough of this,' Maura said.

"Other protestors voiced concerns about state politics, specifically about Maine senators.

" '#SusanCollins had better vote 'no, no, no' to the #SAVEAct because those are all voting rights, and we need voting for next election,' Nina McKee, a Scarborough resident, said.

"Despite the anniversary of the #AmericanRevolution, protesters on Saturday said there's little to feel #patriotic about.

" 'I can’t even express the need for us to stand up against what is happening in our country. It is beyond consumption,' McKee said.

" 'There’s no good thing going on right now, so any change is for the better,' Duncan Potter, a Brunswick resident, said."

[Thread] Photos from the #PortlandME #April19th rally at #MonumentSquare. When we arrived at Noon, there was already a decent crowd. By the time we left at 1pm, more folks were streaming in (and it got a bit loud and overwhelming for me). But it was a good crowd, and we received lots of support from those driving by as well.

A city square with people holding up signs. There is still space between groups of people. The people are surrounding a statue of the goddess Nike ("Our Lady of Victories"). In the distance is a grey, tall office building with the words, "Bank of America" on the top level. Some of the signs from the protest read: "Defend Democracy," "Not My President," "Stop him," and "Democracy is worth fighting for." The sky is grey.

A city square with people holding up signs. The streets are crowded. The people are surrounding a statue of the goddess Nike ("Our Lady of Victories"). In the distance is a grey, tall office building with the words, "Bank of America" on the top level. There are Pride flags, Palestinian flags, and a signs that read: "Impeach the President" and "Make Nazis Afraid Again." The sky is cloudy, but blue sky is starting to appear.

Happy protest day to everyone who can take a moment to get out there and say, “This is not okay! None of this is okay! Make it stop!!!” See you in the streets. #Resist #DayOfAction #50501Protests

A protest sign has a picture of Trump’s orange face and says, “Does This Gaslighting Make My Face Look Orange”.

A protest sign has an image of Obama making his viral crowd size hand gesture and says “Let’s Talk About Crowd Size!”

I read there are 700 planned rallies for tomorrow- last round was 1200-1300- I hope the crowd size doubles. We need to show we are not OK with authoritarianism!💙💪 #takeaction #dayofaction
