I organized a grassroots coalition to rally in front of my Long Island R Congressman’s office. We held the rally yesterday (Hopium Day).

Simon we had 400-500!!!!!!!!!! people show up!!!!! Rep. Garborino has never had a crowd at his office like that. He touts how bipartisan he is. F that shit he is a Trump enabler just like the rest of the spineless Republicans.

I spoke first.

I began with:

We are Americans & we are here because we love our country! (Crowd roared)

We oppose DOGE takeover!

We oppose cutting Medicaid to fund tax cuts for the rich!

We want an in person town hall!

There were speakers, music and chants. We collected hundreds of signatures demanding an in person town hall and delivered them to the staffer.

The local news came and the rally has been on the news today on a loop!

I’ve never done this before. But I’m here, now, just like all of us in the Hopium community and across the country. And we’re already planning a town hall for our rep who will not show. Together we will win!

Visualize the WH mail room: On March 15, many people will mail Donald Trump a postcard that publicly expresses our opposition to him. And we, in vast numbers from all corners of the world, will overwhelm the man with his unpopularity and failure. We will show the media and the politicians what standing with him—and against us—means. And most importantly, we will bury the White House and post office in pink slips, all informing Trump that he's fired.

Each of us—every protester from every March, each Congress calling citizen, every boycotter, volunteer, donor, and petition signer, if each of us writes even a single postcard and we put them all in the mail on the same day, March 15, well: you do the math.

No alternative fact or Russian translation will explain away our record breaking, officially-verifiable, warehouse-filling flood of fury. Hank Aaron currently holds the record for fan mail, having received 900,000 pieces in a year. We're setting a new record: over a million pieces in a day.

So sharpen your wit, unsheathe your writing implements, and let Donald Trump know what you think about his actions.

Spread the word. Everyone on earth should let Trump know how he's doing. They can't build a wall high enough to stop the mail.

Then on March 15, mail your messages to President Donald J Trump, the White House 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW Washington, DC 20500.
