The League of Women Voters of Washington, a non-partisan organization, joins us in Lake Forest Park as a national partner for the second No Kings protests, and Philippa Kassover and Molly Zaccardi were there to discuss the League’s goals as they greeted people warmly.
The League states, “The threats to our democracy in this moment are alarming. The League must visibly and actively stand in solidarity with all those who support the Constitution and rule of law."
The First LD Democrats hosted a table, too, encouraging everyone to “Stay Involved" and “To Vote!"
This dog looks like a serious protester, staying alert and involved, too.
We know we are getting to President Trump when he posts his evil social media messages. Yesterday, Trump posted a video with him wearing a crown and flying a fighter jet with "King Trump" written on it, and then he dropped a type of waste matter on the heads of protestors.
There is deep opposition to Trump’s 2025 cruel, illegal, and immoral agenda. If you agree, please get involved.

Love the dog
ReplyDeleteGreat turnout!!
ReplyDeleteThe League of Women's Voters has not been non-partisan for decades.
ReplyDeleteNeither has the NRA
DeleteGreat article. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteperhaps the League of Women Voters appears to be partisan because the GOP has lost its way
ReplyDeleteNonpartisan is different than neutral. LWV doesn't support 1 party over another. But they do take stands on issues, for example on voting rights.
ReplyDelete"The threats to our democracy in this moment are alarming." Yet no one has stopped you from exercising any of your rights. A king would never have allowed a "no king" rally. What right has been denied you?
ReplyDeleteThe more you protest the more you prove my point.
National Guard on the streets to control "unrest"?
