"People from across #Virginia are joining us on July 17th to line Monument Avenue in Richmond to create a 3 mile long chain of advocates defending our democracy, defending our communities, and committed to defeating Trump’s chaos.

"But if you have limited mobility, are concerned about the heat, or have other health issues, we invite you to take part by serving as our car cheerleaders!"

Since our #TeslaTakedown was kinda hot, I only had one protest dog for you. For more pups against fascism, I give you Dash the protest dog and his friends!

InstagramDash 🌈🐾 & Chase on Instagram: "It was a grrrrreat day for getting into some good trouble! @electrify_expo came to Marymoor Park this weekend, right in our backyard. They still allowed Tesla to participate, even though they’re America’s most unsafe car brand, had 5 million+ vehicles recalled last year, and their autopilot system sucks. Oh, and their CEO & largest shareholder is a fascist oligarch who’s actively attempting to dismantle our democracy. That might be a spicy take, but it’s accurate. Speaking of heat, it was 84° during the protest so I tried to stay in the shade & the hooman made sure I had plenty of water to drink 💦 I even met another #ProtestPup with a sign named Snickers 🐕 The Grrrrrevolution continues ✊🏼🐾 . . . #GoodTrouble #TeslaTakedown #electrifyexpo⚡🌎 #BoycottTesla #elonmusk #boycott #tesla #teslamodel #democracy #community #action #watchdog #power #protest #rally #resist #sign #signs #seattle #redmond #saturday #weekend #dog #dogs @troublemakers @tesla.takedown"46 likes, 0 comments - dash.dog on July 12, 2025: "It was a grrrrreat day for getting into some good trouble! @electrify_expo came to Marymoor Park this weekend, right in our backyard.

After observing one's effect last week, this week I brought a WHISTLE to the #TeslaTakedown demonstration in Devon. Very effective for getting the attention of drivers, getting them to look at our signs. WAKE UP, mine said.

I apologize to those standing near me, as my whistle was loud, and frequent.

#protests

Immigrant rights groups and the National Day Laborer Organizing Network are organizing protests and boycotts targeting Home Depot. Many small businesses and places of worship and schools have taken steps to protect anyone on their property from #ICE. Anybody can do it, and we're talking a multibillion dollar corporation built on the backs of immigrants-- yet Home Depot just lets ICE abduct their workers.

I was shopping at Lowe's anyway.
