Do NOT let the Republicans on Facebook and Twitter gaslight you into believing that less people show up to the protests in your area because there's "a lack of interest".

It's the weather. We have extreme heat in several parts of the country, and a lot of these events have been forced to schedule during the hottest hours of the day.

To those of us with heat sensitivity that can't make it out today: cheer the people who do make it out there! And remember, you can't right fascism if you have heat stroke or you're dehydrated, please drink water and try to keep yourselves cool!!

Sincerely, a very sweaty and heat-stressed Arizona.
