Who is running the current Democrat party protests?

Portland. Maine pro-NATO sign

Santa Cruz, California - Resist what - an end to the Ukraine-Russia war?

Orange County, California. Truth is Russia was provoked since the US orchestrated coup d'etat in Ukraine in 2014 and repeatedly after.

Indivisible, MoveOn and several other groups that led last weekend protests across the nation are in fact promoting the Democrat Party agenda and preparing for the mid-term congressional elections two years from now.

Indivisible in 2024 raised $2,501,804 from PACS. On September 5, 2023, Indivisible Action endorsed President Joe Biden's 2024 re-election bid.

Kenneth Vogel, a reporter at the New York Times, attributed growth in Indivisible during the First Trump Administration to funding from prominent liberals including “the tech entrepreneur Reid Hoffman, as well as foundations or coalitions tied to Democracy Alliance donors, including San Francisco mortgage billionaire Herbert Sandler, the New York real estate heiress Patricia Bauman and the oil heiress Leah Hunt-Hendrix.”

Critics state that the Indivisible Project has increasingly raised money as a grassroots organization but declined to organize/fund its local chapters, spent the majority of its money on funding the national office, and spent an “extraordinarily” excessive amount on salaries

Indivisible Project is a 501(c)(4) organization that says it "empowers [local] Indivisible groups to achieve legislative and electoral victories through legislative advocacy and political campaign expertise, strategic and coordinated calls to action, and a targeted electoral program." It is affiliated with Indivisible Civics, a 501(c)(3) organization, and Indivisible Action, a hybrid political action committee.

Indivisible Project has received more than $7.6 million since 2017 from Open Society Foundations, a nonprofit founded by Democratic mega-donor and business mogul George Soros. Soros is famous for funding 'color revolutions' around the globe to put in power pro-western (aka Washington) puppets. 

I searched for an hour yesterday for the names of Indivisible board of directors. By law they must have one but nowhere could I find their names. They only list Leah Greenberg and Ezra Levin as their Co-Executive Directors. 

Why are the board members names invisible?  

Critical analysis

We had a Bath Iron Works shipyard Lenten vigil (where they build Aegis destroyers that are currently shelling Yemen) at the same time as the Indivisible rally so I did not attend the Brunswick, Maine event but a friend did. He carried a Gaza genocide sign and moved throughout the crowd but saw no other signs about foreign policy.

I'm confident that these groups will do their level best to keep these protests sanitized from critical foreign policy issues.

"Although we have always been for mass actions, and I was not against the mass actions that just took place called the 'hands off' protests, [but] it must be noted that they did not include 'hands off Gaza', which has recently spawned its own mass movement. But it did include 'hands off NATO'. I think this shows that the Democratic Party is still a pro-war party", stated Joe Lombardo who leads the United National Antiwar Coalition (UNAC).

"These demonstrations were Democratic Party demonstrations.  They were called because the Democratic Party understood that there was tremendous anger at Trump's cuts and pro-billionaire policies, and they wanted to capture and head off any movement. The Democratic Party remains, in my opinion, the graveyard of movements. They don't want to build a movement, they want to capture it and turn it into votes for themselves so they can continue to wage their wars and screw the working class.

"I think we should go to these demonstrations and pass out flyers, hold up 'hands off Gaza' signs and talk to people and build OUR movement. But let's not think that this is the movement."
 
New York City-based peace activist Nydia Leaf wrote this morning, "HANDS OFF was a sly betrayal by the Dems of public outrage. Sneaking in support for NATO in the demands was the first inkling.  Folks who went to it were surprised by the setup.  The phony mis-information included  "meet at Bryant Park and march to Madison Park."  In reality, the gathering was outside the park and the conclusion was outside the other park.  No speeches at all -- and April 4th is such an important date in our history because of Dr. King - but no speeches anywhere.  A missed opportunity had it been legit, especially as emails now circulate that war with Iran is Trump's answer if the recession looks like a depression."

Indivisible also touts US Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ) for his recent 25-hour speech opposing Trump in the US Senate. Booker ran for the Dem party presidential nomination in the last round of Dem primaries but got no where. He is likely planning to run for president again next time. He is a long-time hawk and favorite of the Israel lobby organ AIPAC.
 
Listen to this very informative video below by Sabby Sabs about Booker. She shares some revealing footage of Booker speaking to a group of zionists instructing them how to capture young black leaders.

Sabby says Booker, "is a whole ass clown...this guy is a fraud".

First, the biggest falsehood. The mass demonstrations were not organized by the Democratic Party. The national organizations such as Indivisible, DSA, Political Revolution, and MoveOn support the DP, but are not affiliated with it. Second, yes, the Hands Off list included NATO. I challenge you to produce one photo of anyone carrying such a sign in the entire country. Third, in every demonstration that I saw published photos had people supporting Palestine. If you really supported Gaza, you would have brought signs and talked to people. Third, there’s not a single person who doesn’t know Putin invaded Ukraine and has targeted the civilian population and infrastructure. Stop being childish abstentionists and join the join the mass movement.

Joseph, you said, "Second, yes, the Hands Off list included NATO. I challenge you to produce one photo of anyone carrying such a sign in the entire country."

Just take a look at the first photo above.....

It's not a "mass movement" when the Dem linked organizers refuse to talk about foreign policy.

Your comment about Ukraine war indicates that you actually know very little about the subject. I urge you to use the search feature above and put in the word 'Ukraine' and see my posts going back to at least 2014.

Signs of a weak argument: hyperbole ("there’s *not a single person* who doesn’t know Putin invaded Ukraine and has targeted the civilian population and infrastructure" and ad hominem attacks ("childish" + "if you really supported Gaza").
