Hi all!  Easy-peasy, Loueezy! Post J6 images all day long. Post your own, mine, and anyone else’s, on every platform you can.  Please share this action! Do your best to grow our group, as we will foil their plans in the next 10 months, if we show up in undefeatable masses for every action. I can’t leave…

Be there or be square! Hi All!  closterpatriots will be protesting in front of Closter Plaza, on Vervalen St., Closter, on 1/6/26, from 12-1. The theme for this protest is J6 WAS TREASON. The weather report predicts decent protesting weather on 1/6. It will be mid- to high 30s, but not windy, so break out…

I hope you go to sleep every night feeling blessed Hi All!  Looking forward to lovely holidays! Whatever your celebration, enjoy! There may be gatherings you attend where the future awaits, in the form of people you can bring into the movement and, perhaps,  who would be good candidates for local offices. We need a…

Hi All!  Miami now has its first woman mayor Eileen Higgins, the first Democratic mayor in 28 years! Milestones! The task now is straightforward—to keep the pressure on and maintain momentum. It’s to make the last few weeks of ’25 as bad for the Trump administration and the Republican party as the past couple months have been….

Hi All!  The Republicans have their noses just above water, so our job is to make waves 24/7/365. Republicans must be made to defend the indefensible to widen the cracks in the regime. Showing up is the first thing. These are the weekly actions, all on closterpatriots.bsky.social. Please comment on the posts you’ve taken action on….

I’m Grateful for the Blessing in Disguise Hi All! I’m grateful for another chance in our lifetime to make democracy history. We didn’t resist when our rights were challenged after 9/11; in 2010, with Citizens United giving money more power than the people; or in 2021, when our Congress failed to indict a traitor. We traded our…

Hi All! This week, I’m going to hit the ground running with three time-sensitive actions. The first is from Food & Water Watch, to support the New Jersey Climate Superfund Act (A4696). This is legislation to force polluters to clean up their messes in our state. Part of our charter is to dethrone corporate giants who…

Priority action! Even if you’ve signed elsewhere or before, do so again with this, please. “We are starting to see some Epstein files released but let’s be clear we need Congress to mandate a full disclosure of all the Epstein files. Can you take 2 minutes today to join this fight? Please help us spread the…

We’re on live! Hi All!  It has become clear thatgrassroots communities of voters will drive the pro-democracy movement and the next wave of Democratic politics. It falls to us to define what that will be. So, we have GOALS, kids! What are they? Democracy unchained. Democratic political dominance. Policies that lift, not oppress. Pocketbook politics….

Comes the moment, comes the manYesterday, it rained men! Hi All!  Our votes sent a strong signal that moderates and liberals are not dead, but have risen, ballots in hand, to assert themselves. A big comeuppance to maga, who voted themselves in the foot in ’24, by voting for the immoral center of the universe…

Life After Protesting The Fabulous Frisson of Success Hi All!    We ended our season of protests with a good turnout, about 40, and the heartening sentiment of all that we must find other things to do now to advance our movement. Having that foundation on which to build is a gift. We have a laudable…

PIE IN THE SKY And Blades of Grass on the Ground Hi All!  The last protest of the season is Saturday, 11/1, from 12 to 2 pm, in front of the Closter Plaza. Please bring your lawn signs, so we can line the curb with our Democratic candidates’ names. If you have signs that say…
