DC

On the 19th of September, a crowd estimated by Twitter posters at over 1,000 gathered at the Supreme Court to remember Ruth Bader Ginsberg-and to warn GOP Senators NOT to attempt to ram through a Trump nominee prior to the election. Elsewhere in town, the Fuck the Police march confronted wealthy white restaurant patrons about the behavior of the police they are funding.

Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg died on Sep 18, and was remembered that night by progressive activists outside the Supreme Court. The stakes just went WAY up for the 2020 election. No replacement can likely be confirmed before the election, and if the Senate changes hands any Trump nominee will be rejected. The next Supreme Court justice will be picked by the NEXT president, and may or may not be confirmed.

On the 18th of September, Extinction Rebellion DC showed up outside CNN's DC headquarters with a desk,a mock CNN anchor team, characters including a devil and fire spirits, and plenty of brightly colored smoke. They were there to protest CNN's near-total lack of coverage of the role of climate change in fueling the West Coast wildfires whose smoke plumes have reached Europe.
