DESCRIPTION:NO THRONES! NO CROWNS! NO KINGS!  Rise Up Against Fascism \n\nWE THE PEOPLE 
 have had enough of lies, corruption, rising prices, cruelty and 
 authoritarianism.\n\nFor over a year, millions of people have come together 
 to send a clear message in protest: in America, we have no kings! Power 
 does not belong to billionaires, strongmen, or politicians who believe they 
 are above accountability. \n\nUnlike previous No Kings actions, No Kings: 
 Vote Early, is not purely a protest.\n\nInstead, on October 17th, it’s 
 also a day of nonpartisan voter participation: we are bringing the 
 community together to make a plan to vote early and ensuring every eligible 
 voter understands their options for how to vote and has the opportunity to 
 make their voice heard.\n\nPower belongs to the people, but only if we use 
 it. Join us on October 17 as we RECLAIM OUR POWER!\n\n\nWHEN & WHERE: 
 Nationwide on Saturday, October 17\n\nFind and join a march, rally or 
 action near you: \n\nNo Kings: https://www.nokings.org/#map\n\nAction

 DEMOCRACY: Our Elections Are Under Attack\n\nNo Kings: Vote Early - 
 Protests Against Authoritarianism & Actions to GOTV \n\n"Authoritarianism 
 and oligarchy are looming large, and standing together to cast our vote is 
 one of the most patriotic things we can do right now" \n--Lisa Gilbert, 
 co-president of the consumer advocacy group Public Citizen\n\nEfforts to 
 undermine trust in our elections and make it harder for people to be heard 
 are happening across the country right now. Our democracy depends on every 
 eligible voter having the freedom to participate without intimidation, 
 interference, or barriers.\n\nNo Kings: Vote Early is the next step of 
 reclaiming our power after a year of mass mobilizations.\n\nJoin us to as 
 we defend and demand nonpartisan voter participation by being in community 
 with each other, and making sure every eligible voter has a plan, knows 
 their options, and is ready to make their voice count. \n\nWe decide who 
 represents us. We decide what comes next. For more than a year, millions of 
 people have come together to reject the idea that power belongs to 
 authoritarians, billionaires, and politicians who believe they are above 
 the people and the law.\n\nNo Kings: Vote Early events are nonpartisan and 
 are designed to increase participation from all eligible voters.\n\nNOTE: a 
 core principle behind all No Kings events is a commitment to nonviolent 
 action. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential 
 confrontation with those who disagree with our values and to act lawfully 
 at these events. Weapons of any kind, including those legally permitted, 
 should not be brought to 
 events.\n\n#NoKings\n#VotingRights\n#FreedomToVote\n#ICEOut\n#AbolishICE\n#WorkersOverBillionaires\n#NOWARS\n#StopFascism

 KINGS ARTICLES & PRESS RELEASES\n\nCOMMON DREAMS: \n\nQUOTE: “On October 
 17th, No Kings: Vote Early will show the billionaire elites attempting to 
 destroy our country that We the People have the power by mobilizing turnout 
 to make our elections too big for the evils of fascism and oligarchy to 
 rig,” according to Sarah Parker, a spokesperson for the 50501 movement.
