Officials from the city of Dallas have canceled planned protest permits for the upcoming Republican Midterm Convention after requests from the Dallas Police Department, according to a local outlet.
The one-hour long protest planned for September 10 had its special permitting revoked. Dallas Police claim that the recommendation for revocation came because they would have preferred to work directly with protest organizers “for a quicker process.”
Event organizers claim that Dallas Police have repeatedly set meetings with organizers only to cancel moments before the meeting or to not show up altogether. Some organizers with the Dallas Against the Trump Agenda Coalition, the protest organizers, claim that the failure to communicate amounts to obstruction.
“They did try to get us in meetings with DPD, and constantly DPD didn’t show up,” Xavi Velasquez said. “DPD didn’t show up, and then whenever DPD reached out to us directly and set up a meeting, they canceled it right before the meeting. So, keeping that in mind, and with DPD running us off of City Hall property, we just have little faith in them respecting our rights.”
“Now we’re supposed to start all over again with the Dallas Police Department,” Jo Hargis told the Dallas Observer. “It just feels like the city and Dallas police are obstructing a rally of people expressing their First Amendment rights, and that it’s a mishandling on their part of an expression that we’re entitled to.”
The Republican Midterm Convention is slated to be the largest gathering of its kind since 2016. Over 20,000 people are expected to participate to hear about the success of the Trump administration since retaking office and the party’s plans to promote prosperity and security heading into 2028.
Attendees will hear from President Donald Trump, Vice President J.D. Vance, and many others across the two-day programming on September 9 and 10.

You forgot Rapist and Pedophile. But great point - they won’t even mention any of Trump’s agenda (despite their name) because most of Trump’s actual agenda (such as clean voting, keeping men out of women’s sports) are 80/20 issues in Trump’s favor.
How about what was discussed at the recent meeting in the oval office with ranchers and farmers? The Clinton administration released wolves into Yellowstone thinking that they would stay there. HA! They are all over now and killing cattle and sheep. The farmers and ranchers are not allowed to shoot them because they are an endangered species. Trump changed this by executive order. .
Trump makes it too easy for the media not to report excellent events like this by sparring with them answering unrelated questions. If they ask enough gotcha questions, Trump often says something outrageous and that is the only thing they will broadcast.
“The Clinton administration released wolves into Yellowstone thinking that they would stay there. HA!”
Wasn’t that part of the deal with the Amalgamated Wolf Workers Union? Seems if the wolves signed the deal, they should be brought into court if they’re being accused of violating it.
But seriously, you make the common conservative mistake of believing that Democrat goal is to NOT harm the country. That’s certainly not the case here as, no doubt, Clinton’s people were warned that the wolves would spread outside the park as national parks don’t have any type of fences on their borders.
These kinds of “protests” shouldn’t be given permits regardless.
They are protests against other people’s freedom of association.
Isn't that a Dem tactic?
If anything drastic happens during the convention,
it’s been nice knowing y’all!
Just detail enough police and keep them on the sidewalk.
