Not sure if this news made it on this thread or not, so here it is. I searched for “Nobody is Above The Law” and lo and behold, it’s Moveon.org, funded by Soros, IIRC:

Alert: Leftists Planning Anti-Trump Rallies in over 900 Cities Tonight

The American left really doesn’t like American democracy.

Not two days after midterm elections gave Democrats control of the House of Representatives in the upcoming 116th Congress, while keeping Republicans in charge of the Senate, progressives are planning national rallies Thursday to keep the country roiling.

Now the pretense is fears for the special counsel investigation into the liberal bugaboo of “Russian collusion.”

A group calling itself “Nobody Is Above the Law” is calling for demonstrations in more than 900 cities around the country, in Canada and even in Europe to denounce acting Attorney General Matt Whitaker’s role overseeing special counsel Robert Mueller’s probe.

Whitaker, who is taking over as acting attorney general after President Donald Trump forced the resignation of former Attorney General Jeff Sessions on Wednesday, will be in charge of the probe now.

Sessions had recused himself from any matters related to the Russia investigation, which left Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein with overall responsibility for Mueller’s actions.

Whitaker hasn’t recused himself, but has made it very clear that he thinks the probe is too wide-ranging.

In a commentary originally published by CNN in August 2017, Whitaker went on record criticizing the limitless scope of the Mueller investigation, arguing that Rothstein needed to rein it in or risk having it devolve into “a political fishing expedition.”

“This would not only be out of character for a respected figure like Mueller, but also could be damaging to the President of the United States and his family — and by extension, to the country,” Whitaker wrote.

To normal people, that might sound perfectly reasonable. To the left in 2018, even after a win at the ballot box as recently as Tuesday, it’s a reason to take to the streets in fury.

House Minority Leader (and likely Speaker-to-Be) Nancy Pelosi on Wednesday called Sessions firing and Whitaker’s stepping in a “blatant attempt” to undermine the Mueller probe.

Her liberal storm troopers are taking direct action.

“Whitaker has publicly outlined strategies to stifle the investigation and cannot be allowed to remain in charge of it,” the Nobody Is Above the Law website states. “The Nobody Is Above the Law network demands that Whitaker immediately commit not to assume supervision of the investigation. Our hundreds of response events are being launched to demonstrate the public demand for action to correct this injustice.”

It’s an “injustice” already that Rosenstein is no longer in charge of an investigation he probably should never have been in charge of in the first place?

NOBODY IS ABOVE THE LAW—MUELLER PROTECTION RAPID RESPONSE

BREAKING: PROTESTS CALLED FOR THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 8, 5 PM LOCAL TIME

Donald Trump has installed a crony to oversee the special counsel’s Trump-Russia investigation, crossing a red line set to protect the investigation. By replacing Rod Rosenstein with just-named Acting Attorney General Matt Whitaker as special counsel Robert Mueller’s boss on the investigation, Trump has undercut the independence of the investigation. Whitaker has publicly outlined strategies to stifle the investigation and cannot be allowed to remain in charge of it. The Nobody Is Above the Law network demands that Whitaker immediately commit not to assume supervision of the investigation. Our hundreds of response events are being launched to demonstrate the public demand for action to correct this injustice. We will update this page as the situation develops.


Donald Trump just crossed a red line, violating the independence of the investigation pursuing criminal charges in the Trump-Russia scandal and cover-up.

Trump putting himself above the law is a threat to our democracy, and we’ve got to get Congress to stop him.

We’re mobilizing immediately to demand accountability, because Trump is not above the law.

Scroll down the top link and find the areas protests are planned, really a lot of them. I just looked at the ones in my state and some are just hamlets and/or not commiepuke infested. Strange.

Looked at the site and noted several scheduled demonstrations nearby. No sign of any activity on the local news at 6:00 PM. The demonstration was to happen at 5 PM. I’ll check again at 11 PM.
