These protests have popped up around the country. How coordinated are they? Diane asks Jane Coaston, Vox senior political reporter.
While I am certainly receptive to the Liberate America protests I also was aware they are quite political and tied into the republican political machine so I’ve kept my distance from the protests locally. It’s always fascinating how the grass roots protests get mixed in with big money and professional organizations. It’s no different than the anti-war or anti-Trump protests. Grass roots often join forces and make piece with monied interests.
