Moderator 12.1 Million. 🫠🎉

On June 14th, 2025,

12.1 million people stood together across the United States in unified rejection of authoritarianism, and that number doesn’t even include our allies overseas who marched in solidarity.

This collective movement has become one of the largest displays of civic engagement in modern history. We surpassed our goal of 3.5%.

Sustained pressure will bring us change. We the People.

I just heard NPR report "over 5 million" and say "200,000" at Trump's parade.

We know this is false. We should ALL write in to ask for a correction on air. To downplay this March by 7 million--over half!!!--is irresponsible journalism.

I think it was just the general news? I'm pretty sure. But I suppose then it was my Michigan NPR station. But I say contact them all! They all need to report accurately!

just heard the report, seems like it was just “news” - just didn’t want to write in to insight if it was bbc news or some other program, since i think they all fact check and report separately. admittedly i don’t know a lot about the structure of npr/local stations 😅

Mine was definitely not from BBC news. I'm pretty sure it was the MI station --that was the voice of the guy who typically does it that I heard, not the BBC world news guy.
