Over the weekend, thousands of protesters took over Times Square in New York City for a massive ‘world freedom rally’ against the oppressive vaccine mandates.
NYC Mayor Bill de Blasio recently began enforcing one of the country’s most authoritarian vaccine passport requirements for schools, restaurants, and public spaces. The mandate has crippled local businesses, which have reported a 40-60% drop in traffic since they were implemented.
New Yorkers are completely fed-up, and rightly so.

The protesters waved American flags and held signs that read “F*ck Biden” and “Let’s go Brandon!” as they marched through the streets chanting “WAKE UP NEW YORK.”

Protesters also made a stop at CNN’s corporate headquarters to hilariously deliver a message to the FAKE NEWS in person.
I think we can all agree with the crowd on this one.
LOVE MY NEW YORK PATRIOTOS!!! CNN SUCKS!!!

The main event, taking place in Times Square, was attended by several prominent local figures who spoke in favor of freedom during the rally. The speakers included members from the right and the left, including Democrat Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Bill Pepitone (Republican NYC mayoral candidate), and even Kevin McCall (a progressive ‘social justice’ preacher).
During Kennedy’s time on stage, he spoke about how the Democrats have worked (somewhat successfully) to take away the first amendment rights of many Americans through the vaccine mandates and Covid lockdowns.
Just like all the others in the crowd, he has had enough of the left’s tyranny.

The radical mandates and restrictions on individual freedoms have created a massive backlash that has started to bring people from all sides together, unifying them in the pursuit of American freedom for the first time in years.
If this movement can continue to spread, these dystopian mandates won’t last long at all.
LET’S GO BRANDON!
