In April 2023 at the @ngadc, #DeclareEmergency supporters Tim Martin and Joanna Smith took action to protect our planet. Unlike the #Degas #LittleDancer sculpture, humans don’t have plexiglass to protect us from the effects of climate change. Tim used black paint to represent d to represent #blood. They were both arrested after speaking out and this action resulted in widespread press. This week, the resulting #ClimateTrial is ongoing and expecting to conclude Monday. Follow along for updates and check out our “live” tweets to see what’s happening in the #courtroom! #climateaction

California Governor Newsom didn't request the National Guard be deployed to his state following peaceful demonstrations.

Trump sent them anyway. It's the first time in 60 years a president has made that choice.

Trump's goal isn't to keep Californians safe.

His goal is to cause chaos, because chaos is good for Trump.

The conviction of a peaceful @DecEmergency climate protester on charges of conspiracy shows the disproportionate lengths to which U.S. authorities are willing to go to penalize civil disobedience aimed at stopping climate change cri.org/united-states-…

CONVICTED of conspiracy against the United States! A peaceful climate protester, smeared washable paint on the protective case of Edgar Degas’ statue ‘Little Dancer Aged Fourteen’

The paint was easily removed, unlike the CO2 in the atmosphere pumped out as we burn fossil fuels

Hey #ClimateTrial supporters and supporters of #DeclareEmergency!

Want to write Tim? Here’s the address!

Timothy Martin, DCDC #: 394012
1901 D Street SE
Washington DC 20003

Remember to only write in pen on paper and feds may read his mail.

It’s official.

Tim Martin has been remanded to jail pending his sentencing hearing on August 22. He’ll be held in DC Jail. The judge said Tim displayed “an array of methodologies” that demonstrate contempt of the rule of law.
1/10

But what we especially need are people willing to devote time and if you have any to spare, money. Time for media, time to follow up on anything Tim might need that we can help with - whether it’s communicating with someone outside the jail, doing research.
9/10

What he wants more than anything is to have his message communicated. So we need help with media. Please reach into your hearts and find a willingness to sacrifice. Tim is making the biggest sacrifice of his life. We should to live up to that.
