The rally would follow the announcement on Saturday of U.S. military strikes and land operations in Venezuela, including the capture of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro.
A nationwide “Emergency Response” network involving activist organizations Indivisible, MoveOn and 50501 activated the same day, with protests held Jan. 3 and planned for Jan. 4 in Santa Fe, San Francisco and Indianapolis.
