Hi all,
Join us tomorrow, Monday, January 5, 2026, from 12:00 to 1:00 pm at a vigil protesting President Trump’s illegal actions against Venezuela, violations of both U.S. and international law. Congress needs to stand up to President Trump who is only interested in Venezuelan oil. The rational that Venezuela poses a national security risk to the United States because of drug trafficking is only a pretext. President Trump is taking our country back to gunboat diplomacy of the past, when the United States used military action to invade countries for their resources. This reckless action risks a long period of turmoil. The Trump administration does not appear to have a plan. Our country’s history is full of wars that never solved anything, but made conditions far worse for the people in those countries. Afghanistan and Iraq are notable examples! War is never the answer!
Tomorrow’s vigil will be at the corner of Main and Elm Streets, along the Walpole Common near the gazebo.
People should dress for the weather. It will be chilly!
As a peace group, WPJG is committed to non-violence in all we do. At vigils, we expect people to stand peacefully and to act lawfully, to never respond to anyone who makes negative comments or appears angry or hostile, and to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation or to step away. We have lights for our signs"
