WASHINGTON DC – This weekend in Washington DC, a diverse coalition of demonstrators have come out to protest against America’s rogue National Security Agency (NSA) and their highly unpopular and illegal surveillance activities.
The demonstration is being called the ‘Stop Watching Us‘ rally, and as of 1pm EST our GMN photographer on the ground, Nemo, reports approximately 1,500 protesters are present at the main location near Washington DC’s Columbus Circle and Union Station Plaza area near Capitol Hill.

The eclectic coalition of supporters for this new event includes some high profile whistleblowers, activists, political leaders, and even a few Hollywood actors who have chosen to voice their privacy concerns in public.
Whether any of the high-profile actors like John Cusack, and Maggie Gyllenhaal, as well as film director Oliver Stone (watch video below) are prepared to direct any of their public angst towards President Obama himself is unlikely as many of these same actors openly campaigned for the democratic party’s White House aspirations over the last two national elections.
