April Protests: Tax Day 15th, Earth day 22nd, Climate Day 29th. Apparently not a thing.

Are any of these a thing? A quick google shows mix up of date, and lack of news coverage since beginning of Feb.

Have the Russians/Trump succeeded in mixing up the news by claiming the climate protest to be a week after the science/earthday event?

Has the crazy news of Intel committee investigations gone off track distracted people from the lack of ethics in the business dealings of Trump and his family? (Tax Day).

Has the take-over of the EPA by the Koch Brothers been shoved off the reporters calenders because of the stunning loss of the GOP in the Obamacare repeal?

What's going on? Will these protests happen and will they just be ignored like the anti Iraq invasion protests of 100,000's in NYC in 2003?

I need to know soon. I can't make more than one of these this April and I'd like it to be one that gets the country's attention.
