Exactly!

Need to have media coverage showing a sea of American flags to blow away the Republican clowns' media narrative

Btw - They're obviously scared shitless that they might be about to see the largest peaceful nationwide protest in American history

Let's show them one!

Americans, you deserve so much better than this.

Let’s make sure Saturday is just the beginning.

We will overwhelm this regime with dignity and a fierce, non-violent “NO!”

The American people deserve a public health system that puts science before politics.

That's why California and 14 other governors are joining forces to launch the Governors Public Health Alliance to protect communities and guarantee decisions are rooted in data and health.

Q: Cory Mills was accused of abusing his girlfriend and Stolen Valor? Are you concerned about that?

Some good news: @governor.ca.gov signed a bill to raise wages for the incarcerated firefighters who saved LA this winter.

But this isn't just a CA issue—at least 13 states employ incarcerated firefighters. Let's pass my bill, the FIRE Act, to ensure fair labor standards nationwide!

Isaac G. Bryan @ib2real.bsky.social · 2d

Governor Newsom just signed my bill to increase incarcerated firefighter pay 700% to the federal minimum wage.

Anyone who puts their life on the line to protect others is a hero and deserves both our gratitude and to be compensated justly.

And now, they believe they have found the pathway they need to install Trump as president in 2028: capture state Supreme Courts ahead of the 2028 presidential election.

My name is Thelma and I'm old as hell. My story is as #American as you get and I can't believe what is happening to my country. I am going to the #NoKings march Saturday for the same reason those fellas in Boston dumped tea in the harbor. This one is important, love you all.

Now we are up to $40 billion for Argentina. Can anyone stop Bessent from unilaterally sending unlimited amounts of our money to South America? And Republicans won’t even negotiate with the Democrats on health care for Americans. Where is Congress?

Republican officials have spent years psy-oping themselves into thinking that there are no sincere, good faith liberals or progressives anywhere in America. So no wonder they're totally unequipped to deal with a large crowd of normal people waving American flags.

COLLINS: The Dept of Energy just canceled $1b for a hydrogen hub that covers Montana. Is that taking away good-paying jobs?

SHEEHY: Of course it is. We want govt to be open

C: But the Energy Secretary says he would've pulled that funding even if govt was open

S: ... Well, that's unfortunate

Topics Mike Johnson thinks are serious:

- Super Bowl halftime entertainer
- getting a Nobel Prize for Trump
- terrifying naked bike riders

Topics he thinks are not serious:

- Epstein Files
- domestic violence
- being able to keep the govt open
- the neutering of Congress

Aaron Rupar @atrupar.com · 17h

Q: This has been reported for a while. Cory Mills was accused of beating a girlfriend in his DC apt. Are you concerned about these allegations?

JOHNSON: You have to ask Rep. Mills about that. He's been a faithful colleague. I don't know the details. Let's talk about things that are really serious
