This Saturday, these countries will join us in solidarity, & hold their own No Kings rallies to support us. These countries are our allies, & our friends. They are standing up for us. Doesn't it feel great to have so many countries united together with us? We owe them a huge thank you.☺️

POLITICO: “.. They referred to Black people as monkeys and ‘the watermelon people’ and mused about putting their political opponents in gas chambers. They talked about raping their enemies .. and lauded Republicans who they believed support slavery.

Everyone should watch Thomas Massie question Kash Patel about others tied to the Epstein trafficking case. Massie dug in with honesty and conviction—his polite yet pointed questioning was a masterclass in what real congressional oversight should look like. #Massie #Courage #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles

The concentration of wealth in the hands of a few isn't just bad for our economy. It's corrosive to our democracy.

When the wealthy and well-connected control our political system, regular people don't have a voice.

The result? The demagoguery and corruption we're seeing now.
