Mike Johnson is enabling a hostile takeover of the US govt by a criminal enterprise of white supremacists, Christian nationalists, and techno-fascist billionaires who aim to replace democracy with a dictatorship led by Epstein’s closest coconspirator.

For the love of America, we must protest this.

No Kings

As the president escalates his authoritarian power grab, the NO KINGS non-violent movement continues to rise stronger. We are united once again to remind the world: America has No Kings and the power ...

“They” may bring violence to our peaceful protest. They’ve done it for years. Anyone who has peacefully protested has seen them. So, be mindful, be aware, be kind. Oh and do not engage our military.

One of the things people will be protesting this Saturday at No Kings is Scott Bessent sending $40 billion of our money to Argentina while Trump plays golf and Congress says nothing.

That isn’t “hating America.”

Republicans want bailouts for oligarchs.

Bessent’s friends have huge investments in Argentina.

Elon Musk does too.

Bessent is sending $40 billion of our money to Argentina with more to come.

There is zero oversight. Congress not involved.

One unelected man is sending a fortune to Argentina and nobody will stop him,
