A shame that we have a congress unwilling to acknowledge the Constitution & a politicized DOJ. Slashing so many essential services needs in this country at his whim. We live in bizarroworld. How we need an MLK and RFK SR to relentlessly mobilize the army, not w/MSNBC soundbites, but in the trenches.

I've worked very hard to forget him.

I truly is...and fairly certain it's illegal but since congress is closed indefinitely, we'll never know.

Are you participating in a nokings.org rally on Saturday, 10/18? Here are some helpful tips to get your messages across in safe, peaceful, and joyous ways.

NO KINGS
Top 10 Rally Reminders
Lead with Love, Not Anger.
Focus your energy on what you stand for, not what you stand against. Anger fades;
compassion lasts.
Look Out for One Another.
Offer water, a smile, or friendly chat to someone nearby. Check on families, elders, and people with mobility needs.
Smile and Greet Others.
Say hello, wave, or share a word of encouragement. Small acts of friendliness build community trust and lower tension.
Celebrate Families and Kids.
Keep the atmosphere family-friendly, and invite children to join in with chants and songs-joyful ways to express civic pride.
Lift Your Voice with Positivity.
Joy is contagious. The more you smile, sing, and stay grounded, the safer and stronger everyone around you feels.
Keep It Clean and Respectful.
Leave our rally space as beautiful as you found it-or better. Treat it with respect, care, and gratitude for peace.
Make Your Sign Speak Peace.
Choose messages that uplift-creative, clever, values-based signs draw attention without aggression or profanity.
Be Mindful of Words & Tone.
Speak with kindness, even when disagreeing. Avoid insults, sarcasm, or chants that demean others.
Model Nonviolence in Every Action.
If confronted, breathe, stay calm, and step back. Do not engage or argue, alert a Guardian in an orange vest.
Carry Joy Beyond the Rally.
After the event, share stories, photos, and reflections that highlight unity and courage-show the world what peaceful power looks like.

Thank you for including me in this pack acknowledging the pain that is pregnancy loss & infant loss. It is sometimes not acknowledged enough but when it impacts ur life or one of someone u love, awareness is everything. My heart will be holding u tonight at 7pm creating that light of remembrance.

$20 Billion to bail out Argentina while millions of American's health care premiums r skyrocketing to unaffordable while slashing Medicaid. Gutting the ACA and programs for kids w/special needs & other issues requiring IEPs, farmers losing money from tariffs- no offense to Argentina but THIS IS BS.

Mark Hamill @markhamillofficial.bsky.social · 2h

He gives $20 Billion of OUR dollars to bailout Argentina without consulting Congress or the American people. Does that seem like the actions of a KING to you?

Join us & let him know just what you think about that this Saturday, 10/18

Just like McConnell did w/Garland and SCOTUS ( where he belonged not a DOJ)...and then rushed Coney Barrett thru. When the Dems retake the house (which they will despite gerrymandering), they MUST pass parliamentary rules that have time constraints for appointments/swearing it, etc...This must stop.

Great song...but so many of her tunes are bangers, for me it'd be like choosing a favorite child. Must be hard to find a female singer to match her chops! 💙🌸☮️
