Retired not tired. Thinks America has always been great and constantly improving (although not at a constant rate).

Who belives what he says? If this were true, he would voluntarily release IRS returns and prove it. (Of course, a true rendition of his income would verify the violations of the Emoluments clause). #TrumpGrift
Welp, there is an open border with New Jersey, only somewhat of a language barrier. This is the most incurious humanlike troll to ever hold national office. I’m sure a dog or bear was elected to a local office somewhere, but easy to see they would be nonserious.
Q: Zohran Mamdani said he'd close Rikers Island.
Trump: "That's not good, I guess it's not a very nice place, but you need it, you have a lot of additional people in New York City that should not have been here, they came in through the open border." (The open border of New York City. He said that.)
While the White House demolition is shocking and deeply disturbing, it pales next to the extralegal executions on the high seas and perhaps territorial waters. Murder in peacetime, and no attempt to hide it. Unbelievable!
Slim just revved another fan.

Senator Jeff Merkley just crossed 20 hours in his marathon floor speech on authoritarianism. He began speaking at 6:20pm yesterday.
Well, I was thinking Homan until I saw the ladder. #louvreheist
Absolutely wild that Kansas has a senator who ignores, fails to represent, and insults his constituents by rote quoting GOP talking points. He stays in office as our state has an independent media desert Our main newsprint, tv and radio outlets have been consolidated and sold to conglomerates.

Did you tear-up today when you were out protesting because you felt the camaraderie and fellowship with so many like-minded and caring people?

I did.

Did you tear-up today when you were protesting because you're still processing the fact that we're rapidly tumbling toward authoritarianism?

I did.

This photo made me cry.

I have 4 kids. I think about this all the time:

What about our children’s futures?

Don’t let these protests be in vain.

Stay strong.

Stay unified.

Grow our presence.

Fight

Back.

I spent the first two decades of my adult life traveling through the United States. It always made me angry when people would snear at small cities in red states. It's been hard to defend them lately, but images like this restore my faith in the little blue dots in the sea of red.

Topeka Kansas loves America!!!
It’s simply excercising first amendment rights. There’s no need to register, no need to have any agenda other than opposition to any tactics of governance you don’t agree with. No goals other than a loose statement that we won’t stand silent while the country slips into autocracy.
My opinion only, the sum of all rallies is the point. Many rallies are as important as large rallies. Go, meet and make or support friends in your community. It gives you hope and direction to participate in one of the key freedoms afforded all citizens of our great nation. Would be great to see you

Not reposting the nonsense from the right about how Saturday's march is ANTI-AMERICAN! SOROS-FUNDED!

What they're saying is so nonsensical that it reeks of desperation.

They're scared of a simple display of mass opposition.

Bring your American flags, folks.
It's a pro-America, pro-democracy march
For the record, there are 380 Kansans that registered as Oathkeepers. There are several underground militias here as well. Roger Marshall’s speech goes right to their reasoning.
Ok, attending my 4th NoKings/50501 ralley Saturday. Heard my state senator bloviating and made the second contact in all my many years. No matter your stance on issues, now is the time to put that on record IMHO. Go for it
If Homan did not accept the money, show the video. If he did accept the money, explain how that’s not a bribe. Simple! We’re listening. #HomanBribeVideo?
Other option, flood the area with so many phones a human followup would be problematic. We are the majority, that’s the point of the excercise. More important to tell elected not to call it “hate speech” and chum the waters for violence with ridiculous unfounded claims. #RogerMarshallShouldRetract
🚨 This is happening everywhere you go depending on where you live and your social media presence. Just assume nothing you say, text, look up, or read on your phone is private. Don’t take your phone to a protest without a faraday bag. Use a dumb device to record video. 1/2
