I heard the costumes were sold out. So many people are buying them for No Kings.

The ICE tactic is to cull the herd. Don't let ICE invade the space enough to separate people out.

Invite the farmers! Invite those affected by the floods. Dems need to show up and stand with those in the protests!

The framework, the unification, the uniformed/militarized force we are seeing organized against us now is based off Nazi framework.

I'm Black. We know who our enemies are, Neo-Nazi, regular Nazi, or otherwise. White supremacy is an ideology. Nazis worked off the same ideology as slave owners. The Dutch also have a hand in systemic racism. But Nazis organized it and put a uniform on it. They gave it a name.

We have young Republicans happily praising Hitler. They are all Nazis to me. Nazis were white supremacists, that's the root of the ideology.

If we learned anything from Portland, carry flowers and vigil candles. Hard to paint people as violent when they are passing out flowers, offering hugs, having group prayer, or dressed up in costumes dancing.

I usually run to Reddit. Someone has felt all the feel I feel and asked people about it. I just read and comment and stay in the shadows.

I found out the original plan was to base Isrealis in Egypt. Israel is a new construct. It was only established in the 1930-40s.

OMG I love her. 🙌🏾

Notice, how all they did was "threaten," but didn't do shit.

She was not having it, and they knew it too.

Several Dems opted to not get paid during the shutdown as a show of solidarity.

Okay fine. You could have found this if you had googled the first five words of the headline like I did. It was my congressman who gaveled the session closed when the military pay bill was attempted but rejected.

It's a helpful idea.

I hope this was really reported by Fox News.

People need to sue. Theo Vaughn's image was used but he's MAGA so he asked them to take it down. I hope people sue.

Our firefighters put their lives on the line every day to keep us safe.

It’s unacceptable that firefighters who pass away or are permanently disabled by work-related cancer don’t receive the same treatment as others who die in the line of duty.

We’re working to fix that.

Dems floated a narrow bill to fund the military, which can’t move because the House isn’t in session. Meanwhile, DoD is now going to spend funds not appropriated by Congress to ensure military paychecks continue.

POTUS now both commands and provisions the military. Unconstitutional and SO dangerous

The Office of Management and Budget sent a notification to Congress about their intent to use research and development funds to pay members of the military, two sources with direct knowledge tell NBC News.
A spokesperson for the OMB confirmed to NBC
News that it plans to use the research and development funds and that there are two years' worth of funds available within the Department of Defense.
