Artist, dog-lover, and avid reader. (I had help with this.) Terminally out of the loop. Ramblings of an old, woke woman. ⚛️💙🇺🇸🇺🇦

🚨PSA🚨

If my posts start to get loopy and loopier throughout the day, know that I'm 78 years old; I'm up and making my first cup of coffee at 5:00 a.m. and I'm sundowning by 1:00 p.m.
Thank you for your understanding.

It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than to find a story about No Kings on the NYT homepage

(Only a photo essay in “Most Shared,” since people really want to know about it despite what the editors think)

We went to No Kings looking for paid protestors. What we found will shock you.

It is a scandal totally unprecedented in history that the Vice President has shared a video depicting the President as king. It’s an obscene violation of every founding American principle.

And nothing will come of it. It makes me physically sick.

State Sen. Sam Douglass (R-VT), who was involved in the hate-filled Young Republican group chat uncovered by POLITICO, announced his resignation yesterday.
That's a good start.👍

I joined the "human banner" at San Francisco's Ocean Beach. This flag was at the center. It was a gorgeous day with enormous waves. #nokings

The image is taken from an angle, and you can see the ocean tilting 30 degrees in the distance, with a huge crowd in front of it. In the foreground, you can see the giant American flag that is being held up by hundreds of protesters clustered around its edges.

This is the human banner from the air. It's sign made from masses of people standing together to form letters. It reads "No Kings Yes on 50." There is an American flag in the middle and a thick border around the banner. (Prop 50 is a California state proposition to gerrymander the state to create more blue districts, in order to combat the Texas law that gerrymanders their state to create more red districts.)

Thousands of people have gathered in downtown Denver for today’s No Kings protest against the Trump administration. Similar smaller protests are being held across Colorado. #copolitics

Hark, Speaker Mike Johnson! Looking at all the many, many pics of the enormous, joyous “No Kings” rallies throughout the United States today, I am struck by what lovely weather your Lord and Savior provided. Apparently, God is a fan of, as you claimed, "America-hating Antifa terrorists." Glory!

Those men are super dangerous drug smuggling terrorists, which is why . . . we are letting them go.
