Something else that has never happened before in American history, as the Trump admin continues to piss on the Bill of Rights while Republicans in Congress continue to remain silent. Another thing to protest on Saturday.

We can't afford to extend the ACA health insurance credits.

We can't afford to give weapons to Ukraine.

However, we CAN afford to donate $40 Billion to bail out Trump's pal in Argentina🤷‍♀️

I bet you will see lots of people who were life-long Republicans who are now Never-Trump conservatives at the No Kings rally.

I think some Americans simply are stunned and don't know what to do. They are waiting for someone to tell them what to do.

Some are ignoring it and hoping it will miraculously get better.

However, many Americans don't even know it is happening because they live in a Fox News/NewsMax bubble.

In a recent NY Times focus group of Trump voters, only one person raised her hand when asked if Vance would be a good next leader of the GOP LOL

Unless and until some kind of compelling legal and moral argument is presented as to why this is a legitimate use of deadly force, this is just…mass murder.

Great minds think alike, I was looking at the unicorn costume because it is 2 day shipping.

I have a few questions: does it come in different sizes? I am a short woman, does it fit a a petite size?
And how does the costume inflate? I need to drive to the protest. Can I inflate it at the protest?

I am searching Amazon for inflatable costumes that will be delivered before Saturday.

The frog inflatable costume isn't available for 2 day shipping. So I assume there will be thousands of inflatable frogs at protests nationwide on Oct 18.

Trump learned his lesson from his first term. Nowadays, every deal has a grift opportunity for his kids.
