Why did Trump not rename the "department of defence" to "department of Peace" rather than "department of war". It may have been a trump card for the Nobel 😂

Actually "department of peace" is not authoritarian enough.

“Go to a No Kings rally. What do you see? You see moms and grandmas and kids and dogs and funny signs and dancing and happy displays of opposition to the regime that are foundationally nonviolent. And on the other end, you’ve got a regime that’s led by a guy who cheered the January 6th insurrection”

Regarding past rallies Indivisible has organized, such as the “Hands Off” rallies that took place in all fifty states in April, co-executive director Ezra Levin said: “It was far larger than January 6th, and there was no violence. None.” www.thebulwark.com/p/no-kings-r...

Sanders: Saturday, millions of people are going to come out on a No Kings day. Speaker Johnson said this is a hate America rally because people are coming out expressing their concerns.. It’s not a hate America rally, it's a love America rally.

Q: This has been reported for a while. Cory Mills was accused of beating a girlfriend in his DC apt. Are you concerned about these allegations?

JOHNSON: You have to ask Rep. Mills about that. He's been a faithful colleague. I don't know the details. Let's talk about things that are really serious

There's talk that people are getting worried about showing up for #NoKingsRally on Sat Oct 18. They are afraid of 🍊💩 saying bad stuff about us. All the more reason YOU need to show up! They want us afraid, they want us quiet! We can not give in. There are more of us, and we are STRONGER TOGETHER!
