I can just envision him, grading his own paper 😂

That color makes your eyes shine! Yay for you.

What isn't acceptable, is he bypassed Congress for the money because he thinks all the various pots of money are for him to do with what he wants.

I don't know about you, but my sign is going to say I love America but hate fascism. #nokingsprotest

Today would be a great day to call your democratic senators (2) and rep in Congress (1) to encourage them to stand strong during the shutdown so we don't lose healthcare subsidies. 202.224.3121 connects you to any and all. You don't even need to know their names.

My Target parking lot is a shortcut for me getting home and I used to avoid the clusterF of cars, but now it is easy to zip through!

Local doesn't reduce the footprint so much as you'd think, but glad you try and eat more plant based! 🥰 A world of food opened up for me when I looked outside the American dinner plate of meat + 2 sides.

Oh, so now they are shooting priests at peaceful protests with pepper balls in Chicago. 😡 #ourstreets

Would you cut your carbon footprint in half if it was easy and delicious? Let #meatlessmonday inspire you to eat more plant based meals overall. In times when we feel helpless, action is the antidote to despair.

What a powerful photo in the most Portland of ways. 😂

@nike is supplying new masks to ICE agents. Anyone going to buy Nike now or are we going to keep claiming our power with our dollars until they understand who is actually in charge here? #fuckice

For anyone posting #RIPJaneGoodall, ask yourself what would Jane eat?, and do that.

Today would be a great day to call your reps in Congress (you have 2 senators and 1 rep) and tell them to stand strong, don't cave! 202.224.3121 is the congressional switchboard. You don't even need to know their name. Now, get on it!

Can anyone in Portland tell me what hotel chain is putting up the traitors invading that city? We need to boycott any and all hotel chains involved in housing ICE and Natl Guard.

Some nice posters on my morning walk. Going to head over to the Black Panther anti fascist trainings.

Promises, promises. When is some big truth going to be released?

My name is Captain Dylan Blaha, and I’m an antifascist. I’ve served for nearly 13 years, including a tour in Afghanistan and three years in Germany.

Yesterday, Trump designated "Antifa" as a terrorist organization. Apparently it's now terrorism in America to be against fascism.

I am a US Army veteran and antifascist
