Can’t afford healthcare? Tough luck. But don’t worry, Kristi Noem’s getting two brand-new Gulfstream jets for $172 million on your dime. Because apparently “fiscal responsibility” only applies to the rest of us.

And yet another American product that's going down the tubes. I get the strange feeling that the rest of the World thinks that some Americans are dead set cunts and should never be let out of the country. I wonder where they got THAT idea from?

ZERO arrests at No Kings in NYC. (And the NYPD isn’t notorious for being sympathetic with people anti-Trump.)

This proves what shameless liars Speaker Mike Johnson & Karoline Leavitt are to slander the participants as violent anarchists.

The thing about No Kings the GOP doesn't seem to get isn't that we hate you as much as it is that we recognize you for what you are.

You're a threat. You're a threat to our lives, our livelihoods, our families, our friends.

We WILL drive you out of power. You haven't given us any other choice.

No Kings is reporting that 7,000,000 Americans turned out to rally against Trump today.

That's over THREE TIMES the number of votes Donald Trump claims to have gotten over Kamala Harris.

As someone who cares a lot about political communication, I'm floored by how good the messaging of No Kings is.

It gave millions of people with diverse interests a single, simple, noncontroversial position to rally around...and a foundation to empower creative expression. Just astonishingly good.

No Kings protest in The Woodlands, Texas (north suburban Houston). This is the first such protest to occur in the community. I overheard a number of folks telling others that they had never attended such an event before but had gotten to the point of feeling they needed to do something.
