Sharp eyes were not even necessary.
Hey Hudson, guess what? I went to a No Kings march and watched college football! Does that make me an extra special boy?
Times headline writers continue to be an abomination, even when articles themselves are strong.

Not commenting on this one article as I canceled my subscription a year ago.

Holy shit this is good.

“There’s no way I’m bending the only knee I have left for a king here in America.”
Retired Army Sgt. Brian Wofford spoke to me this morning at the Oklahoma City #NoKings protest. Didn’t expect him to be carrying his DD214 so I asked some warmup questions like when he got out and whether his injury was service-related.

He paused while describing the car bomb in Iraq to say this:
Listen, he's been full of shit his entire life, so actually surprised there wasn't more.

What a role model! Every Republican in office should be asked about this!
Bigger than his inauguration crowds! Thank you for your attention to this matter!
Trump can't read, but what's the excuse of the six justices?

Trump says that, with his illegal mass layoffs, he’s closing “Democrat programs.” But programs like Social Security, education for children with disabilities, & clean water enforcement work for all Americans. If you want to repeal them, send a bill to Congress; if not, hands off.

“Trump is trying to destroy the rule of law, trying to destroy our democracy, trying to stop you from being able to speak freely. But he can’t win if we mobilize.”

Sen. @chrismurphyct.bsky.social wants you to join your local peaceful protest on Saturday: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i... #NoKings
Enough fabric on those suits to make sails for a large schooner.
If you are near an event, please attend. If you are not near an event, please attend. If you cannot attend an event, please tell your friends and family to attend. Stay safe, stay non-violent, but be loud and proud. Those protesting authoritarianism have the greatest claim to being real Americans.

On October 18th, millions of brave Americans will stand up and peacefully protest against the authoritarian disease metastasizing under Donald Trump.

No Kings Day is almost here.

The Trump regime believes that if it can overwhelm us with atrocities and threats, we'll surrender our rights without fighting for them.

But the people won’t bow down. We will rise. Join us at a peaceful protest on Saturday: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i... #NoKings

“No, Speaker Johnson — the No Kings rally on October 18 is not a hate America rally. In fact, it’s quite the contrary: It’s a love America rally.” #NoKings

The replies on the editorial include many versions of “thanks for finally convincing me to cancel.”
You’ve gotta be kidding me.

This WaPo editorial presents a misleading revisionist history of Special Counsel Jack Smith’s criminal cases against Trump.

Then it has the gall to compare that to Trump’s overt targeting of his perceived enemies.

Really embarrassing stuff.
Murphy's Dem colleagues who point to running on defending democracy as a losing strategy are utter morons. Though not enough voters took the risk to democracy seriously in 2024, how can they not see the difference now that we are almost 9 months into this administration's blatant authoritarianism?
