If your government says there's too many autistic kids, then eliminates the entire special education department, they don't care about autism, or kids, or education.

NO, SPEAKER JOHNSON:
THE NO KINGS RALLY ON OCTOBER 18
IS NOT A "HATE AMERICA" RALLY.
QUITE THE CONTRARY.
IT'S A RALLY OF MILLIONS OF PEOPLE WHO BELIEVE IN AMERICAN FREEDOM AND ARE NOT GOING TO ALLOW YOU AND PRESIDENT TRUMP TO TURN US INTO AN AUTHORITARIAN COUNTRY.
Bernie Sanders

"BE AWARE - Especially at No Kings
Undercover ICE, far right influencers, and agitators have been spotted at other protests.
Mike Johnson has already started the narrative that the No Kings protest is a "terrorist" event.
They WILL be trying to provoke violence. Whatever you do, do NOT take the bait. Do not let others take the bait.
Stay peaceful, stay on message.
If you are interviewed, repeat the most unifying talking points.
Do NOT lean into "antifa" labels. It is not a real organization. Don't let their lies become real. Don't let it become a label. Stick to saying the whole thing: We are against fascism and violations of the constitution."
-Mandolin Roark, 5051 Movement

If lies were bleeped out every time he told one, we'd never have to hear his grating voice ever again.
