Was Mike Johnson and House Republican leadership trying to double participation in No Kings on Saturday or did they just stumble and bumble their way into doing that?

A woman gets duly elected by the people and the government refuses to allow her to do her job.

What the hell is going on in the US? What a shit government system you have there. It's an incredible mess.

He gives $20 Billion of OUR dollars to bailout Argentina without consulting Congress or the American people. Does that seem like the actions of a KING to you?

Join us & let him know just what you think about that this Saturday, 10/18

Just start arresting ICE officers. Arrest them on the way they look, the way they speak, and where they are at. Arrest them without a warrant or probable cause and let the matter wind it's way, very slowly, through the courts.

Two can play that game.
Fight fire with fire.

Let’s be clear: when ICE tackles people in Home Depot parking lots, it’s not just federal abuse—it’s corporate liability. Property owners owe a duty of care. If you let armed agents assault customers, you’re complicit. #AhujaCongress2026 #CA32 #AbolishICE

FINALLY: Rep-Elect Adelita Grijalva's election results are OFFICIALLY certified TODAY – Mike Johnson's last excuse to delay seating her is gone. 💪 "He needs to do his job so l can do mine." Hell yeah he does. Media needs to push Mike. NOW.

The Speaker of the House thinks a naked bike ride is terrorism.

This is a sentence I never thought I’d write when I got a degree in professional writing for journalism.

Los Angeles has just declared a state of emergency.

Not because of wildfires. Not because of riots. But because of an invasion by federal government troops.

We can see where this is going.

Los Angeles County declares state of emergency over immigration raids

Los Angeles County officials voted on Tuesday to declare a state of emergency over ongoing federal immigration raids.
