Protestors believe that action has meaning. Protestors are exercising the rights enshrined in the Constitution. For me, protest is about love of country. I will be there on October 18th, and I hope you will be too.

This week, instead of "goodbye" when ending a conversation, "No Kings"

Let 'em know you are going and that you'd like them there too

He has no shame. And he seems too resigned for fear. What is it about Epstein that scares him so much? It seems to be the only thing at this point where there's true leverage on him.

Seems it shows his consciousness of thought that he is running ICE. (Because he is)

Yep, Trump’s a dupe at this point.
JD, Yarvin, Thiel sharpening the knives. But what to do about Miller? And OMB monster has his own Christian Nationalist project. Then there’s the MAHA loon. Oh, and I forgot about Musk. But GOP have all decided Cruz gets it and just want a podcast or other grift.

Eisenhower, Dirksen, Howard Baker, Margaret Chase Smith, and even Goldwater in 1974 all stood up to corruption or extremism at key moments. John Thune has not.

We need to *shame* the GOP into action, because courage is never arriving.

Reno action group's photo is of a bridge in Reno over I-80 with "Reno NV Fights Fascism" sign. Heather Cox Richardson is a big fan of this as a way to spread messages.

Who would've guessed that Pat Summerall's kid would be so good at flooding the zone with shit. Daily. And into the night.

We need to stop reacting & write or own story

Our story is better

They've convinced Trump this somehow enriches him (and it may).

He only does things that enrich him, persecute his enemies or somehow get him into heaven.

Best of luck on that last one, President Pedo

This video described me and I imagine many others here. Sometimes it’s reassuring just to hear someone describe what you are experiencing so perfectly. We are in this together.

This morning, the Trump Administration’s Department of War gave me an ultimatum: call up your troops, or we will. It is absolutely outrageous and un-American to demand a Governor send military troops within our own borders and against our will.

Oh, and JDV. Won't work on that fornicoucher.

Or Cruz, Rubio or Hawley. Lost causes.

But some rep from IN, MO, SD, NE, etc who *already* can't look their 13 yr old daughter in the eye? How's that feel 20 years from now? 30?
