I spy savvy protestors with some marching band experience 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🇺🇸
WOW! Protesters created a HUGE human sign on San Francisco’s Ocean Beach reading “No Kings YES on 50” to support California’s Prop 50 and stand up against Donald Trump’s fascist regime

It's just nice to think about someone as pathetically egotistical and vain as Trump having to see 7 million people turn out in the streets specifically to tell him he's a piece of shit.
Kneeling to fascists will fail every single time.
CEO Paula Kerger also pushed back on the idea that PBS would begin altering content to appease the White House: "They’ve already taken away our funding."

No one was killed or arrested at today's No Kings rally against Trump in New York City.

At this MUCH smaller rally *for* Trump, at least 3 people were arrested (charged with burning an object with intent to intimidate), >30 people injured, and a woman was intentionally run over by a car and killed.
Oddly, T. rex actually is king in Latin.

"Let them eat cake."

Yes, I know she never said this, but it's appropriate.
Some folks aren't getting SNAP benefits next month from what I hear because of the government shutdown. Here she is getting 2 jets at our expense.
The Trump administration just ordered two Gulfstream luxury private jets for Kristi Noem at a cost of over $172 million.

This comes as Americans can barely afford groceries.
Only fascists are against anti-fascism.
“The government alleges the two were part of an ‘antifa cell,’ while defining ‘antifa’ — commonly understood as a decentralized movement of people opposed to fascism — as an ‘enterprise made up of networks and small groups ascribing to a revolutionary anarchism or autonomous Marxist ideology.’”
New from me: A former DOJ counterterrorism lawyer is flagging the ”enterprise” language in the government’s new “antifa cell” prosecution for troubling signs of an FBI “dragnet” www.rawstory.com/raw-investig...
I was told they were all terrorists and violent thugs.

Huh...
So no terrorism then?
She does not care that they are Nazis because republicans have no problem hiring Nazis because they hold those beliefs.
Whereas many humans use their values as a compass, opportunistic Elise Stefanik uses hers as a weathervane.

My favorite exchange from my hometown #NOkings rally today:

A lady driving by yelled JESUS IS COMING YA'LL! at us

I shouted back TELL HIM TO HURRY UP

And the lovely hair done Fully made up southern lady in front of me yelled
HONEY, DON'T YOU DEPORT HIM!

It was beautiful.
I never thought in my wildest dreams as a kid that this would be the future. I thought it would be robots and space travel and nuclear powered everything.

I’ve seen just one counter-protester at No Kings San Diego. He’s got a Trump 2024 flag and this guy has been following him around for probably an hour playing Benny Hill and circus music.

the idea of antifa paying protesters is so funny. if i wanted to get paid to destroy the government i’d run for congress
Of course not because it's now a Trump owned propaganda mill run by a propagandist.
You're not gonna believe this but @cbsnews.com appears to not have a story about some of the largest mass protests in American history anywhere on its main page.

Whoever came up with the idea of mocking this gratuitously cruel regime with cute, nonthreatening plastic frogs really hit a gold mine. The clever imagery has made it all the way across the Atlantic.
We don't hate America. We hate fascist liars like Mike Johnson.
Wow, lots of American flags and peace . Sure doesn’t seem like people who hate America you absolute embarrassment Speaker Johnson
