Forced to retire (disability), I'm a former farmer, carpentry contractor, teacher, and software QA guy. I want what's best for everyone, from a humanitarian perspective.

You can thank me by making sure to vote against anybody who supports the idea of American royalty. We're going to take this country back and start the rebuild process by electing representatives that represent all of US!

The No Kings rally drew around 1k people in deeply red Alexandria, MN (pop 15k). Lots of US flags while, on the street, an older pickup with a large Trump flag trolled past numerous times, illustrating the stark difference: One side loves this nation and her people. The other side loves Trump.

Thank you, Mr. Butt, for understanding the current American situation. Here's hoping that soon we can go back to assuming that everyone from each other's country is a friend.

Here's a true-blue Canadian with maple syrup running through his veins who understands the No Kings movement.

PROTESTORS: We don't want an autocratic, all-powerful ruler, we want our leaders to work within the constitution, obey the rule of law, and realize they are employed to serve the people.

TRUMP REGIME: That's Anti-American!!!

If they won't let you out of the ward to accept your Word Aword at the Word Awards Ceremony, that would be weird.

They can't help themselves, they have to lie. It's in their DNA.

Being a top state for children makes us a top state for anyone who values children. Even people who don't have children, such as myself, recognize the broad and critical value of children, and are proud of Minnesota's commitment to and investment in them. Bravo, Minnesota!

Talk about drain bamage - he's confusing Hunter Biden and his own son.

I think you meant, "I accept the aword."

No bad news was reported. Ergo, there is no bad news, duh.

There is nobody who makes things cheaper than Trump. More inexpensive is a whole other conversation.

My nephew wrote, arranged, performed and recorded an Antifa anthem just in time for No Kings (Love America) day. Listen to it here, follow the lyrics in the description.

Institutionalized misogyny is a powerful drug.

This is what happen when a country abandons facts and logic, instead making decisions and policy based on beliefs and feelings.

Remember the first few months of this year, when all we talked about was DOGE and spending cuts and waste, and this administration gutted USAID?

And now they’re giving $40 billion (!) to Argentina.

Insane the amount of amnesia in this country and in our politics and media.

Hmm - under 'political assassinations' they mentioned Kirk and United Healthcare's Brian Thompson, as well as attempts on Trump and Kavenaugh, but somehow forgot the deaths of MN State Sen. Melissa Hortman and her husband, or the serious wounding of Sen. John Hoffman and his wife. That's odd.

I'm from Minnesota, and I fully agree! It's not Canada's "fault," it's Canada's choice, a choice that was forced on them by Trump's talk of annexation, followed by his insane tariffs (which he somehow thought would be unilateral in action). Carry on, Canada. You'll get no blame from me.

Trust me, I can do exactly what I already forgot you just said.

I'm a Vikes fan, but with some of the Browns passes that got dropped yesterday, I'd be looking at some of those guys for point shaving. I mean, come on!

It can be, but "trucker hat and flannel" is certainly neither its definition nor its indicator.
