You know, I think the useful (evil) idiots inside the US junta are so isolated that, sure, they don't care about the protests, but also, they don't get that their time is just about over.

So, granted I'm on Paris time and maybe the New York Times will change its front page before you all wake up (nah), but I'm once again deeply disappointed that their lead story today is about stupid George Santos rather than the HUGE global outpouring of peaceful resistance to the US fascist coup.

I'll be joining our No Kings Day in Paris -- at the Bastille, appropriately. Please know that our hearts are bleeding along with yours, and we think of you daily. (Photo from No Kings Day in June, Paris.) March on! March on!

You know our own Tiananmen Square is coming. You know that. Trump's purge of the military leadership -- his declaration that 'he' is federal law -- and all the rest -- it's coming. Someone is gonna be willing to shoot Americans in the legs.
