The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion, after getting $1.2 trillion richer over the past year alone.
Meanwhile, the rest of the country is getting squeezed by tariffs and high prices for groceries, utilities, and health care.
The system is broken.
This "No Kings" song from Jesse Welles is giving me Dylanesque vibes and flashbacks to earlier eras of protests for peace and civil rights and women's rights. Those led to big things. This is starting to feel big, too. www.youtube.com/watch?v=JXWD...

Based on what I saw tonight at No Kings in this R+20 district in East Texas, state liberals are pro Palestine, big on AOC, want fighters, want the Heritage Foundation to die, and want to abolish ICE

Pensacola is famous for the Blue Angels and for clinic bombings.
Today's No Kings crowd looked to me like 2500-5000 attendees. In Pensacola. Matt Gaetz country.
Wowβnearly 7 million people participated in No Kings:

Larry Hanson, 78, said it was the largest protest he had ever seen in San Francisco: βIβve been on a lot of marches. But this was the most amazing one.β

So when the White House says horrible things to make you hate your neighbor, the White House IS THE PROBLEM.
Blech, yeah. Sorry your march got hit with that; mine was pretty free of it, thankfully.

Deep love of country was palpable.
Talked with a retired Navy officer. By no means a progressive, he was utterly disgusted with what Trump has done.
Truth is going to prevail.
No Kings in Lexington, KY with my mom. Two former Republicans who once believed the lie that the GOP is the Christian party. Indoctrination is a helluva drug but so glad we woke up. Now we stand against Christian nationalism & MAGA because it's the opposite of Jesus' teachings.

Genuinely huge No Kings crowd in Columbus at the Ohio Statehouse, comparable in size to the Black Lives Matter protests here in the summer of 2020 - maybe even larger, though definitely less diverse. And this while a Buckeyes football game is on, even.
