Goodbye to every iteration of Italian red sauce, then. 😏

This video from Portland is a metaphor for what is going on in America. ICE trying so hard to get Americans to cross a line and if they don't, dragging them across the line and violently attacking.

I'm not sure you can get more marie antoinette than taking away food stamps before thanksgiving while you build a gold and marble dance hall so the other crooks can bring bribe you over a badly-cooked (argentinian) steak

shocked to learn that the president lied about this and also this is a horrible defacing of a building that belongs to the people of the United States, not donald trump

Pedro Pascal at an outdoor protest holds a bright red and yellow sign that reads “NO KINGS ONLY QUEENS” with a black-and-white photo of Divine and Trump. Pascalis wearing glasses and a yellow T-shirt, pursing their lips playfully while pointing at the sign. They stand among a crowd of people holding various protest signs; the scene appears to be in a city street on a sunny day.

Pedro Pascal was spotted at the LA No Kings protest with the best sign there.

Kansas City. No Kings.

New reporting reveals over 7,000,000 Americans participated in today’s No Kings Day rally.

Something maybe worth noting is that all the frog costumes and signs and good-natured memeing came about because a wide spectrum of Americans saw someone in direct, brave confrontation with ICE—getting pepperballed and standing their ground—and thought “that’s awesome. That person is a hero”

This is probably wrong of me but I genuinely don’t think I’d know when those No Kings protests are if not for Republican Senators getting on tv and being like “Skeletor will be there, everyone who is there will get an abortion, the ceremony will raise the dread visions of Nyarlathotep”
