The resemblance is undeniable

Democrats tried to pass stand alone bill to fund SNAP & WIC today

Republicans just BLOCKED it

Children, Seniors, Families, and Veterans
How shameful and cruel

After getting some fresh air on this fine fall day, and a juicy fishy supper, my boys pick their lounge spots for #NationalCatDay

(around the Spotify logo) GET ICE OUT OF SPOTIFY ICE DOESN’T NEED A PLAYLIST. IT NEEDS ACCOUNTABILITY. • Cancel your Spotify Premium subscription until Spotify removes all ICE ads • Demand Spotify immediately terminate all ICE and DHS advertising contracts. • Urge artists and podcasters to speak out.

Spotify is running recruitment ads for ICE.

A platform built to connect creators and listeners is helping an authoritarian regime build up its secret police force.

But we’re not going to idly accept that. We’re going to make Spotify listen: indivisible.org/cancel-spoti... #CancelSpotify

Bright fall colors surround the Victory Flagpole, as cars in the busy intersection slow down to look at our signs and honk in support.

#StreetCornerAction at Victory Memorial Flagpole. Skies were grey, but the trees and people were perky. I thought I had some video of Dancing Dave, but my phone failed on that. As usual, lots of supportive honking #NoKingsMNNWMetro #25thAmendmentNow #eightysixfortyseven

It is outrageous that Trump refuses to release the $5 billion to fund SNAP and feed our children.

The good news is that 11 Republicans are joining all Democrats to demand that we feed American children.

Let’s bring that bill to a vote on the floor immediately.

Don’t Stream Fascism: Cancel Spotify

It's outrageous that Spotify is running ICE ads. I already moved to another streaming platform that doesn't profit from exploiting artists while recruiting for ICE. #CancelSpotify app.sosha.ai/s/j1h56288

Yes, they’re using the shutdown to turn off SNAP benefits.

No, they don’t have to.

yes

If I were running the DNC, there would be Democratic Party sponsored food relief banks across the country right now that specifically welcomed anyone regardless of party affiliation.

Along with the food, there could be voter registration and links to runforsomething.net

#TeslaTakedown Golden Valley, MN Oct 25 - Week 39. A little cold & rainy, but folks are feeling energized after such a great #NoKings turnout.

We welcomed #ResistanceWolf to our protest today.

I remain baffled that my northside neighbors support him; at least judging by signs.

Easy for me as I am retired and get my T day feast ingredients at my co-op. I would like to see some national organizations get behind this before suggesting my employed friends do it.

Two demonstrators holding signs , one says " No Oligarchs, No Ice, All We Need is Love" the other says "Restore Cancer Research Funding"

Three demonstrators and a dog. One sign is sideways and unviewable. One of the others says " Resist, Persist, Stand Up, Speak Up, Say No, We Will Not Go Back" the other has an image of the Statue of Liberty and says "This is Our Country, not his"

a few favorite signs

Finally back to the Golden Valley #TeslaTakedown now that I have a car again. In theory I could ride bike that distance but I don't wanna get up that early! They have added some new flags.

Trump says tech chiefs convinced him to call off troop ‘surge’ to San Francisco President specifically lauds Nvidia and Salesforce CEOs and says they told him ‘the future of San Francisco is great’

Fascinating to see the ties tighten between Trump and tech CEOs -- and how they influence policy, like sending troops to SF.

Why is Apple, Microsoft, Lockheed Martin, Blackstone, Google, OpenAI, Amazon and others financing the destruction of the WH and desecration of the grounds, something that is infuriating to huge chunk of the American population? Do you hate your customers that much?

🤬

I think it's a stretch to call Newsom a fascist. I am not going to pretend he's progressive either. However, I will take a neoliberal who sucks on a number of issues over the actual fascist tyrant we currently have. Fortunately, we can still try to get someone better at the front of the pack.

unless you have worked in a hospital yourself and see the kinds of things most of them write in patients' charts

#NoKingsMNNWMetro back at our Victory Flagpole location despite the blustery conditions , only got this short video because I wanted to keep my gloves on

Since trump posted a video of himself shitting on Americans, I think it's free game now to talk about his incontinence issues.

Before #NoKings, there was week 38 of #TeslaTakedown in Golden Valley, MN. More folks than expected and going to a 2nd & 3rd protest. Our DJ had a great playlist for the day.

We debuted our Resistance Flags today.

Most went with direct messages.

beautiful Crystal Lake , right next to where we gathered

a sign with a large photo of Mike Johnson saying 'King's Houseboy"

sign saying "We have a Constitution, not a King"

My bike, decorated with upside down flags, #Resistance bike flaps with the art from the Muse album of the same name, and my sign showing The Tower Tarot card and saying No Kings, 8647
