THREE WAYS TO TAKE ACTION NOW

1. Donate to your local food bank.

2. Collect and distribute to your local community shelter. Check with your local organizations first to see what they need most.

3. Host a give-back drive in your community. Visit NoKings.org/alliance to learn more.

Boy, those peasants during the French Revolution sure looked hungry. Neither cake nor ballrooms were very satiating.

The President wants to use the military to crack down on Americans who are exercising their 1st Amendment rights to oppose him. I canโ€™t think of a better reason to insist on exercising those rights.

DaMareo Cooper: I grew up on food stamps. I'm from Akron, Ohio and my mother, Patricia Coker, God rest her soul. You know, she literally worked herself to death so that my sister and I could have opportunities. We were in the projects and on welfare. Social safety nets helped my mom take care of us.

I feel like this absolute monsoon of a rain storm arrived without warning. It was so much worse than norโ€™easters we have been warned about for 48 hours with increasing urgency. Is this a forecast fail, a me fail, or maybe shutdown/doge cuts related?

No Kings Alliance โ€” No Kings Authoritarianism thrives on silence. The No Kings Alliance exists to make capitulation impossibleโ€”and resistance unstoppable.

On Saturday, health insurance premiums are projected to double for millions of Americans and 42 million working families will lose the benefits that keep them fed.

This weekend, join the No Kings Alliance and millions of us who will come together to provide mutual aid and care for our communities.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 85th day out of the last 97.

12 days of work in over 3 months.

With full pay and benefits.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

Yesterday, we made history. Around 7 MILLION people across the United States stood up to say #NoKings, with allies around the world in countries like Japan, the United Kingdom, France, and Australia joining us in solidarity.

BUT OUR FIGHT IS NOT OVER.

January 6th 2021:

Smeared sh*t on Capitol walls, erected a guillotine for the VP, officers attacked (& some killed) by mob of Trumpers, caused millions in damages...all to attempt to keep their cult leader in power.

This is what democracy looks like.

This is what democracy looks like.

I had the chance to visit with most of our #NoKings attendees today. There is new urgency to their hope, a bigger drive behind their need to help course-correct this country.

Big dose of optimism for me today.

Q: "Trump authorized military strikes...in the Caribbean. 20 people have been killed in six different strikes. Do you believe these strikes are legal?"
