Protests are fine. But No Kings is more than protests. If you are interested, check out No Kings/One Million Rising website.

It’s difficult to know. There has always been a desire to make protests nonviolent and safe. No Kings is, of course, more than outdoor protests. It’s a multi-pronged approach to standing up to authoritarian regimes.

He lost an election and refused to accept the results.

He forced the Smithsonian to lie about American history.

He fired the head statistician bcuz he didn’t like the jobs numbers.

He can’t handle the truth. We elected the biggest pussy/coward/sore loser in all of human history.

Congratulations to us. We have a sex offender in the White House covering up his and his buddies sexual crimes against minors, we have a press secretary calling 6 year olds criminals, we have a Sec of Defense who does whatever the F the bottle tells him to, and nobody is doing anything about it.

Bacteria, virus, and vaccine conspiracy theories are so interesting and so deadly. The next 3.5 years will demonstrate that.

The entire reason we created the ACA and Medicaid expansion is many jobs don’t offer health insurance, and certainly those who work as contractors or consultants are not employees. They all understand this and are just saying crazy shit up there all the time. Ugly bill will hurt entrepreneurship.

Doesn’t South Dakota have a state ethics committee or something that can hold her accountable?

The common Democrat varietal is so accustomed to producing messages only marginally different from Republicans that when Cuomo spent his campaign fearmongering about crime rates, there was little pushback.

There’s a growing appetite for something new—Mamdani delivered that.

Justice Sotomayor dissenting on birthright citizenship case: "The gamesmanship in this request is apparent and the Government makes no attempt to hide it. Yet, shamefully, this Court plays along. Because I will not be complicit in so grave an attack on our system of law, I dissent."

Just like a woman in California has a right to an abortion twhile a woman in Missouri does not.

That was the entire point of state’s rights. Some state have rights for their citizens and others do not.
