Just days before losing such a kind soul, #MelissaHortman gets emotional at the thought of #immigrants losing their #healthcare.

This is not normal. This is not okay. We cannot let them convince us that this is normal or okay.
Thank you for your attention to this matter! #NoKings
EPIC response.

The 3.5 rule is a set of conclusions from research conducted by Chenoweth & Stephan authors of Why Civil Resistance Works They reviewed historical data & found support for the notion that a government could not successfully withstand a challenge when 3.5% of its population actively mobilized ...

The most consequential Speaker in state history.
Reporter: I'm going to show you what 20,000 people in the streets of downtown Los Angeles looks like
Trump parade vs No Kings march, San Diego
Approximately 175 people showed up in Dillon Montana, a small town in very red area. Well received by most passers-by. A few counterprotesters were there but left early. Local law enforcement was polite and helpful.
the story today is of a profoundly low energy military parade being met with millions of americans in nationwide protests denouncing the dictatorial pretensions of the president
More than five million Americans in over 2,100 towns and cities joined us today to say we don't do kings in this country. Thank you for making it clear that we won't be ruled by fear.
Los Angeles. Just wow.
Happy Barack Obama Appreciation Day!
Mark this for the history books: “We’re talking about the president exercising his authority, and the president is of course limited to his authority. That’s the difference between a constitutional government and King George,” said Judge Charles Breyer.
BREAKING: A federal judge halted provisions of Trump’s anti-voting order that required documentary proof of citizenship for voter registration and targeted mail-in ballot receipt deadlines.

Bob Costas nailed it. 🎯
Padilla: “We will hold this administration accountable”
I'm on my way to the Senate floor to talk about the assault on my colleague, Senator Alex Padilla.
This is a horrifying moment in our nation’s history.
BESSENT: We inherited this fiscal situation--
BENNET: You inherited it from Donald Trump! He's the first president to come back after a four year hiatus after we know exactly what the last tax cuts did, which was blow a massive hole in our deficits and debt. You can't sit here and lie about that!
When @terrymoranabc.bsky.social interviewed Mr. Trump i was reminded of his integrity, quest for truth and pressing his audience to think. His recent post on X was icing on the cupcake.
I will be damned if I allow a bunch of Confederate-waving January 6th apologists give the American people a lecture on flag waving.
There is ZERO reason to enter an argument about patriotism with people who still worship traitors to America 150+ years later.
They. Are. Breaking. The. Law.
This is a superb speech by @governor.ca.gov just now.
Clear. Strong. Simple. Direct. Angry—in a way that appeals to the best in people, not the worst. Seven plus minutes of the most effective rhetoric in response to Trump.
This is how you want a leader to talk.

In case you lost perspective, the map shows the city of LA. The red circle is the area of protest. For this, Trump federalized 4000 national guards, 600 Marines, and spent $134 million.
Gov. Newsom is right to sue him and seek a legal stop order.
