BE AWARE - Especially at No Kings

Undercover ICE, far right influencers, and agitators have
been spotted at other protests.

Mike Johnson has already started the narrative that the No
Kings protest is a "terrorist" event.

They WILL be trying to provoke violence. Whatever you do,
do NOT take the bait. Do not let others take the bait. Stay
peaceful, stay on message.

If you are interviewed, repeat the most unifying talking
points.

Do NOT lean into "antifa" labels. It is not a real organization.
Don't let their lies become real. Don't let it become a label.
Stick to saying the whole thing: We are against fascism and
violations of the constitution.

I think as many straight white people who can should attend whatever "No Kings" protest is near you. But use your head. Stay peaceful. Speak of TRUE patriotism and support of The Constitution, Freedom, and The American Way when asked. Convince people to register to vote AND TO VOTE DEM.

Look Up Your Representative's Number Call your representative today and demand that they vote NO on this bill.

This bill is bad. But the fight isnโ€™t over yet.

Thereโ€™s still time to tell your representatives to say NO to this cruel bill: ewar.ren/y8t

It's sort of fascinating how ALL OF THIS lawless tyranny is happening, all around us at all times, and never once have a gang of Second Amendment enthusiasts showed up with their God-given rifles to fend off the secret police. Not once. When they've been driven off it's been by the unarmed.

Tulsi Gabbard tweet from 2019: Trump says he doesn't want war with Iran, but that's exactly what he wants, because that's exactly what Saudi Arabia, Netanyahu, al-Qaeda, Bolton, Haley, and other NeoCons/NeoLibs want. Thatโ€™s what he put first--not America.

Tariffs.
Stock market down.
Medicaid slashed
Secret police throwing anyone who looks Latino in unmarked vans.
National guard and marines deployed in LA.
No end to the wars in Gaza or Ukraine
Bombing Iran

This is the worst first six months of any presidential term in my lifetime.

Am I the only one who is just plain exhausted by this billionaire v. billionaire tiff? Can we move on from this petty distraction?

Iโ€™m still sorta surprised at how thoroughly Target misunderstood its customerโ€”or, at least, one of its most important customers. Relatively well-off, college-educated suburban women do a disproportionately massive amount of consumer spending, loved Target, and are statistically not Trump voters
