This #NoKings was huge, bigger than last one. Very rough estimate of 12K. Yay, #Asheville. If you know the city, marchers reached from Pack Square to Pritchard Park, and that wasnโ€™t everyone. Lots stayed at the amphitheater or lined the streets.

From AVL Today:
Itโ€™s a beautiful day in the neighborhood because Readerโ€™s Digest has named #Asheville as 2025โ€™s Nicest Place in America.

Many commended Ashevilleโ€™s compassion in the face of crisis as Helene wrought devastation in the area.

Help Rodney Taylor, a Disabled Double Amputee Being Held by ICE Rodney has been in the country more than 40 years. He's in solitary confinement in Georgia, being denied disability accommodations and having his medical needs ignored. He must be released.

โ€œItโ€™s yet another way this regime practices eugenics. By refusing disabled people the accommodations they need, theyโ€™re targeting them for elimination.

People die in ICE custody every year, but we often donโ€™t hear about them. Their stories go untold, their pleas unheard and the eugenics unopposedโ€

Words from Trump in 2013. The Internet remembers.
