In his last speech, Dr. King reminded us that the greatness of America is the right to protest for rights.

His words are as relevant today as they were then.

In the face of authoritarianism, we'll always remain active, engaged, and relentless in our pursuit of justice.

Record EVERYTHING! Thanks to all the brave souls out there recording these Nazi bastards. Your videos will help bring them to justice when they fall from power.

Imagine fearing a personโ€™s skin color or origin more than a leader who dismantles democracy. Trumpโ€™s regime operates on the playbook of a dictatorship, using ICE as a weapon of terror. We must resist this authoritarian drift before the damage to our humanity becomes irreversible. โœŠ๐Ÿ›ก๏ธ

Trump fights the release of SNAP benefits, forcing Americans to go hungry, at the same time heโ€™s bragging on lowering the cost of a weight loss drug.

This is America in a nutshellโ€ผ๏ธ

Control women's bodies, defund healthcare and child care. Men legislating uteruses remains America's most enduring bipartisan tradition. One notes: they'll force birth but refuse to feed children. Cruelty from conception through starvation, legislated exclusively by those who'll never be pregnant.

Trump has threatened states to undo any SNAP benefits issued to recipients. Check your EBT cards folks - and get to the store. I personally donโ€™t receive these benefits but if you do, Trump is already trying to take it away. This is heartbreaking! How is this even Americaโ‰๏ธ

One of the unacknowledged advantages of this awful era is that it's revealing for all to see the putrid connections between great wealth and great power.

The intentions of the oligarchs are fully exposed and more blatant than ever.

But remember: We outnumber the oligarchs.

Record as much of this as you can. Keep the receipts.
Remember their names. And what they did to this country.

Charlie Kirk was someone who preached hate, misogyny, and racism under the guise of religion.
For a country that was founded on uniting the colonists against hatred, this is not someone the US or its founders should be proud of.
