This is why so many American patriots have come out for the No Kings protest against Trump and his fascist authoritarian regime. 🥹😭👇

“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.”

It costs a lot less to house people.

Finland ends homelessness and provides shelter for all in need - scoop.me

In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Why? The country applies the "Housing First" concept agains homelessness.

Study after study shows that it's remarkably cheap and easy to solve the problems of homelessness and poverty with low-barrier supportive housing and universal basic income, but our own fear that someone, somewhere will get something they didn't "earn" keeps us looking for other (punitive) options.

Except, this time, the younger folks Millennials, Gen Z, & younger have succumbed to tiktok propaganda who think all the Democrats that toiled to save us from the literal brink, clawing forward are the enemy. 1st generation to ignore the lessons of the past and throw everything away in purity rage.

That hormone replacement therapy isn't doing wonders for her mustache. It's tough being an older woman around the Trump/Epstein clan

Didn't MTG make demands for Santos's release? Watch ol Marjorie to see if she starts getting quiet and towing the GOP Maga line again.

Our federal tax dollars are being used to fund a network of government social media accounts that pump out disinformation 24/7. Even during a government shutdown. It’s definitely not essential work.

He's unleashing the absurd so when he commutes & pardons the most egregious criminals,e.g. Maxwell, et. al. it will be just another day of the fascist King destroying America so the white GOP incels can hold power.

From the Don't Tread On Me party that still thinks Obama spies on them through microwaves and hacked their phones. This party went from clamoring for metadata with the patriot act to all out spyware. Every claim is a projection and every lie is an admission or propaganda.

Tomorrow is No Kings and we are asking you do NOT sit down at any protests when you see an instigator or agitator. Please do not put your life at risk and immobilize yourself by sitting down.

Be safe, have each others backs and stay vigilant. And DO NOT SIT DOWN! #NoKings

The GOP are the most repugnant, odious, vile animals. Rabid wolves have less mouth frothing.

A terrific AFP fact check uses reverse image searches to expose how a White House video took scenes from Florida, Texas, South Carolina and Nebraska and lied that they showed "Chicago is in chaos."

Post from WH about Chicago "in chaos," showing scene from another state.

It's like the wordsmiths are choosing to assist in the GOP's agenda to destroy democracy. What a terrible way to sell papers, unless subscriptions will be required by law.
