Political junkie… got hooked on the Watergate trials as a jr in HS. Believe strongly in equality, fairness, kindness, the promise of America that we are still striving to achieve. I’m a wife, a mom, past banker and proud Cape Codder.

My husband, whose dad was an AF Major in strategic Command/electronic threat assessments of nuclear weapons, was born on this base in Mt Home Iowa. I heard MANY expletives when he read where the Qataris were going to be based. MANY.

Multiple Chicago schools went on lockdown today because of ICE, including my son’s and the one I’m on the council of. Spent the last two hours standing outside, trying to make sure nothing happens to these kids. This is horrible.

From the day after the election @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social and @chuckschumer.com & their leadership teams SHOULD have been in a room identifying opposition tactics- NO DEM votes on cabinet, judges, Bills. Instead they both put out stmts-we’ll look for common ground” . NO. We will oppose everything

No Kings protests, and anti-regime protests in general, serve two main positive functions:

1) Reminding participants and observers that they’re very far from alone, countering regime efforts to divide and isolate

2) Showing the absurdity of regime lies about the peaceful, pro-democracy opposition

Funny they can't say the name of protests because saying "No Kings" makes it soooo clear it's the opposite of a "hate America rally"
