Abso-f *cking-lutely right! Roughly $42 billion on those few items, plus $1 Trillion in tax cuts to his obscenely rich buddies, plus billions more for ICE recruitment & bonuses! How many people would still have health insurance, SNAP benefits, how many nursing homes & hospitals could survive? #FDT

This!! This, this, this! Send this to every governor & elected state official in every state, either red or blue. This could help us stop all the Citizens United dirty money & corruption flowing thru our elections!

This is the best political news I’ve seen in a very long time — so please pass it on👇

Each state can limit Citizens United in their own state & they don’t have to wait for other states to do it.

More than 2 hours after thousands of Portlanders started streaming across the Hawthorne Bridge, there were still more crossing to go to the rally on the waterfront and march downtown. Wow! Thank you Portland! No Kings.

Hundreds of new homes for veterans are coming to California through voter-approved Prop 1 funding.

707 permanent supportive homes — including 231 for veterans — will be built across the state through the Homekey+ program.

California stands with those who’ve served our country.

Hark, Speaker Mike Johnson! Looking at all the many, many pics of the enormous, joyous “No Kings” rallies throughout the United States today, I am struck by what lovely weather your Lord and Savior provided. Apparently, God is a fan of, as you claimed, "America-hating Antifa terrorists." Glory!

We have a president that hates the main principles that the United States was founded upon.

We have a president that hates the majority of the citizens of the U.S.

We have a president that is waging war against me and against you!

WTAF?! Un-f*cking-believable. He truly needs psychiatric care. He's so f*cking insecure & immature! Does NO ONE in his close circle have any control over his insane media output?! His behavior is so beyond normal, someone must see how bizarre it is? ANYONE? Just keep him away from the nuclear codes.

MomNanaSassafrass @nanasass.bsky.social · 2d

Nope, no terrorism. Just millions of patriotic, America-loving, unpaid folks exercising their 1st Amendment rights to free speech & peaceful assembly. All because the white supremacists in our White House think we should all sit the f*ck down & shut the f*ck up while they destroy our democracy. FDT

Crowd estimates, by State Patrol & law enforcement (who fortunately only had to worry about traffic safety & any medical emergencies) is at least 100,000 people in downtown Minneapolis alone!! Not to mention all the smaller, local rallies across the state! MN, you ROCK! 💙✊️💙

Kudos, Gov Pritzker, for standing tough against the insanity spewing from the Mangomoron & his belligerent band of syncophants! Please hang in there, we know none of this is remotely normal and we need every blue governor to follow your lead! 💙🤞💙
