It's insulting AF to watch the GOP try to gaslight the American people into believing that kids in frog suits are violent insurrectionists and No Kings will be anything other than regular freedom-loving Americans exercising our Constitutional rights.

Tr*mp wants to invoke the Insurrection Act over THIS??

The super rich live in grotesque decadence while they tell working class people it's a moral good for us to be deprived of pleasure, comfort, leisure. They want us fighting over the scraps while they take our taxes, life hours, the wealth of this nation and live in obscene luxury.

They want us fighting for the scraps.

Not a single Democrat voted in July for the $4.5 trillion in tax cuts within President Trump’s “big, beautiful” reconciliation bill. trib.al/aiMllmQ

The only legislators who voted themselves tax cuts were Republicans—not a single Republican voted *against* the bill.

They always do the paid protester bit but I think part of the reason is this particular gang of corrupt nihilists literally can't understand why someone would give a shit about anything without getting money for it

REPORTER: We know the president moved forward with mass layoffs. We're also learning there were significant cuts to staff at special education services. Are you comfortable with those cuts?

MIKE JOHNSON: I haven't seen the specifics of that and I don't know

I'm not going to say, "I've been shouting for months that we need to learn from nonviolent movements that used humor, ridicule, whimsy to effectively undercut an authoritarian regime."

Adam Keiper @adamkeiper.com · 10h

"Even the more staid institutions in the Democratic party are beginning to revamp their approach. The DNC in recent months has cut down on its bureaucratic social media approval process and embraced a more trollish style...."

Can Democrats Mock Trump Into Defeat?

As the president embraces strongman politics, Democrats are increasingly trying to make him seem little.

We handed out fliers for #nokings on Oct 18th. We were surprised how many young folks didn’t know about it but were really excited to learn! Talking to people IRL & giving them a piece of paper works.

No Kings

As the president escalates his authoritarian power grab, the NO KINGS non-violent movement continues to rise stronger. We are united once again to remind the world: America has No Kings and the power ...

You don't have to judge Columbus by the standards of today. His tenure as governor of Hispaniola was so horrific that he was dragged back to Spain in chains to answer for his many crimes.

Plus he never set foot on any land that would ever be a part of the United States of America.

This is truly grotesque. Teachers should not be using this stuff. If a school was pushing it on teachers who work with kids I care about, I'd make a big effing stink until they stopped. We have to not give into this.

Fuck Columbus Day and Tr*mp's pathetic attempts to regress this country to a weaker, less prosperous, and more racist time.

Tomorrow we celebrate Indigenous People's Day. Native People have been here since time immemorial and will outlast Tr*mp and his fear and hate.

'We're back, Italians.' Trump ditches Indigenous Peoples Day to honor Christopher Columbus

The Trump administration has taken a keen interest in how U.S. history is presented, targeting alleged "woke" policies and institutions.

Keep mainlining that copium, Mike. (I'm sure you'll have to confess that sin to your son, since you made him your "accountability-buddy" in your really enmeshed, inappropriate parent-child dynamic.)

Even MAGA blame the GOP for the shutdown. Bc it's OBVIOUSLY their fault.
