American fascists are, obviously, very scared about how big a protest "No Kings" will be this weekend, as seen by their hysterical, dishonest rhetoric about it.

Let's make their fears come true by showing up on October 18

"We can have democracy in this country, or we can have great wealth concentrated in the hands of a few, but we can't have both." –Justice Louis Brandeis

Words spoken many years ago that are just as relevant today.

We must continue the fight to get big money out of politics.

I really don’t care if it’s someone’s 18th birthday or they’re 80, anyone who says things like “the watermelon people” and and wants “Nazi gas chambers” needs to have their professional lives destroyed. They need to be on terrorism watch lists. Would you want to fly with that person? Hell no.

Today, I convened a group of former military generals and veterans to hear perspectives on deploying troops in American cities.

Their commitment is to our nation. That’s why they’re speaking out against what the President's doing as uncalled-for, unprecedented, and un-American.

Oh…to be sure, we’re going to have a lot of hell to trudge through…more than most people ever imagined. But…on the other side of that hell, is, “These MF’rs failed…and they will continue to!”

Sanders: They have refused to negotiate. And anyone thinks that tomorrow they'll suddenly start negotiating. I think, is smoking what is illegal in many states

AOC: And should be legal in more.
