Using our military to intimidate people you disagree with politically doesn't make you look strong.

It makes you look weak.

It's reckless, it's disrespectful, and yet another action beneath the office of the presidency.

“If you come to any of our protests, it’s a bunch of old grandmas and grandpas and dogs.”

They’re teachers, nurses, Mennonites, and Marines. The Trump administration calls them antifa.

The No King protests represent a broad popular front. That's exactly why the president's allies are demonizing the organizers.

Well done, Detroit! We shouldn’t have to accept her “Noem-enclature.”

A tweet from Barb McQuade reads: “Today at Detroit Metro Airport.” The attached photo shows an airport security area with stanchions and blue lane dividers, where travelers are lined up in the background. In the foreground, there’s a large yellow sign with black text that reads: “ATTENTION: The views expressed in this TSA controlled video do not represent the views of the Wayne County Airport Authority. The Wayne County Airport Authority does not engage in partisan politics. Thank you.”

Donald,

We are not afraid of you, because even with the greatest seat of power, you are a spectacularly small man.

We are not afraid of you because you are not worthy of our fear; because that would mean respecting you—and we do not.

As governor, I know @mikiesherrill.bsky.social will deliver for New Jersey. She has the experience and plans to drive down costs – and the integrity, grit, and commitment to service to be the kind of leader we need right now.

Make a plan to vote today at mikiesherrill.com.
