Demolition derby
Image of planned WH ballroom imposed on existing structures supports foreboding that ornate but historically-insignificant ballroom will overwhelm the overall historically-significant site.

We asked Donald Trump to cut health care costs. Instead, he cut off a wing of the White House.

This is a picture of the East Wing of the White House today. NY Post says, "Windows facing the Treasury Department are smashed and half-off their hinges and the former White House calligraphy office bears a gaping hole."

No Kings, called No Dictators or No Tyrants in some places, is centered around a love for American democracy.

After a week of ridiculous Republican smears and Trump claiming that “very few people are going to be there,” you just made history. #NoKings
(around an image of the No Kings logo) IT’S OFFICIAL Nearly 7 million people have attended today's peaceful protests, which makes No Kings Day the biggest single-day protest against tyranny in American history! With more than 2,700 lawful and peaceful protests across all 50 states, No Kings Day was 14 times larger than both of Trump's presidential inaugurations (combined).

Paper clips spoken of in wagingnonviolence.org/2013/04/wood...
"Norwegians were forbidden from wearing any symbol of the state or royalty, so students began wearing paper clips to demonstrate their support for resistance, and that symbol spread."

Screenshot of a Facebook post featuring three of the Portland protesters wearing inflatable frog costumes with the following text: Episcopalians on Facebook Elizabeth Rose Elrod • 22h • Exodus 8:2-6 "But if you refuse to let them go, I will plague your whole country with frogs... The frogs shall come up on you and on your people and on all your officials."

I remember when I used to go DAYS—WEEKS EVEN—without thinking about the President of the United States because I wasn’t worried about him starting a civil or world war, making a gestapo police force, or ripping our constitution to shreds.

Journalist Edward R. Murrow used his platform on CBS to criticize the witch hunts led by Senator Joseph McCarthy in the 1950s.

This is what real journalism should do — hold power to account, not capitulate to it.

We have armed secret police kidnapping people off the street based on the color of their skin.

When we win: we will haul them before a Senate committee. The masks will come off. There will be consequences.
