It's official. Nearly 7 million people. Today is the single largest day of protest in American history. Americans from all corners of the country are standing up and saying #NoKings. This is what peaceful, patriotic protest looks like.

The Declaration of Independence specifies 27 grievances with King George III and Britain.

Donald Trump and his regime have committed at least 20 of those same offenses highlighted in yellow.

Being in amongst community doing something in the spirit of shared purpose, stewardship, solidarity, mutual aid—it feels good, it builds something GOOD, it builds resilience and strength and takes some of the edge off the fear we all feel

And it scares the hell outta the other guy 🫡
Just new Historic New Orleans exhibit on Civil Rights. I feel just gutted, today of all days.

We didn't vote for this — and right now, Americans need to stand together in solidarity and, in one voice, from sea to shining sea, demand "No kings!" Please — find your local #NoKings event at www.NoKings.org and be there...for the love of America.

But does that mean like Bray, who studies antifascism, that people will assume you are a fascist? I hope not and know you are not but I am confused by the new so-called rules for historians.

There it is: $20 billion for Argentina at the same time they’re taking markets away from our farmers.

But no $ for health insurance for Americans?

Republicans are currently going around the media to claim the nationwide peaceful No Kings protest on 10/18 is a “Hate America” rally.

Actually, No Kings is a rally of love—love for the founding ideals of America, love for the democracy and freedoms we cherish, love for one another.

Let’s show it:

I know everyone is consumed with other news, but this is a big fucking deal: The Trump administration says that IUDs and the Pill are actually abortions.

Here's what USAID told the NYT about the $10m in birth control they plan to destroy.

Omg the student. What a good little nazi. “Our president says there are only two genders.” Really chilling. Shame on Texas A&M.

If all it takes is one student to get 3 people removed in a University, it's another step to destroying the University system in the US. Denouncing intellectuals is a hallmark of Fascist and Communist countries. It takes all the other students and faculty to make a stand to stop it.
