These so-called "DEMOCRAT AGENCIES"...

-Ensure our food is safe to eat
-Keep our air and water clean
-Alert us to natural disasters
-Protect us from financial fraud and scammers

Remember what Trump is actually attacking.

Boeing paid its CEO $18 million for 4 months of work while taking away health care benefits from 3200 machinists in St. Louis who have been on strike for 2 months & were making as little as $18 an hour.

I say to the CEO of Boeing: End your greed. Sign a fair union contract NOW.

Defend Democracy ICT - 🚫 NO Kings Day 2: The People > The Crown 👑 · No Kings

🚫 NO Kings Day 2: The People > The Crown 👑 We’ve been witnessing Trump’s continued authoritarian power grabs. He’s deploying the military to blue cities, abducting immigrants and holding them in inhumane facilities, attempting to rig congressional maps—and more. But we know this: Consistency is key in our fight. Highly visible, peaceful protests are one of the most powerful ways to send a loud and clear message that we do NOT support this regime’s policies. 📅 Date: Saturday, October 18, 20...
