Pritzker- "Trump is a convicted felon, this guy's unhinged, he's insecure, he's a wannabe dictator. And there's one thing I really want to say to Donald Trump: If you come for my people, you come through me. So, come and get me."

United, we out number their leaders about 340,000,000 to 1,000.

Scattered and disorganized, they will pick us off one by one.

History proves that whatever promises they made to their followers will be broken as soon as their turn comes.

Even if you aid them now, they will turn on you later.

Thank you mayor Johnson.

Yes, I can imagine it. It gives me nightmares.

What you don't see is what happens back at the baracks

"Why the fuck are we here?! There's no crime! It's better than home. Command must have their heads up their ass."

They would respond with violence and they're not very bright, so they assumed we would.

The other side being idiots helps.

This is one way to nonviolently resist fascism and IT IS WORKING.

Moving the line forward to push them back is better.

Giving them treats is better yet - it's like making friends with a mean dog. You can condition with treats.

Patting them on the head could be viewed as an attack, so don't do it.

🚨About 2 hours ago in Chicago. You see peaceful protestors across the street from armed, angry, geared up Trump enforcers. He wants violence. He is getting none of it. ✊🏼 Power to the People ✊🏼

It's theater to fool his base into thinking he and Putin are not allies in this mess.

We damn well better dare to do it!

Keep doing it
Keep recording it

Accepting the risk of harm is how nonviolent resistance wins.

Do it with backup!

Neutrality is now impossible because inaction aids and abets the fascist coupe in power.

If you don’t speak out, stand up and support The Constitutional Resistance and CHOOSE to do nothing

you are passively supporting the fascist overthrow of America.

They negotiated with terrorists to win an election.

They learned their could break the law as long as they got results and they have been breaking the law ever since.

Enforcing the law by breaking the law IS A CRIME and they elected a felon as president.

We did that with the Marshal and McArthur plans for Germany and Japan and they’re solidly democratic.

But we failed to do it with the fallen USSR allowing the rise of Putin.

This immediate fiasco began when the US embassy in Iran was taken and the GOP‘s oil buddies bought the hostages back.

BULL SHIT!

It started when the Union Army reneged on the Twenty Acres and a Mule deal to reform the south to democratic principles after the civil war.

Machiavelli wrote - when you defeat an enemy you must do it so thoroughly they can never rise to take revenge.

We didn’t follow through.

Their goal is the destruction of federal government and the constitution. I worked with some of these whack jobs and because I look like them they told me their goals!

The Second Civil War to protect their constitutional right of conquest to become the lords of America.

They’re insane, but real.
