Barely clutching a spark of light. Hopeful in the face of despair and rage. Looking to grow an activism and resistance gang of folks to withstand what’s coming and cause good trouble. But also, Some days it doesn’t pay to gnaw through the straps. 💪🏼💙❤️‍🩹☮️

Jeffries: "You've got Leavitt, who's sick, she's out of control. I'm not sure if she's just demented, ignorant, a stone cold liar, or all of the above.

Two and a half centuries ago, a handful of farmers and printers and philosophers looked across an ocean at the most powerful man in the world — and said no to a king.

Today, in town and cities across America, we again say No Kings.

Let the world hear loud and clear today: America will never have a king.
