Our country was built on the idea of #NoKings

It’s our patriotic duty to peacefully protest against the current administration to save our democracy.

Trump bailed out Argentina, who then undercut US farmers by selling their soybeans to China, who used be our biggest customer for soybeans before Trump drove them away with his tariffs.

This is Trump 3D chess in action.

Arrogance, Ignorance and Idiocy.

Elections aren’t every 4 years or every 2 years, they’re every year. In California we have a special election for prop 50 and it’s a YES. If Texas can gerrymander then we should be able to. I know my comments will be filled with bots, but I won’t be intimidated. Our democracy is vanishing❤️

If a man or men with masks and guns try to kidnap me, I assume it’s a serial killer looking to make a size 12 suit of me or they are trafficking me for the slave trade to sew soccer balls with my teeth therefore I will be fighting for my life.

This is not just funny, it's smart. We need more of this mockery that shows these thugs that we see their despicable fascism and give them the respect that they deserve.

California, this November 4th, the whole country is counting on you.

Prop 50 puts our elections back on a level playing field, preserves independent redistricting over the long term, and lets the people decide.

So return your ballot today. Vote yes on 50.

BREAKING: Barack Obama has endorsed California’s Proposition 50, bold move to redistribute representation within California, countering efforts by Texas to poach congressional seats.
I stand with Obama and Gavin Newsom. How about you?

Authoritarianism is a cancer. And it's growing, metastasizing. In America. Now.

YOU are the cure. Do your part and join us on Saturday.

Do it for your country. For the Constitution. For your freedoms.

John Oliver's segment on Bari Weiss, the Free Press and CBS News was brilliant, thorough, fair - and SHOULD have been devastating to the aforementioned. Bottom line: CBS "News" now goes in air quotes, like Fox "News"... bluevirginia.us/2025/10/mond...
