Whatever date he finally kicks the bucket should be made a national holiday - a day of celebration and cheer when we all get together to talk about anything other than the wannabe dictator who foolishly thought he could steal our democracy out from under us.

And if you have a flag, bring it. Conservatives like to think it belongs to them, but it doesn’t, and if the administration’s goons start cracking down on peaceful, American flag-bearing protesters, it’s going to look really bad for them, so it might offer some protection, too.

If Republicans are going to label you a terrorist for peacefully protesting Trump's failing presidency, abuses of power, and treatment of blue America as an enemy nation, let's turn out in even bigger numbers.

On the pod, @jilldlawrence.bsky.social and me on this:

MAGA Rage at “No Kings” Boils Over—and It Quickly Backfires on Trump

As Trump allies smear the coming protests, a good writer on MAGA skewers the absurdity of these attacks on large swaths of Americans—and explains why our best recourse will be to turn out in force.

Document signed at yesterday's peace summit in Egypt outlines only broad principles for Gaza's future, highlighting ongoing challenges to achieving lasting resolution to the conflict.
Trump, leaders of Egypt, Qatar, and Turkey signed the agreement. The warring parties—Israel and Hamas, did not.

Yes let’s all listen to the judge who said “fuck the courts” for his deep and considered thoughts. Fuck Bove and fuck the GOP for delivering him a lifetime appointment.

From city streets to rural crossroads, a movement is rising: millions strong, peaceful but unyielding.

We’re the people who still believe in dignity, fairness, and freedom.

No Thrones.
No Crowns.
No Kings.
Just us, We the People, refusing to bow.

Show up if you can.
#NoKings

Mike Johnson has two things he should be doing right now & 2026 Nobel Peace Prize is NOT one of them:

1. Swear in the new Representative Grijalva so the Epstein files can be released.

2. Negotiate a deal to restore healthcare.

ICE Serves Only to Terrorize and Occupy Americans

It's no longer just undocumented immigrants, Muslims, Black people, & pro-Palestinian activists who are targets. As ICE violently marches across American cities, the majority must stand up & resist.
