NO KINGS IN AMERICA… 😎 @jerasikehorn.bsky.social · 3h

Never forget this: The forces rigging our economy, undermining our democracy, polluting our planet, and stoking hatred are counting on you to give up.

Cynicism is how they win.

Stay clear-eyed and ready for the fight ahead.

Whistling when ICE is about to kidnap someone for no reason is incredibly effective. They know what they are doing is wrong and will scatter in the wind when too many witnesses gather.

Just got my CAVA bag stuffed with cash from George Soros to attend the #NoKings rally on October 18th. Still waiting to hear from Antifa headquarters if one of their corporate jets is available. Otherwise, I'll use my Delta "American Terrorists As Bad As Isis Fly Free" coupon. Glory!

Trump’s deployment of military troops into our cities is unlawful — and unacceptable.

This is a threat to our freedoms and our democracy.
