The day started with tragedy with political violence in MN and instead of being scared, neighbors SHOWED UP to stand together at No Kings Twin Cities. We packed the Capitol Mall all the way to the Cathedral. Estimate 80,000+ right now. So proud of our state. #nokings #indivisible

We’ve truly lost our way in this country.

An 80-year-old vet who fought for this country just got arrested protesting Trump‘s parade. He deserves respect, not handcuffs.

You've got to wonder how many signal chats are going on in the Trump administration that they didn't accidentally include the Editor in Chief of The Atlantic in.

COURAGE
Gavin Newsom & Governor JB Pritzker Elon Musk and Donald J. Trump are characterizing Canada the way Putin did Ukraine before the invasion. As a proud Canadian and grateful resident of California for 24 years and former resident of Illinois, I call upon each of you to demonstrate Political Courage, and make clear to the Trump administration that any military annexation of or incursion in Canada will result in your, and of like-minded fellow governors, immediate implementation of a policy of secession out of the United States, starting with the withholding of your states’ federal taxes and the blocking of any effort to federalize your National Guard. The Democratic Party has long been heavy on flowery oratory but a complete failure when it comes to robust leadership as is evident given the party’s silence and lack of coordination in the face of a coup by the Executive. This is not about the Democratic Party — it is about Democracy. It is not about the Republican Party — it is about the Republic. The time for friendly podcasts is over. Though I arrived alone in Chicago as I turned 17, I have never forgotten that I am the son of a Holocaust Survivor — I have known Elon Musk personally for 14 years and understand what horrors will befall America and her Allies if this administration is not loudly denounced and kept in check at every corner. In Pugna Maneo! I, and all the people who share this message, count on your actual Leadership and Fighting Spirit. Dr. Philip Low, Ph.D. Chaiman, CEO & Founder | NeuroVigil Frmr.

You hear sometimes, now that we know the sordid details of the lives of some of our leading figures, that America has no heroes left.
