Uh, this rules.
I’m announcing my plan to take on our broken, corrupt political system:
✅Ban corporate PACs & super PACs
✅Ban lawmakers from trading stocks
✅And require every member of Congress to hold annual town halls
This is how we build a government of, by, and for the people.

Today once again proved that everyday citizens protesting their government are braver than the titans who own the largest media corporations, run the biggest law firms and lead the most powerful technology companies.

Some scam PACs are bilking people with No Kings branding. I strongly advise you prioritize organizing with your community over donating online to anyone (us included). But if you want to donate, you can go to Indivisible.org or pick your favorite real No Kings partner at NoKings.org/partners
@indivisible.org FYI found a scam PAC that's probably stealing a copyright from you www.no-kings.io

Tonight, the President of the United States has launched an unconstitutional war of aggression, dooming another generation to spill their blood for oil, and lay waste to a sovereign nation.
I demand that Congress exercise its power, halt this conflict, and impeach this war criminal president.

Becoming increasingly clear we’re gonna have to build a parallel infrastructure for all the media we really love. The reason all of this is happening under the color of law is hyperconsolidation, dissent being traded straight up for merger approval, or fear of harassment.

I hope more people are seeing the writing on the wall. Because it appears as though the people we elected are delusional and think we are going to fix this with decorum and lawsuits. Some of them need to pick up a history book or two. American exceptionalism won’t save us. #seattle #washingtonstate

The first time Charlie Chaplin used his voice in a film, he wielded it to forcefully condemn the rising forces of fascism around the globe. Will we listen to his words today?
