At the Georgia State Capitol to lend my voice to common sense gun control. I favor rifles & shotguns but question the need for other firearms.

"Democracy dies in oligarchy." #EndCitizensUnited!
If Jeff Bezos could afford to spend $75 million on the Melania movie & $500 million for a yacht to sail off to his $55 million wedding to give his wife a $5 million ring, please don't tell me he needed to fire one-third of the Washington Post staff.

Democracy dies in oligarchy.

"All laws which are repugnant to the Constitution are null and void.”
I also think that Robert's "immunity for presidents" is against the constitution & therefor invalid.

" I hope the leaders of American business are condemned to the hellfire they deserve for helping destroy American democracy."
Friends, when the history of this sordid period of America is written — assuming it’s not written by historians trying to curry favor with a future fascist regime — I hope the leaders of American business are condemned to the hellfire they deserve for helping destroy American democracy.

JUST IN: Republicans are actively trying to take over the 2026 election in 15 states. They would like to nationalize the system. Wake up America! This is fascism‼️

#DonaldTrump is a #RACIST & #FASCIST! Worst president EVER! He is in power for the #Billionaires, not us. We will use everything in our power, the Vote, Protests, Courts & Social Media, to tie his hands & end this administration's lawlessness.
For years, Trump has spun immigrants, reporters, and anyone he dislikes as the "enemy." This created dehumanizing and legitimizing ideology on which he and his administration are now arresting, brutalizing, and killing his invented "enemy."

Terrorism, crime and cruelty have been the plan all along.

"... it has taken decades for Republicans to finally have this much power."
There is a reason it has taken decades for Republicans to finally have this much power. Remind when they were last removed from government. It has to be done again. They are inhuman. The entire party needs to be abolished.

Imagine that! Published accounts in archives of Boston newspapers from the 1760s read remarkably similar to what's happening in Minneapolis.

Patriots did not tolerate what happened then & we won't stand by and watch it happen today!
ICYMI: I looked through a published archive of Boston newspapers from the 1760s, when British troops were stationed in the city.

The accounts read remarkably similar to what's happening in Minneapolis.

Two cities under siege
Remarkably similar scenes from Boston and Minneapolis, 260 years apart, show a federal government betraying its founding principles.

"The biggest risk in this moment is ..."
The biggest risk in this moment is something sociologists call “symbolic compliance.”

That’s when an institution that is violating civil rights gives the public just enough symbolic victories that accountability efforts lose steam before there has been any meaningful change.

"... get Stephen Miller fired". I firmly believe that #StephenMiller is a racist who is the mastermind responsible for all the #CRUELTY perpetrated by the #DonaldTrump administration. cmm
I continue to believe that the fastest way to get Stephen Miller fired is to convince Trump that Miller's ICE operations are what cost him the Nobel Peace Prize.

While the lieutenants in this administration are incompetent liars like their leader President #DonaldTrump, I want to know what is happening to trigger-men Jonathan Ross & so far unknown agent still on duty who actually killed Renee Good & Alex Pretti? When will they face justice? Why not on leave?

if bovino is out and conservatives are turning on noem then there is a real opportunity to demand that miller resign too.

"Shutting the government down ... seems pretty reasonable, IMO!" right now.
Shutting the government down because the president’s thug army keeps murdering American citizens for no reason seems pretty reasonable, IMO!

I appreciate those out there protesting at great risk to their lives however i think the nation needs to grind this economy to a dead stop.
It's something everyone can do safely. No spending on ANYTHING but absolute necessities.
I understand some shut ins can not do this but very many of us can.

"We all must reject this."
Left hand on the ground trying not to hit the pavement; right hand still holding a cell phone. ICE person standing with a one handed grip pointing his gun right at the man’s head.

There is nothing about this that we should accept. We all must reject this. This is our government, & they want this
