People are waking up. Democracy is not a God-given right. It is fought for, it is earned. We the People deserve to govern ourselves, but we have forgotten that it takes action that turns the tide. This was the largest peaceful protest in American History. A grand achievement & it's only the start.

Scrolling through comments of stress/outrage, I see many Democrats saying nothing is accomplished by protesting. Wrong. It gives people hope, generates connections for "what's next" actions, & creates community. What Republicans understood along with T---p is that messaging is everything. #NoKings2

I know it's infuriating, I know it seems like a losing battle, but to say that protests don't matter is incorrect. When fascist regimes rise, only 3.5% of the population protesting consistently can change the tide of authoritarianism. Our numbers are increasing. Resist & Join the fight. #NoKings2

Here is the full Jimmy Kimmel monologue from his return show.

I fully support Kimmel in every way. Disney tried to silence him but instead made him more popular and more powerful than ever. Disney lost $4 billion in the process. I didn't know the Disney executives were that stupid.

“One of the most depressing 35 mins of my life… the way we’ve decided to treat each other on these panels like we’re enemies…”

In which being on a panel (with Kari Lake) understandably bums out @timmiller.bsky.social , who says stop blaming entire groups for an individual’s deranged actions.

Wow… shocker, these clips didn’t age well.🙄 It was never about free speech with them. If they really wanted to honor Charlie Kirk, keep speech free. Kirk must be rolling in his grave. #liesliesandmorelies #magalies #resistfascism #jimmykimmel #freespeech #saveourdemocracy

What IS the proper thing to feel & say when someone who spends much of their time successfully influencing decision-makers to NOT take any responsible action to prevent completely preventable gun violence, including mass school shootings, himself becomes a victim of that gun violence?

🚨 We need to pay attention to what’s happening at the CDC. This isn’t bureaucratic drama — it’s a political takeover of our public health agency. The fallout will hit vaccines, outbreaks, and crisis response.

Our health is on the line. We can’t look away.
