Gallego: "It's murder. It's very simple. If this president feels they are doing something illegally, then he should be using the Coast Guard. If this is an act of war, then you use our military and then you come and talk to us first. But this is murder ... it's disgusting."

About two thousand people showed up for No Kings @50501movement.bsky.social in Roanoke VA this afternoon: at both Washington Park and the intersections of Orange Ave and Gainsboro Rd. Fabulous, creative work! So much more enthusiasm from drivers than at any of the previous No Kings events.

Let us in. Hold ICE accountable. Tear down the fence.
This is what we are demanding from the Broadview ICE facility, and nothing less.
Our leaders can decide whether they stand with the people or with ICE. There is no middle ground.

85% of Gaza is on the brink of death due to starvation. Israel could let aid in at any moment. And some people (like these men tried to do with me on Friday) are still trying to justify this atrocity.
There is no justification. This could stop at any moment. End the blockade now.

ICE agents—without identification—are detaining people in plain clothes and wearing masks—stoking widespread fear, confusion, and distrust. This is not normal. And it’s not only cowardly, it’s dangero...

I will be damned if I allow a bunch of Confederate-waving January 6th apologists give the American people a lecture on flag waving.
There is ZERO reason to enter an argument about patriotism with people who still worship traitors to America 150+ years later.
