This Saturday, rain is expected at Trump’s lame authoritarian parade, possibly even thunderstorms. On top of that, there are more than 2,100 anti-Trump protests planned across America—and at least 45 events scheduled in 15 other countries.

Christy Walton backs the No Kings movement and peaceful protests. While she owns 1.9% of Walmart stock, she has no role in company decisions. She co-hosted a fundraiser for Kamala Harris and gave over $700,000 in political donations last year.

We may disagree on many things, but we stand together on the fundamentals.

We are relearning the meaning of “solidarity.” This is absolutely vital.

Any soldier at Fort Bragg shouting "Hooah!" in support of a draft-dodging wannabe dictator while echoing his lies — you’ve violated your oath, the Soldier’s Creed, abandoned the Army Values, & turned your back on everything the uniform represents.

1. Trump has publicly and privately fantasized about deploying the military on US soil against protesters for years.

In LA, with little justification, he has made those dreams a reality, violating longstanding democratic norms.

He has manufactured a crisis.

Let's review the history.

The arrest of Judge Dugan is part of the five-alarm fire for our democracy

Prosecuting a judge for how she runs her courtroom is an attack on democracy

Judges Gertner & Luttig explain exactly why her arrest is a slippery slope for all our freedom

Beyond judicial independence, this prosecution threatens public trust in judicial system and in its ability to access courthouses without fear.

Republicans BURIED a line in their "big beautiful bill" that would help Trump officials ignore court orders.

One problem? It violates the Senate's rules.

I’m going to fight to strip this provision out. And we need everyone in the fight against this bill.

it is imperative that the media and the dem party begin to explain that whats happening in LA is what “mass deportation” is, there is no way to do it without jackbooted government thugs kicking down doors and ripping your neighbors and friends from their family
Wow. New CBS poll finds majority (55%) supports the *general goal* of deportations, but a bigger majority (56%) dislikes how Trump is carrying them out. And 63% want due process.

Again, we need a better discourse around public opinion on immigration, as I've argued:

It is completely unlawful for ICE to turn away members of Congress like this. The law could not be more clear; no member of Congress may be denied access to a facility where ICE is detaining someone, and they cannot be required to schedule in advance. Surprise inspections must be surprise.
If ICE were acting entirely within the law and maintaining good conditions in all its facilities, they would not be turning Congresspeople away.

But they clearly aren't.

Whats happened in LA over the weekend is pathetic. Once again we see the commander in chief agitating and escalating shit.

On another note, it doesn't seem like dems were "overreacting" when we said the fate of democracy depends on this election.
