A Banksy-like poster of Sandwich Guy is popping up around D.C.

“When somebody writes the history of this period, that will definitely be one of the iconic images that comes out of it,” said one expert who specializes in graffiti and street art.
How a thrown sub made ‘Sandwich Guy’ a resistance icon in Trump’s D.C.
A DOJ employee was fired and charged with a felony after chucking a footlong at a federal agent. Now his likeness is a symbol --- and for sale on t-shirts.

Yes to this.
The only time an officer of the law should be able to work anonymously (given that our tax dollars pay their salaries) is when/if the employee is an undercover agent pulled away from normal duties to assist with another arm of the department.

Trump isn’t waiting for chaos—he’s engineering it. This National Guard move in LA isn’t about order. It’s bait. He wants a flashpoint big enough to justify invoking the Insurrection Act. Wake up. This is how power grabs start.

I'm going to start publicly calling out campaigns that text me because they bought my number from a list. Not just because I've run out of patience, but because if *I* am this annoyed, then I can't even imagine what it's doing to Democrats' reputation among casual voters.

But there is a new hope. We must band together and resist the dark side.

Do or do not. There is no try. #StarWarsDay

"Trump lost against the Maine governor. He lost against Perkins Coie. He loses 80% of cases in court. Which makes those who’ve capitulated look that much more foolish, because if they’d just fought back, they would've retained what they thought they'd lose and their dignity would still be intact."

Maine's governor promised she'd see Trump in court. She just declared victory.
