The No King protests represent a broad popular front. That’s exactly why the president’s allies are demonizing the organizers.
They’re teachers, nurses, Mennonites, and Marines. The Trump administration calls them antifa.

Quid Pro Qatar Quo
The Trump administration is REALLY allowing Qatar to build an air base in the US after they did a $5.5 billion golf resort deal with Trump and gave him a jet.
MAGA can take their ‘America First’ flags and wipe their asses with them. He is Trump First, and you are suckers.

Today in Politics Chat, I talked about how power sloshes around when a president is checked out, and noted that right now unelected officials like Stephen Miller are trying to grab it. But instead, We the People can take it back and create a better nation.

Trump has unleashed a gold rush among private prison companies taking on immigration detention.
In cash-strapped cities, like Walsenburg, Colorado, residents aren’t sure the money is worth it.

If you need hope right now I highly recommend talking to veteran activists—those who were alive for the Civil Rights era. Here’s some inspiration from one of them—the amazing Heather Booth.

Meanwhile, let's keep talking about the organized, systemic violence against girls and young women orchestrated by Epstein and ask what Trump knew and did. While also remembering Trump's sexual assault of E. Jean Carroll. And instigation of political violence, notably on January 6, 2021.
As the Epstein case shows, Trump’s Maga faithful care about only one kind of sex-crime victim | Emma Brockes
E Jean Carroll won her case, but in Trumpland the only sex offences that matter are committed by paedophiles with links to Democrats, says Guardian columnist Emma Brockes

Suspect was young, male, "blended in," meaning he was white. It would be so nice if the right waited for facts, but they and facts got divorced a long time ago.

Abuse like Epstein's proceeds w/ the premise that the victims are voiceless or can be shamed, intimidated, threatened, or discredited so iif they do try to speak up. Today they spoke up and were heard on national media. May their power continue, may accountability come for all the perpetrators.
