"No Kings must break through to normies, independents, and Trump voters feeling remorse...Size is persuasion...If 100,000 people show up for Trump’s parade, but 5,000,000 people turn out across the country for No Kings rallies, who looks strong and who looks weak?"

Our military should not be used as pawns or made to become the ghestoppo! Support our troops by allowing them to be human. Their commander in chief is😵‍💫
I’ll be there, will you?

No kings. No cults. Just the Constitution—and the people who hold the line.

Will be interesting to see which congressional candidates in competitive primaries show up tomorrow. Kat is the first I've seen actively promoting - anyone see other good examples?

Funny thing - @leahgreenberg.bsky.social is talking No Kings Day on CNN at 9:45ET and I'm talking No Kings Day on MSNBC at 9:45ET...so make your choice, tune in, and let's build some more momentum headed into No Kings Day!

Kristi Noem, Dr. Phil, and ICE went to this woman’s home in Huntington Park, CA at 6am to make a spectacle and you want me to be satisfied with @governor.ca.gov flowery words? Watch. It’s disgusting. Noem belongs in prison.

DISTURBING: ICE in Las Vegas threw teenagers against a wall, handcuffed them, scraped up their faces, bruised their arms — just for looking “illegal” while they were on their way home from a birthday party.

This is what cowardice looks like with a badge.

My daughter is in her 4th year of a biology major. Plans for a doctorate. She may have to move to Europe to get funded. This country will alienate our allies, we'll have an exodus of highly educated people, and we'll turn into a 3rd world country.

I also can't print any of the documents from there, except by making an online PDF. Everything else is printing fine... Hmm

The Democratic Party believes in a trusted and regulated government, while the other is intent on public services failing; thus completing the longstanding neoliberalist goal of complete privatization, no oversight, continued handouts, reversing all post war progress for greed. youtu.be/h_QuZ3Gc0sc

Well damn... We need him in the Senate! Run for president later!!! Sigh
We love you @petebuttigieg.bsky.social
He is not satisfied with running for the Michigan Senate!

Buttigieg has announced that he will not run for the Senate in 2026.

What he released shows serious intent for the 2028 election and candidacy under the Democratic Party. He knows the path to victory in 2028 will be favorable.

I expect 2026 will be a real election (the Trump admin is ignoring Congress, so they won’t care much who controls it) and 2028 won’t be (they already tried a coup, and that was before beating the justice system).

So I increasingly see 2026 as the last chance to get more Dems who will fight in 2028.
Alright fuck it. Who’s launching the democratic version of the Tea Party? I’m in.

This is why they're not afraid to do whatever they want. DOGE has taken control of the systems in almost every department. There's a reason why they lifted the laws around election interference from foreign nations. What can we do? If there are no more fair elections there's no way to stop them
We'll be in a Military State by the end of the year. Probably before voting day in November. Martial Law will be how he gets around the voting issue. If not this November, definitely before the 2026 election. Can't have GOP losing seats
March 19, 2025 at 9:42 AM
Anyone think that the reason Trump and the Republicans don't care what we think is because there aren't going to be any more fair elections? How much data has Elon musk collected and corrupted?

This!! I did it, you can too. Google your district, look up your congress person, and email them. They need to use the power they have, rather than worrying about taking the blame for something they'll be blamed for anyway. #action

This week either ends with a shutdown or a bipartisan act of congress. This is my attempt to summarize what the GOP is doing, what leverage the Dems have, and all the ways this could play out. As always, we end the newsletter with lots of practical action items!

I know people who cheer for cutting social programs—not to save money, but because they believe some lives just aren’t worth saving. Social Darwinism with a eugenics twist isn’t rare. That warning bell rang before, but when cruelty gets the green light, it spreads fast.
