Trump looks like an utter jackass. Marching soldiers like toys when a real war is going on. Attacking peaceful, productive Americans and dehumanizing them. Now an evil political assassination. He cannot and will not perform his job. Those who voted for him should forever hang their heads in shame.

And now, we resist.

King Day is 1/20. And it is the inauguration of DJT.

They represent the furthest poles of American faith. The universality, compassion & liberation of King stands in prophetic judgment against the exclusivism, cruelty & authoritarianism of the “Christian” nationalism of DJT.
