Resist. Question everything.
So it seems to me that the Democrats are the ones who want peace, not the other way around. The truth always has a way of coming out.
Spot the difference.

The NYPD reported ZERO arrests at the No Kings rally.

Weird that over 100k "terrorists" and "hardened criminals" all got together and no one committed a crime.

Don’t listen to everything you hear: today’s No Kings peaceful, protests were about protecting Democracy and our Constitutuon.

This is such an iconic display of American love and pride 🇺🇸
At the end of my group’s march, we stopped and sang The Star Spangled Banner. We had two unexpected guests show up and circle around us. Yes, I cried. #NoKings 🇺🇸 🦅

Walking through the No Kings rally, and seeing it thousands of times over across the country, has me awestruck. So many Americans are ready to stand against corruption and fight for a lower cost of living. I’m honored to stand with them.

The Republicans' whole political gambit in this shutdown depends on the American public feeling pain—and blaming somebody else for it.

Their main argument is about health care, and it shows how desperate they are to dodge blame when prices spike for millions of Americans.

Truly a smashing success, that Alaska summit.

The president has no such authority to order how elections are conducted.

Unlike in Texas, where the GOP can pass new US House maps as soon as enough Democrats return from a nearly two-week absence denying them quorum, Gov. Gavin Newsom and California Democrats will need voters to approve new maps in a November referendum.

What Senator Sanders said.
The playbook of demagogues like Trump is to protect the Oligarchs by dividing us up based on race, religion, place of birth or sexual orientation.

They want us to hate each other while they laugh all the way to the bank.

Don’t fall for it.

Trump recently pardoned a Virginia sheriff who was convicted of bribery and let donors dodge gun laws and traffic tickets. It's another move by the Trump administration to reward political loyalty at the expense of public trust, @Jesspish.bsky.social writes.
