I have this deep primal urge to locate all of Pete Hegseths social media accounts and post this photo with the comment ‘what were you expecting with President Musks DUI hiring practices?’ Over and over and over until ALL of my fingers fall off. Then I’ll start using my toes.

They are exposed.the masses are getting pissed.they are going hungry.they just lost their retirements,AGAIN.Y'all better do something with ur boy.
We're ready. The official turnout from yesterday's protest marches (April 5, 2025 Hands Off) is 5.2 million, keep sharing that number. Most media is saying thousands. Mark you calendars for April 19 for the next one. The snowball has started to roll. The snowflakes have become a blizzard.
I was pissed at CBS this am for saying tens of thousands -- wth -- tens of thousands were in protests in just each of the major cities -- could have said hundreds of thousands, or millions!
@indivisible.org is one of the main organizers of Hands Off on April 5—and many other successful events. Keep on protecting democracy by visiting their website and learning what you can do to help. 🇺🇸 https://indivisible.org/
These signs are great! I wouldn't be able to pick just one winner! They all just made my day and I'm still laughing at how perfect so many of them are. Great job people! You are all winners!
It truly was inspiring! When I told my mom I was moving to Indiana from Hawaii, she nearly keeled over. INDIANA?? But she now spends much of the year here with me and we’re doing a good job of getting in good trouble together.
Jennifer, please learn your facts and don’t fall prey to the same types of tik tok headlines that got the USA this nazi regime. If you still want to spread Jew hate after you do learn the facts then that’s your prerogative but at least you will be better informed. Look up Mosab Hassan Yousef.
Not just MAGA… DNC as well. That’s why 5 million dems sat home for the general election. They couldn’t vote for genocide and now we have Trump again. Thanks Chuck and Hakeem!
His display and treatment of women as objects to use and abuse is the point. He is nothing but a malignant narcissistic set on destroying the Constitution. Fuck him and his regime.
A serious problem requires serious politics. Trump is not an isolated problem but represents the interests of a large section of the capitalist class in crisis, internationally. Only the working class fighting for socialism can have the power or perspective needed. https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2025/04/05/jkky-a05.html

In Romanian, when someone throws stupid tantrums hurting their own interests just for the sake of being an a hole, we say they hit their own testicles with an adze (carpentry tool, looks like a sharp axe hammer thing). The Romanian word for adze is Tesla.
I spent three weeks touring Romania with my college choir back in 1975. The country was GORGEOUS. The people, so friendly. The government, not so much.
Maybe we'll soon do to Trump what you folks did to Nicolae Ceaușescu and his wife....
How an earth can someone male or female who is an adjudicated rapist become President? I just don’t understand why Trump was even allowed to run. The man has many failed businesses and filed for bankruptcy several times. The man is a criminal and a complete idiot.
I wish I understood this better. Truly ...I don't know enough about Israel. I know US international policy is sinister/evil. Need to know more ...tended to have sympathy for Jewish people needing a homeland after WWII. No longer feel that... but how are they a proxy.
Washington is supplying the means (firepower)for the Israeli government to commit aggression to its neighboring countries(all of them) the Washington don't like.
Israel is no different than hamas, hezbolah, houthis, etc....
Beautiful area. This past visit was my first time at the MINT Museum so I’m semi-familiar. Had lunch at SweetGreen first (we used to eat at SG often in California).
Waiting for another election cycle is not enough hoping for the democrats to do something is not enough. Secede from the union or this madness along with everything else will only repeat in the future
"Anyone who thinks protests, lawsuits, and lawfare will deter President Trump must have been sleeping under a rock for the past several years,"

Don't need to change Trumpy's (mostly absent) mind. Need to get enough reps and senators to jump ship, and same with SCOTUS (already seeing that with Barrett and Roberts)
And anyone with a brain who can read between the lines will realize that what she really said is "the elected president of the united states doesn't care about the will of the electorate. He's going to do what he wants anyway." This is an admission of guilt. Not a statement of strength.
She's newly married to a guy who's 60 - more than twice her age. He knocked her up well before they married; in fact, she had the kid some months before they actually tied the knot. He's got a receding hairline and is trying not to get a gut.
We ought to make book on how long it's going to last.
The only Trump sign I saw while traveling back to MA from NC on Friday was in Wilkes Barre. That’s in stark contrast to what I used to see on this trek.
My dad used to call PA Pennsyltucky and that was when he was alive 45 years ago. Times haven’t changed PA much (I lived outside of Philly).
I see a few signs in support of Yam Tits, still. But people aren't as loud about their support anymore, because those of us who hate him aren't shy about it anymore.

post from UTAH. Can't get much redder than Utah and they came out in droves. They see what's going on and are acting on it.
Search for "Hands Off Rally" in Bluesky; you'll see lots of red towns and cities participated. Looks like trump voters are getting smacked by the chaos and the loss of savings/jobs/taxpayer-funded services/due process/museums/healthcare; the list goes on and on and I only have 8 characters left to t
To put a face and a name to the 4 servicemen whom trump decided weren't even worth a salute by him, is heartbreaking.
It hits home when you see them and not just reading that 4 died. Sincere sympathies to their families.
The hypocrisy- the blatant hypocrisy- is something I don’t think I will ever get over. By their actions, they have answered the question of the great lawyer Joseph N. Welch: “You've done enough. Have you no sense of decency, sir, at long last? Have you left no sense of decency?”
Take heart, you also inherit a tradition of the 2nd through 5th (maybe 6th, though '68 didn't involve forming a new Republic) revolutions. That spirit never left, from every French person I've known. Rely on your trusted friends and I believe you'll get through.
America died when Kellyanne Conway first used the phrase “alternative facts” on January 22, 2017, on NBC’s Meet the Press to defend Sean Spicer’s statements about Trump’s inauguration crowd.
The media didn’t say, “A synonym for Alternative Fact is ‘Lie’.”
Truth died that day and we never recovered.
They were talking out this when I was a kid 50+ yrs ago. Ridiculous that we are not using metric system. The only reason soda went to liters was so they could use it for shrinkflation.
What can I say. America 🤷🏽♀️. I also ran track and field and also utilized the metric system 😌 so I’m a rare American that speaks 2 (math) languages 😃! 🤣😆😅😂
Nah, I spent my junior year in London. It only took me 9 months to start incorporating the "u" -- colour, favour, humour, honour --- AND to put a strikethrough thru my "7's". And I'm still doing it 50 years later. I use the metric system interchangeably when I'm sewing. It shouldn't take 100 years.
Plus, im not dumb enough to take financial advice from grifters, im taking on credit while the market literally crashes. Im a creditor's wet dream, and ill use their greedy maws to do my work, not theirs
I vote with my dollar, fiercely. All my credit (of which im using less that 1/4 available) is being directed towards locally owned businesses that reflect my values. I find so many words in those oatmilk lattes, the least i could do is give them my dollar now.
Hearing anything from that man makes me sick to my stomach. He is rich and entitled, the rest of us work to keep to the lights on at home and in the country. Sending love
It is very sad, even frightening, to see the similarities between the growth of the Nazi party in Germany in the 1930s and what's happening in the United States right now. My mother, along with all her Jewish classmates, was kicked out of high school in Germany because of her religion.
My parents survived the hunger winter in Holland in 1945. Americans dropped food to save them. They came to America in 1957 and my dad served in the American military stationed in Germany, post-war.
My dad is 89 now and after the election, he told me he'll be okay. 🥹💔
Thank you for mentioning Manzanar. I was not familiar with that particular American concentration camp, 1 of 10 where Japanese immigrants and their American born children were held during World War II.
Definitely another dark part of hidden American history!! https://www.nps.gov/manz/index.htm
I've been thinking about this a lot because both of my parents were German Jewish refugees. I'm glad they're not still around to witness #dtrump 's destruction of our country.

I worked on a sign for hours yesterday then woke up this morning at 4:30 am inspired by, of all things, penguins. Th

In all fairness to dogs, I bet they all hate him. dt would be the one guy in the room a dog would snarl and growl at and try to bite....every time. Dogs sense evil far better than humans do.
Next (this week): The SAVE Act says you can’t vote if your name on your federal ID (passport) doesn’t match your birth certificate. Did you change your name when you married? 65 million women did. Call your Congressperson today. Stop the #SaveAct #votingrights #womensrights #resist #handsoff
The election was not legitimate. I've heard him say out loud three or four times "musk did something" so he could win. There's even video on Snopes where Trump said it was rigged. He said it out loud.
After his fake ass assassination he said "his sons were great shots"
Don't believe him.
Best and worst part is it hardly matters. The evidence was there to say he shouldn't be allowed within spitting distance of office before that election. The important thing lacking was and is political will. It won't come from the GOP, who are and have been complicit to the elbows.
I actually believe the election was legitimate. To think otherwise is to contribute to the ‘institutions have failed’ narrative. The assassination stuff is irrelevant. The US doesn’t get a free pass. The majority of voters who bothered to vote, voted for Trump (for reasons I will never understand).
Autogolpe is a form of coup. It's what Trump's administration is doing, using elected power as a wedge to get access to do things they were not actually granted authority or permission to do.
TIL autogolpe aka autocoup https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-coup. Deeply surprised Chancellor Hitler made the list once and President Trump made it twice :eyeroll:
Fuck that's a gross photo, mister poo pants, neither that nor his humiliating the disabled on stage cost him his public appeal, Americans really were the worst. That interview he did with Ali G. where he said it was The Flintstones and humans were trading rocks hundreds of millions of years ago/WTF?
Ha! This one's mine. Crazy to see it's already making the rounds online with how many good ones that we had floating around today. Glad people are enjoying it! Portland, OR had an awesome turnout 💪
So true. At one point, in Boston, I was pressed in so tight with people my claustrophobia started to kick in.
Then I breathed a sigh of relief at the thought there were all these wonderful, caring people who came out to give me a hug! Well, kinda. You get the idea.
One of the things I witnessed (and LOVED) yesterday was how many elderly were out there, with canes, wheelchairs, etc!! Our seniors are out there advocating and fighting for the rest of us. I am so inspired by and applaud their advocacy! ❤️
Indeed!!!
Boomers stood up for the shit show they voted for by 50%! When you know better you speak up!!!
Now the GenX group needs to show up… they are engrained with 80’s & 90’s propaganda.
Yes, most of the ones at the event I attended were 50-70+. There were a few families with kids, but it was almost all retirement or near retirement age. There was an elderly veteran walking with a cane there. Love to see it!
We deliberately planned an accessible seating area in Boston, and it was completely full of elderly people as well as people of all ages with mobility challenges. It was a great mix of people of all ages where I was!
I can understand how they feel. Gen X has distain for the boomers for the way that they have controlled abortion. Women war everything about the world. Gen X continued with a lot of that. The 20 somethings see all the bad and are disillusioned.
Thank you for being there!! Can I ask you, what do you think this country needs to do to help 20-somethings to understand the urgency and seriousness of what we are facing?
Excuse me but we seniors are wondering where the youth are!! Take a look & you'll see in every protest, youth are the minority. It's a point of discussion in so many meetings. You'd think Choice & Student Loan Forgiveness would've motivated youth to vote but they didn't & it's pissing us off.
That’s bc the youth didn’t vote for him. The white women/men 50+ did..
And now they regret it. Only bc their finances are impacted. They voted for Trump bc they are selfish and they are NOW protesting because they are selfish… only watching out for themselves. I’m glad they are, but let’s be real.
I don't think the ones that voted for him are the ones in these protests. Remember only 1/3 rd of voters voted for him. The shame is that 1/3rd didn't vote. I hope we activate them.
I hear you 💯! Louder voices need to meet them where they are at; I don't have the answer but I know in our groups and local chapters we can all collectively come up with plans/actions to address. Agree, there needs to be direct and impactful communications to our youth and younger demographics
Maybe we spent so much time trying to break down barriers, open doors, battle the endless wars that were a backdrop to our youth, & on campuses where protests and classes coexisted, that they don't know a world where people aren't seen & heard. We've seen it; we see it coming again. They don't.
Repubs are Christian nationalizing schools through private school vouchers leaving public schools foundering.
The draft motivated my generation's youth to organize for enviro regs & civil/women's rights.
The gains are now lost.
Seniors are tired.
What will light youth's fire?
Another draft?
Wow, kids just can't fathom that their freedoms truly cZn be taken away. I had not really thought that the fear and worry we all have just seems fanatical or surreal to them
This Michigander is so proud of all the folks who participated but I'm especially in awe of our seniors who know how important this is bc they've been thru this before. Thank You!
This is the way!
I watched a number of older people with rolling walkers, canes, wheelchairs, in the middle of things, working their way along.

Omas gegen Rechts (Grannies against the Right)is a Bürgerinitiative (initiative of citizens) in Germany & Austria. Founded in Vienna in 2017, in protest at extreme right-wing political positions. a German initiative was founded in 2018.
Wiki:
In Germany and Austria, the Omas gegen Rechts appear at various demonstrations and events. Pink or colorful knitted hats, so-called "pussyhats", serve as a distinguishing mark. According to the organisation, the caps are "signs of non-violent resistance and solidarity".
Jane Goodall is the founder of the Jane Goodall Institute and the Roots & Shoots programme and has worked extensively on conservation and animal welfare issues. As of 2022, she is on the board of the Nonhuman Rights Project.
So many of us feel downtrodden, powerless, and left out in the cold. Trump has treated virtually everybody like helpless animals, with no concern for their welfare. No wonder that people relate to the penguins that Trump so stupidly tariffed.
Thank God. So the rest of the world can see we hate him, too. We are heartbroken at the rupture of our friendships with our allies, and pray y’all know he does NOT represent average Americans. 💔

Use the 5 Calls app! It immediately links you to your Senators and Rep and provides scripts for whatever issues you want to express your rage against! Use it often!!
Absolutely! From the comfort and safety of your home. Tell your rep how policy A is hurting your community/their constituents. Ask for their plan to fix it. Ask for a reply. They have to document every call and every email they get. Flood their offices!
Bloody liberals! They think their education makes them better than anyone else.
That’s why we need to defund education & get the slaves back in place working for the rich WM overlords.
