political press is doing a real disservice by basically not reporting the nuances of public opinion on deportations, and creating the appearance that most americans support the stephen miller-style gestapo tactics

Okay so I take it back this parade is amazing. Massive turnout every city to tell Trump to go fuck himself and meanwhile his big weird dictator parade is attended by two dozen rednecks, some people out for a picnic who don’t understand what’s happening, and a smattering of press.

Never. You showed up, stood up and spoke out. We will never cede the power of #wethepeople. Collectively our power is greater than any person seeking absolute authority. No turning back. #nokingsday #resist

Sen. Rand Paul: "I just never liked the idea of the parade because I grew up in the '70s and '80s and the only parades I can remember are Soviet parades or North Korean parades...Then there's the cost, I mean we're $2 trillion in the hole. I'm not for it."

Yesterday, millions of us reasserted the “We” in "We the people." We gained strength from our solidarity. We celebrated our numbers and our power. We will be steadfast. We will not cower to a dictator. We will win.

Rep. Seth Moulton: "Speaking as a veteran, I have to tell you the Marines don't want to be [in LA]. No one signs up to join the USMC to go against Americans on the streets of an American city....That's not why you sign up to serve the country."

What happened in Minnesota is the kind of heinous violation of humanity that should have generated bipartisan outrage and condemnation; an act of violence that disgusted all decent human beings. The problem is, the MAGA movement is inherently indecent. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/the-minnes...

There is no such thing as an overreaction with what has now happened. This is the line in the sand. Every red hat who supports killing Americans is a traitor.

To those who have not studied history, or forgot, or don’t believe history repeats, take a look. If you still don’t get the connection, then you will live the consequences of your actions, or inaction.

Reminder: Republicans are facilitating a massive transfer of wealth to the richest Americans while making cuts that would rip away healthcare and food from millions of people. It's Robin Hood in reverse.

Our able men and women in uniform swear an Oath to support the Constitution—they didn’t sign up to spend the weekend in a military parade to feed the insatiable narcissism of an incorrigible insurrectionist/dictator.

At any time during the kerfuffle with @padilla.senate.gov, DHS secretary Kristi Noem could have called off the goons She didn't because she's a performative cosplaying thug who lives for theater and feared the questions coming from CA's senior senator Alex Padilla

This is like when Russian oligarchs and, more recently, Chinese tech billionaires learned the difference between being a fantastically rich person and being in direct personal control of the state and its powers.
