Yes, great job on Matt's part. He showed compaasion for the officer(s) who clearly overreacted and were in bully mode. That took alot of self control and skill on Matt's part to de-escalate officer in fight mode.

Right on Sister!

Proud to have been in this crowd estimated at 70000. This is Cal Anderson Park in Seattle. During my hours there I never saw a police presence. Right on!

Raskin: You are not our king, and we are not your subjects. We will never be your subjects. All of us born here on this land are citizens and your executive order is nothing but bad graffiti on the Constitution, and we're going to wash it off today

So proud to be a part of this amazing morning. Location ocean beach San Francisco #nokings

Yes.

Peace and Goodwill in Sacramento, the Capitol of California # No Kings# Solidarity#Resilient

Our highway patrol and police were friendly this morning at "no kings" rally and we thanked them. Sacramento State Capitol, West steps.

Hello from Berlin where a few hundred Americans are outside the embassy, currently reading aloud from the Declaration of Independence. #nokings

Let's dance and make a collective intention for rain! Strong rain!

Padilla models nonviolence. Thanks to him for asking questions. We have that right! As Padilla said, imagine how this administration treats the vulnerable.

Yes, chump is reverse Robin Hood. The rich gain and the poor lose. So wrong!

If they can do that to a United States senator... think about how little they care about what they do to us.

Trump’s bill blocks millions of families from the full Child Tax Credit—just to give billionaires another break.

Justice bursting forth today. #rose #garden #writing community

One of the greatest deceptions of our time is the false narrative that we should be more concerned about a poor person misusing the welfare system or an immigrant being here illegally than we are about the ultra wealthy abusing the system and cruel people having unchecked power over all of us.

This helps give perspective.

The addiction of greed is hurting us all.

Peace to your brave hearts #solidarity for #social justice

We must stay vigilant. Thank you Professor Reich for keeping us on our toes.

Dr Annie Andrews sounds great to me

We live close by. Love the WPA garden. Your lotus blossom photos are luscious.

Simply but eloquently stated.

Yes. Agreed! Act with urgency!

Excellent!

Love AOC! Such Courage!)

This diminishes our democracy. Where are the checks and balances? Where is the collaboration?

Friday afternoon at the Capitol in Sacramento, near international rose peace garden. Peace comes with justice. "Impeach the Leech!" Lots of agreement this afternoon.

I so agree. Trump is a con artist. Tell us the truth!

We cannot allow the indefensible actions of our government to eclipse our overwhelming solidarity with the Ukrainian people. sign.moveon.org/petitions/to...

Backed by "pro life" people, of course.

Thank you to everyone who shared their story today on the Capitol steps or online. This is how we will stop cuts to Medicaid, this is how we will stop Trump and congressional Republicans devastating agenda, this is how we will rise.

I was wondering about the classification of this apparent sleepy, dull minded creature. "Blue suited twit" fits. Any talk of Jesus' message of love and peace seems not to interest him. I also enjoyed the comment, "first time dt has slept next to his wife in years."

The trickle down theory does not work! Power to the People!

BINGO!

And Christianity isn't about "We are number one." It is about a preferential option for the poor." From the words of Jesus (who never intended to start Christianity, by the way), "whatever you do to the least among us, you do unto me." Christianity is about service and caring for the vulnerable.

This is a great story. Today, Iceland is progressive and prosperous due to female leadership.

Yeah, having your eye liner straight, Pete, really helps with national security.

Sounding my chimes off my porch on Weller Way in Sacramento.

Speak up Lisa! We can't hear you. Louder please!

THREE EQUAL BRANCHES OF GOVERNMENT. It’s in our Constitution and at the very heart of our democracy. Article 3 establishes the judicial branch. It’s the job of judges to determine if the actions of the Administration violate our laws. Full. Stop. That’s how our democracy works.
