Mebounds don't count

We need the right people to hammer this point. It is surely the quickest way to get Hegseth out. "His" Army couldn't be bothered to even try.

You might see DTLA and "only" 20K, but that is actually good. Groups spread out in the hundreds or thousands in every little Burg or Burb or...whatever the hell LA County has, takes a lot more resources to police, and more importantly, to "counter protest." It also shows that WE are everywhere.

Seconded

We’re honored to report that over 11 million showed up for today’s No Kings protest, and totals are still coming in. Just… wow. WOW 😮! There’s nothing more to say.

This is so humiliating that Stephen Miller is in a chair in a corner somewhere watching

I'm willing to bet he doesn't even know. There's not going to be open public seating anywhere near that stand anyway. This is just how he ALWAYS looks when it's not "his show."

I mean, at least at the Tour de France and any time they do some display in Britain, they have jets fly over trailing tricolor smoke.

Nazi Lives Don't Matter

How are we to know anyone actually escaped? They've shown they have pretty shitty record keeping, so who knows if those "four missing persons" even exist. Or worse, they shipped them off and don't know.

Listen, like it or not, we now have reasonable doubt to "squeeze first, question last" under the principle of Castle Doctrine. But for now, ONLY under Castle Doctrine.

The East Coast has shown up, 2.4 million and counting, with massive turnouts in small towns across the country. Shoutout to the Carolinas, Georgia, and Ohio for showing up strong!

Malcom X was right. And a bigger threat. Which is why they shot him first.

No kings

Suddenly my interest in the Club World Cup is also piqued....

Update: Democratic House Speaker Emerita Melissa Hortman and her husband Mark have died after they were shot at their home in Brooklyn Park.

Two Democratic lawmakers in Minnesota, State Senator John Hoffman and State Representative Melissa Hortman, were shot in their own homes overnight.

Remember to record EVERYTHING tomorrow. Film the massive crowds, film any clashes with agitators (do not take their bait), film law enforcement breaking the law. Plaster social media, make it undeniable that there are more of us than them.

Will repeat what I posted the other day; Newsom and Bass need to get that GI Assistance Line phone number plastered all over the areas they are sleeping and 'working.'

Once saw Rami Malek running the sound system at an off-campus house party.

FWIW, the correct answer to the question asked of Trump the other night is Thénardier. I mean, that was a gimme. But y'all were too focused on his non answer.

If you're out at a public demonstration, use all your strength to stay calm and peaceful. If you're at your own home, "castle doctrine."

Shout out to the Grammys for adding a "Country Music Participation Trophy" category.

Please take some time this evening to study the Civil Rights marches of the 60s. People completely dehumanized and brutalized, but they persisted in their peaceful demonstration because the endgame was most important. There will be a time to "strike back." But this isn't it.
