hey everybody stay calm but just FYSA there are FIFTEEN HUNDRED No Kings events on the map right now for June 14th

I'm attending No Kings's event, “No Kings: Marshals Training” - sign up now to join me! www.mobilize.us/nokings/even...

On Flag Day, we're reclaiming patriotism. 🗽 Join Indivisible’s No Kings Day of Defiance—a nationwide push to say loud and clear: we are a democracy, not a dictatorship. No immunity. No coronation. No kings. 👑❌ #NoKings #FlagDay www.mobilize.us/noki...

Cool! @ricksteves.bsky.social, who has a lot of experience telling people where to go, is telling people to go to NoKings.org. See y'all in the streets on 6/14.

I'm taking action on June 14 to remind Trump and his enablers that America has No Kings. Join me in Evanston to reject authoritarianism and show the world what democracy really looks like. app.sosha.ai/s/Bh4ptOHI

Here’s what Democrats need to be saying right now: Donald Trump wants to make it illegal to oppose Donald Trump. He wants to end freedom of speech and for the government to punish anyone who speaks out against him. He’s a tyrant and a criminal and is trying to overthrow the constitution.

Want to join me for this Food

@jafzelius.bsky.social Did you and/or Nils go to the protest today? We did.

Chicago’s protest was well attended. Here are a few of my favorite signs.

Congratulations, Ms. Johnson. “I think the coolest thing I've learned is that oysters actually serve as a filter in the water. I did not know that. And they actually can serve as a home to over 300 species in the water,” said Johnson. #science #innovation #biology #nature #Mississippi

Finished this sweater this week.

Rivers on fire. Toxic air. No one wants to go back. But the White House is gutting protections that keep us safe—who benefits, besides polluters? Lies don’t justify poisoning out people. #TruthBrigade

A grassroots movement is calling on all Americans to abstain from shopping with major retailers tomorrow, February 28, as part of an “economic blackout.” I encourage you to join. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/boycott

Trump and his puppet master Musk went rogue and illegally froze billions of dollars of congressionally allocated funds, leaving many agencies and organizations scrambling. Even after this was overruled in court, nearly $1.9 billion remains unaccounted for. The people of Illinois demand answers.

Climate change is making plants less nutritious − that could already be hurting animals that are grazers

What we need right now! 👏👏👏

Musk aides gain access to sensitive Treasury Department payment system Would someone please explain to me why Elon should be able to access the Justice Department payment system? 🤷🏻‍♀️
