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

"the state can just summarily imprison someone without filing charges or holding a trial" doesn't just overturn democracy it overturns 1000 years of common law, like throwing out the entire legal system entirely and saying all people in America are the state's property.

No one should be above the law, most especially the President. Ignoring a Supreme Court ruling to facilitate Kilmar Abrego Garcia's return isn't just cruel; it's unconstitutional. They're saying the quiet part aloud — if they get away with it now, they'll do it to anyone.

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

So impressed!

Just a reminder that in 2019, RFK Jr.'s anti-vaccine misinformation campaign helped cause a measles outbreak in Samoa that killed 83 people, mostly kids. Do you really want him to lead the Department of Health and Human Services?

I have some big plans.

WTH ? Why is the former guy (not yet our affliction till January 20th) at the opening of Notre Dame? Why not our present leaders? This is bad symbolism, a suspension of History!

Remember when Dan Quayle misspelled "potato" and everyone decided that was a good enough reason for him not to be president? We should be like that again.

Well, at least it got that one right.
