#NoKings Charlottesville VA

Ready to stand up for the country I thought I knew

Anyone else think Trump's attack on LA was a setup? He knows the No Kings protest is on Saturday, and so he triggers a minor incident in LA and launches a massive military overreaction in response and then issues threats. Suggests the protest is vitally important. Get out there and make history.

@michellesea.bsky.social Injust saw this post Be careful my friend

“Protesting does nothing” Not true. A massive, nationwide rally on #june14 will- - detract attention from our dictator’s birthday parade - embolden our representatives to fight more aggressively. - show the world we are not all fascists. - show support for those being targeted by Trump.

🏳️‍🌈 Happy Pride Month ! Ben Cline may not like our diversity but Staunton appreciates and welcomes it! Good article on celebrations and activities this month throughout the region! augustafreepress.com/news/staunto... We are better together!

🙏 Thanks Ben Cline for voting for this Budget Bill that harms kids, families, pregnant women, the working poor, nursing home residents, many disabled by removing their healthcare.

🗡️ We all know that Ben Cline has been ignoring the constituents of District 6. If he's not representing us, then who is he representing? Turns out Ben has a voting record that matches 100% with the Heritage Foundation - the organization responsible for Project 2025. It's time to #deClinethe6th.

Thanks you Susan @susanjstone.bsky.social !
