Denver showing what Democracy looks like #50501Movement #HandsOff

250 years ago today America began its march toward independence at the Battles of Lexington and Concord. The battles marked “No Kings Day, Part I.” Today millions of Americans will take part in “No Kings Day, Part II.”

The US has roughly 1/4 the population of China and yet our GDP is 1.6 times China's. Maybe tariffs aimed at returning our technologically driven economy, back to a simple manufacturing hub, isn't the best economic move. 🤷‍♀️

Sociologist Michael Mann’s definition of fascism: “the pursuit of a transcendent and cleansing nation-statism through paramilitarism.”

We traded Europe for a guy that builds concentration camps for profit.

Absolutely proud of you all! HUG! So far, 3.1 million protesters counted today — that’s nearly 1% of the U.S. population! Photos are flooding social media everywhere. Still waiting on more numbers to come in.

Never a better time to make good trouble than with 800 new friends. I'm so proud of our little town.

Hands Off Highlands Ranch, CO with a turnout of over 800 people!

I tell my students the 14th Amendment is without a doubt the sexiest Amendment of the 27. Its protections extend to citizens and residents alike, guaranteeing due process to everyone, regardless of status. On American soil, due process of the law is a natural right.

When teaching the collapse of the Soviet Union, I have students read President George H.W. Bush's Address to the Nation (12/26/91). Reviewing it before class today, it held extra meaning.

Tariffs for penguins but not Putin?

"The EU, like the United States, has generally low tariffs; the average tariff it charges on US goods is less than 3 percent. So where does [Trump's] 39 percent number come from? I have no idea." (Economist Paul Krugman) open.substack.com/pub/paulkrug...

She's literally abducted off the street. That's fascism.

Listening to Lauren Boebert's tele Town Hall tonight: Constituent: "What are you doing to stop the overreach of an unelected billionaire?" Boebert: "There is no overreach. He's the richest man in the world. I do not support unelected bureaucrats."

So…lock them up?

Mary Beth Tinker (Tinker v. Des Moines) virtually visited my classes today. She talked about free speech and student empowerment, which the world sure could use more of right now. "You're making history either way. By acting, you get to choose which side you want to be on."

every person involved in this needs to be in prison

We were there!!! Great speeches from Bernie and AOC. Time to fight like hell for our Democracy.

We must stand together against authoritarianism. We showed up today Denver 34,000 strong.

30,000 strong! Denver showed up today to fight the oligarchy. #taxtherich

Truer words were never spoken.

Thanks to Bondi Teslas are uninsurable. "Auto insurance policies will cover a car that is damaged or destroyed in a terrorist attack only if the policyholder has purchased optional comprehensive coverage..." www.iii.org/article/unde...

Thou shalt not let anti-science imbeciles destroy the Department of Education so everyone can be as stupid as they are.

Witnessing a bunch of high school dropouts arguing with lawyers and Constitutional scholars about Constitutional Law is both comical and terrifying because they are so convinced of knowledge and intellect they do not possess.

This is disgusting. Republicans care only about defense contractors, not people. www.bbc.com/news/article...
