Lesson 13 of "On Tyranny": Practice corporeal politics. Find your No Kings protest, June 14th.
Text card, reads: "Practice corporeal politics. Power wants your body softening in your chair and your emotions dissipating on the screen. Get outside. Put your body in unfamiliar places with unfamiliar people. Make new friends and march with them."

Colbert: Mike Johnson and Russ Vought have said no one is going to lose their Medicaid. Is that something you would describe as true? NC Gov. Josh Stein: Untrue. I would use true, but I would add "un" in front of it. You cannot take $700 billion out of the system without people losing coverage.

Erasing Harvey Milk’s name is disgusting, blatant discrimination—and during Pride Month to boot. He served the U.S. Navy and his country honorably, and he was assassinated while serving the public and fighting for LGBTQ+ rights. Hegseth should be ashamed of himself and reverse this immediately.
A headline by Military.com reads: "Hegseth Orders Navy to Strip Name of Gay Rights Icon Harvey Milk from Ship"

Why 3.5? The number 8.5 million is the estimated number of voters it would take to bring about change through nonviolent protest. If 3.5% of eligible voters — 8,575,000 people — engage in nonviolent protests, we WILL bring about meaningful change! www.lwv.org/uniteandrise
