One thing we have two weeks to do: Debunk Stephen Miller's lies that the invasions have ever been primarily about deporting the worst of the worst. Another thing: Show that w/GOP consent, Trump has SHIFTED govt spending from nice things like VA care (&cancer cures) to pay goons who shoot VA nurses.

🇺🇸 No Kings follows the American tradition of peaceful protest. People are using their First Amendment rights to speak out against the Trump regime's anti-freedom. Republicans are lying because they know the truth: if we show up to vote in 2026, they’re toast.

Grijalva: The frustration for me is that it seems as if Speaker Johnson is not willing to swear me in because our politics are a little different, or because I’m going to be the 218th signer—he can just continue to drag this along with no end in sight. That is not a foundation of our democracy.

Remember, this is what led to the arrest of Newark Mayor Ras Baraka (which led to the arrest of Congresswoman LaMonica McIver): the city's concerns that the building was not inhabitable. After that, inmates escaped thru a drywall exterior wall.
