I think as many straight white people who can should attend whatever "No Kings" protest is near you. But use your head. Stay peaceful. Speak of TRUE patriotism and support of The Constitution, Freedom, and The American Way when asked. Convince people to register to vote AND TO VOTE DEM.
BE AWARE - Especially at No Kings

Undercover ICE, far right influencers, and agitators have
been spotted at other protests.

Mike Johnson has already started the narrative that the No
Kings protest is a "terrorist" event.

They WILL be trying to provoke violence. Whatever you do,
do NOT take the bait. Do not let others take the bait. Stay
peaceful, stay on message.

If you are interviewed, repeat the most unifying talking
points.

Do NOT lean into "antifa" labels. It is not a real organization.
Don't let their lies become real. Don't let it become a label.
Stick to saying the whole thing: We are against fascism and
violations of the constitution.

It's sort of fascinating how ALL OF THIS lawless tyranny is happening, all around us at all times, and never once have a gang of Second Amendment enthusiasts showed up with their God-given rifles to fend off the secret police. Not once. When they've been driven off it's been by the unarmed.

Tulsi Gabbard tweet from 2019: Trump says he doesn't want war with Iran, but that's exactly what he wants, because that's exactly what Saudi Arabia, Netanyahu, al-Qaeda, Bolton, Haley, and other NeoCons/NeoLibs want. That’s what he put first--not America.

I’m still sorta surprised at how thoroughly Target misunderstood its customer—or, at least, one of its most important customers. Relatively well-off, college-educated suburban women do a disproportionately massive amount of consumer spending, loved Target, and are statistically not Trump voters

I love paying TurboTax a few hundred bucks every year to figure out how much money I owe the government, which the government already knows, but won't tell me because TurboTax pays legislators to keep the government from telling me. 😻

The ruling comes after Republican candidate Jefferson Griffin, who lost the race, challenged the eligibility of tens of thousands of 2024 voters. Those voters will now have 15 days to verify their eligibility, potentially changing the outcome of the election.

Please share!!! This is getting ridiculous—they just can’t accept a loss. Please help spread the word to North Carolina. The North Carolina Court of Appeals ruled in a 2-1 decision that over 60,000 votes cast in last year’s closely contested state Supreme Court race must be verified and recounted.

The last day on which a majority of the Supreme Court’s justices had been appointed by Democratic presidents was May 14, 1969. One of the things we do in the legal academy is support our claims with facts.
