Why are folks mad at the working mom with kids on Medicaid and SNAP rather than companies like Walmart that refuse to pay her a living wage and provide health insurance?

One person was shot at the protest in Salt Lake City and is currently in critical condition. One individual is in custody. Please keep the victim in your prayers.

“We owe it to ourselves to keep imagining, keep pushing, keep making sure that we have No Kings, in name or just in deed, ever again.”

The Trump/Musk fight is why we say "No Kings"
Today's protests are about reestablishing a government of laws, not unaccountable oligarchs.

Can anyone verify these numbers? Because I’m hearing 200k in NYC, 100k in Philly and San Diego so 1m seems high. We do have reports though of ~8.6m nationwide though !!

I thought Trump said there would be no more conflicts when he was president since he blamed every conflict everywhere in the world for the last 4 years on Biden & said that none of them would’ve happened if he was president. I thought he was going full Art of the Deal with Iran?

I hope it is very clear what antisemitism looks like, and I'll tell you what, it's not an op-ed condemning genocide. Consider that while Rumeysa Öztürk spent 6 weeks in prison for her constitutionally protected speech, the president's friend wouldn't dream of worrying about such a thing.

My RT of a Dan Bishop Tweet. 

Bishop wrote:

Members of Congress and the Mayor of Newark committed an insurrection at a federal detention facility in New Jersey today. Worse than 9/11.

I wrote: Hey

This person thinks that the 650 colleagues you lost on 9/11 were nothing compared to three members of Congress conducting oversight as provided by law.
