250 years ago, Americans rejected a mad king.
On June 14, we’re taking to the streets again for a nationwide day of defiance to say NO KINGS.
Over 600 events are planned in all 50 states to reject authoritarianism and show the world what democracy really looks like:
www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i...Republicans are not going to impeach Trump. Democrats impeached him twice and he got reelected.

Organize it!
The more I get to know about
@indivisible.org the more Indivisible seem like a controlled operation and part of the problem. Instead of collecting votes for the Dems please advocate for truly progressive policies. Support Palestine, abolish ICE and DOGE, hold police accountable etc...
Will you be at the march on June 14th?
I’ll be in the streets of NYC!! We need millions to stand up to the Orange Tyrant and his Military Parade.

June 14 is Trump’s birthday and his military parade in DC — but the biggest story of that day will be the actions we take everywhere else. Join our nationwide day of defiance to show that organized people power is stronger than Trump’s authoritarian aspirations:
www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i...Can we act before then? We need to impeach and convict this mother fucker NOW. Then we won't have to worry about his stupid parade.
Are the Republicans going to impeach him? They control both the House and the Senate!

On June 14—Flag Day—Donald Trump wants tanks in the street and a made-for-TV display of dominance for his birthday. A spectacle meant to look like strength. But real power isn’t staged in Washington. ...
Yes! A counter to the $90 million
Military Parade!!
This isn't hypothetical.
The coming days are bringing higher prices and disrupted supply chains, this time not because of a pandemic or a war, but self-inflicted by our country's government under this president.
I am assuming you are spending your days building a team and strategizing to develop a plan to save the Country from the Heritage Foundation’s Project 2025 and their puppet, Trump. You had my support in 2020 and I am and an early supporter for 2028 - if we survive the next 4 years.

Moment of clarity today in the Senate where Republicans sided with big banks & against customers. Higher fees, lower transparency.
Now it goes to the House - so call your Member of Congress to ask how they’ll vote!
Pete I truly hope you collaborate with Ezra Klein and Derek Thomson as you plan you run for President. It is not too early!! I’m in.

In our latest podcast,
@sarahlongwell25.bsky.social and I talk about about the Trump administration’s flouting of court orders, and what it portends for the Constitution. Watch or listen:
t.co/KpkvWXVAaghttps://www.thebulwark.com/p/conway-explains-is-trump-declaring
The time for talk is so long past - where’s the action? No leadership, no strategy, no plan, and feckless resistance against the forces that are dismantling our democracy.
“‘We’ve never seen a president so comprehensively attempt to arrogate and consolidate so much of the other branches’ power, let alone to do so in the first two months of his presidency,’ said Stephen Vladeck, a professor at Georgetown University Law Center.“
How Trump Is Trying to Consolidate Power Over Courts, Congress and More
President Trump’s expansive interpretation of presidential power has become the defining characteristic of his second term.
This is not Trump, he is not smart enough, this Heritage Foundation, America First Policy Institute, Federalist Society, and JD’s handlers,
Peter Thiel & Curtis Yarvin. Please start educating the American public on the real culprits.
Canadian MP Charlie Angus: I am here today to urge Canadians to avoid travel to the United States if at all possible and to call on our government to stand up for our citizens who are being denied their rights through arbitrary detention in the United States.
This American encourages Canadian to join us in our resistance. Please stay out of the US and buy nothing from the US. We appreciate your help and hope we can once again be your friendly neighbors.

An assemblywoman who leads the Brooklyn Democratic Party and who has been a key backer of Mayor Eric Adams endorsed his main rival in the upcoming mayoral election, former Gov. Andrew Cuomo, on Sunday.
Mayor Adams’s Biggest Backer in the State Capitol Endorses Cuomo
Rodneyse Bichotte Hermelyn, chairwoman of the Brooklyn Democratic Party, had been one of the mayor’s staunchest supporters.
This is like supporting syphilis over gonorrhea
Best analogy yet.
I’m shaking my head in disbelief that supporters of Adam, with all his charges, are willing to jump on the band wagon of an old disgraced white man who was forced to resign because he was a misogynist and an abuser. Disgusting.
The United States government stays OPEN. 🇺🇸

Dozens of fires across Oklahoma have destroyed nearly 300 structures and burned close to 200,000 acres, Gov. Kevin Stitt said Saturday morning, as dangerous fire conditions persisted from Texas to Nebraska.
Wildfires Quickly Spread Across Texas and Oklahoma
In Oklahoma alone, more than 150 blazes were burning, which have destroyed almost 300 structures and killed at least one person.
And FEMA is where
DOGED!
Gee too bad Musk/Trump & Noem defunded then shut down FEMA. Oops no federal disaster relief for states. They have to fend for themselves. Good luck!
Breaking News: The U.S. began carrying out military strikes against dozens of targets in Yemen controlled by the Iranian-backed Houthi militia.

The air and naval strikes on targets controlled by Houthi fighters were intended to open up international shipping lanes in the Red Sea.
Trump said no wars - except the ones he starts.
Breaking News: Pete Buttigieg is said to have decided he will not run for Senate in Michigan, opening the door to a 2028 presidential bid.
Pete Buttigieg, a Possible 2028 Contender, Won’t Run for Senate in Michigan
The former transportation secretary, who moved to Michigan from Indiana in 2022, had been seen as the most prominent potential candidate in next year’s marquee contest.
Yes to a 1028 Presidential run.

In this week’s episode of Main Justice, Mary McCord and I discuss how “WE ARE HERE” - meaning, the assault on fundamental democratic institutions is happening. It is not some future possibility or the worrying of those who see a glass half-empty.

I don’t understand why all the focus is on the crazy but serious antics of Trump and not the Cabinet Members who are faithfully executing the 180 day plan of Project 2025?
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth continued his efforts to revive the Confederate names of military bases, announcing on Monday that he is re-renaming Fort Moore, whose previous name honored the confederate general Henry Benning.
The base, which is in Georgia, will again be called Fort Benning.
Hegseth Says Fort Moore Will Be Renamed to Fort Benning
The base’s name was changed to Fort Moore in 2023 as part of a bipartisan effort to eliminate military honors bestowed on Confederate officers.
This is the administration’s priority - changing names. Or is that just all Hegseth is capable of doing?
“The liberal media—and I mean “small-l liberal media”—needs to understand reality. It needs to grok that we are in the middle of an authoritarian takeover. It needs to decide if it merely operates by the pre-existing rule set—or if it is on the side of liberalism.”

The Washington Post and Autocracy’s Asymmetric Advantage
Liberalism is afraid to take its own side.
The plan of Heritage Foundation, Federalist Society, and America First Policy Institute moves forward under Trump. Control of media is a pillar of their plan.
Opinions are no longer free speech.
I shared this note with the owner of the Washington Post this morning.
I guess the Free Speech does not apply to the Opinion Section of the Washington Post. I am cancelling my Amazon account and will support small businesses in NYC.

I would encourage civil disobedience, walkouts, and accidental shredding of documents, and data. If fired anyway,what can one do. And collective walkouts. Not something Americans are used to but it is time to learn.
If the US had not destroyed the unions you would have a real fighting chance.
Sadly, many Union members voted for Trump.
