I'll be at the #NoKings #Rally and #March in #Chicago tomorrow: mobilize.us/nokings/event/7863 12-2pm, begins at Daley Plaza. See you there!

MobilizeNo Kings Rally and March · No KingsIn America, we don’t put up with would-be kings. Join Indivisible Chicago and our partner organizations (listed below) for a rally and march in downtown Chicago as we come together to say NO KINGS! June 14 is a national day of action and mass mobilization in response to the increasing authoritarian excesses and corruption from Trump and his allies. We’ve watched as they’ve cracked down on free speech, detained people for their political views, threatened to deport American citizens, and defied the courts. They’ve done this all while continuing to serve and enrich their billionaire cronies. On June 14—Flag Day—Donald Trump is planning tanks in the streets of our capitol and a made-for-TV display for his birthday. But real power isn’t staged in DC. It rises up everywhere else. And, the flag doesn’t belong to Donald Trump. It belongs to us! No Kings is a nationwide day of defiance. We’re taking action to reject authoritarianism—and show the world what democracy really looks like. On June 14th, we’re standing together to say no thrones, no crowns, no kings. Join us in Chicago!

Mary Austin VOTED 4 HARRIS!

In Linn County, #Oregon, a real Rosie the Riveter was out protesting #Trump on her 99th birthday, April 5.

Asked what she hates most about him, she says, "Everything! He's an idiot!" She says he's the worst president of her life, and she has seen a few come and go.

Once brave, always brave. Thank you, Nita. You should not have to be out there, but God bless you.

Relevant right now, as pro-democracy protests grow:
If you think coverage of protests is slanted, it is, and here's how, specifically.

Article is from 2020 and about the Black Lives Matter protests, but it's the same game today.

As always, words have power.

Nieman LabIt’s time to change the way the media reports on protests. Here are some ideas."People kept sharing these videos that were coming up and it was unambiguous what was going on. We weren't looking at a stream of videos of violence erupting or clashes breaking out. We were looking at cops, attacking people."

Today in Egg Harbor Township, New Jersey, USA, there was a protest/rally to oppose the proposed cuts to the Veterans Administration by the Trump regime.

More than 83,000 employees are expected to be cut. Essential programs are scheduled to be eliminated. We were there today to fight for the rights of those who have fought for us.

@tao That diagram looks like an illustration of the Banach-Tarski paradox.

How does it go again?

Ah yes: if you accept the Axiom of You Have No Choice, it follows that for all agencies under public ownership, there exists some series of political manoeuvres such that an agency can be disassembled and the pieces looted, ransacked, destroyed, pillaged, and privatised until the agency provides no more than half of its previous services; all the while claiming that the remnants are somehow at least as effective as the original.

The only way to avoid the paradox is to reject the Axiom of You Have No Choice. #HandsOff

Here's our group of 8 protesting today in South Jersey, USA. This is a small group that protests during their lunch hour Mon thru Fri. Our daughter invited us to attend. It's about an hour's drive from where we live.

We had a great time! Lots of supportive honks and thumbs up.👍🏻

A group of 8 protesters and a young dog are standing together for a selfie as they hold protest signs. Examples of the signs are, "Resist Fascism," and "Liberty and Justice for All."
Two women are standing side-by-side with protest signs. The signs read, "Liberty and Justice for All," and "No Kings, No Tyrants, Hands Off Our Democracy." A furry, tan dog is on the grass in front of them.
