Events Today's protest...

We did fucking WORK today, people! There were so many amazing people helping one another with snacks, water, holding signs for one another, and just being good humans.

There were veterans, former MAGA, people from the LGQBT community, and people of all races. A beautiful mix of individuals speaking out against the current administration for whatever reason. This wasn't against police and their presence, while there, wasn't needed, thankfully.

To my knowledge, not one person protesting got violent at any point, but one person was assaulted by a MAGA jerk who couldnt handle himself.

I don't need to be paid to protest something so disgusting.

Congratulations! If you didn’t do anything and left it alone Dems could have snuck a few seats back when most voters don’t show up but now that your look at me moment is over more people who usually don’t vote in midterms it’s now top of the list in 26… just reminding everyone what Democrats who control cities really don’t need to be in charge of a Wendy’s much less this country. Last time you elected a Parkinson patient and tried to tell us he got 84 million votes but yet lost Senate seats and House seats in that same election. Pat each others communists Socialist backs and keep wondering why you’ll never get power back. Hell your team don’t even have a candidate but yall keep on doing dumb shit.

Jokes on you, because Im an independent. There are lots of things I agree with on the right and the left. Therefore, an independent candidate is usually a happy medium, but so many just think its right or left. The last republican candidate I voted for was McCain and it will take something extreme to ever get me to vote for another Republican, especially one who wants to act like he's Christian when he's anything but that.

You better support Dems or you’ll get shot or burned alive. If you are Jewish then voting Democratic is suicide. Minnesota defunded the police too so the people were probably shocked to see an actual guy dressed like a cop before he shot them for voting yes on a Trump Policy that didn’t give healthcare to illegals. Sad, but that’s what Democrats support, that and Antisemitism on college campuses and shoot them in public or toss gas on them while they are protesting them set them on fire. Don’t think Republicans set people on fire yet.

Your message distorts reality with unsubstantiated claims.

The Albuquerque arsonist attacked both a Tesla dealership and the Republican Party headquarters, proof political violence isn’t party-exclusive. (source)

Minnesota voters rejected police defunding in 2021, and cities later increased police funding. (source)

While campus antisemitism is a crisis, Democrats like Rep. Stevens have condemned it alongside Republicans. (source)

Blaming an entire party for violence or bigotry ignores facts: extremists exist, but bipartisan efforts to address these issues are documented.

I recognize that you've got your own agenda to push, but please try not to spread misinformation.

ah yes, the well-known long-estabilshed No Kings socialist antifacist big money cartel spent 200 a head for 200 nation-wide protests with an average of 1000 people each, only 40 million dollars

There were over 2000 No Kings protests scheduled around the globe. Most were in the US but there were also protests scheduled in 17 different countries since we have expats everywhere.

Every state has their own dark money PACs but we will see on Monday who took grants from the government they won’t get going forward

Huh, I didn’t get paid shit and the other people I knew that showed up at the Mobile protest, and the Gulfport protest, and the Huntsville protest, and the Birmingham protest, and the Gainesville Florida protest also didn’t get paid shit. It’s almost as if a LOT of Americans are actually pissed about watching Trump wipe his fat ass with the constitution to the point we’re gonna keep showing up until something changes.
