Looking for a place to tell Trump “You ain’t no King”?

Hurray! Some good people already had a gathering plan for April 15,…

Inhuman: a poem about CECOT

The 50501 Movement and Women’s March were the first groups to announce an April 5th day of protest. And, these groups are…

Reflections on the kidnapping of Americans: How every layer of government failed Mahmoud Khalil and us
Mahmoud Khalil and You and Me I am afraid and my heart is broken. I am stunned that neither Congress, nor my New York elected leaders could bring back our neighbor who was kidnapped by the federal government and brought to a southern prison. Mahmoud Khalil is a lawful, permanent resident of the United States. And, Khalil is also a resident of New York, who was living in university housing with…

Joint Session: Where were you? Should you have been in DC?
Feb 2025 Protest Against: Trump, Elon Musk, and Congressman LaLota in Smithtown, Long Island, NY The Orange President put on a horrible show of bullying, lies, and con-artistry at the Joint Session — which was pretty much expected by any enlightened people and Democrats. But, what had we done to prepare? We did not prepare in the best way. I was as guilty as the next person. I was dying for some…

Why you should wear a crown to protest for democracy!
Tr*mp, You Are No King! My family made a sign about “no kings” to bring to a Tesla Take Down rally. Then, we realized it would be fun for all of us to wear crowns! You can wear your own crown. Because: Elon Musk is not King! Donald Trump is not King! The People are King!

Re: Trump's SpongeBob SquarePants meme
SongeBob SquarePants writes: Dearest Patrick, Why is this orange colored blob of a sea creature using the characters of Bikini Bottom to harass hard-working Americans? Orange Blobfish and his sidekick — who I think is some kind of hammerhead shark or cocktail shrimp? — are trying to bully a whole country, one ethnic group and identity caucus at a time. And, I think they think they can make it…
