I'm not in his district but I was so impressed by Rep. AL Green's (https://algreen.house.gov/about) courage in standing up to and calling out Krasnov's and the GOP's lies yesterday that I wanted to donate some money. Unlike all the impotent, sclerotic clowns who call themselves the Dem "leadership" and constantly ask me for money whilst the most they do are write "Strongly worded letters" and finger wagging, Rep. Green's website was all about service to his district. I literally could not find a way to donate to him. But he is now a hero of mine. If only HE or one of the few with his courage and fire were leading the Dems. I wish he were 20 years younger. He'd have made a great president.

Woah america, are you alright?
Nope, America died and there will be no protesting at the funeral services.
I'm certainly not. And I decided that election night was going to be the day I got sober so that's fun. 120 days of no booze!
Congratulations! I made it 30 days last try. I'm at five days now.
Illegal protests.
Okay so since protests are an expression of opinion, and you got that pesky first amendment, all protests are legal, so this tweet is a nothing burger.
Yeah tell that to the legal german tourist who was being held in solitary and then tied to a bed and drugged nonstop for a month cause she missed her flight.
The pesky first amendment only applies where VP Krasnov says it does, comrade. Rules for thee, not for he.
There's a lot of nuance about how you do it. You can't protest in the middle of a highway, for instance.

That or free speech is dead. Those amendments aren’t laws of nature, they need to be maintained.
So we’ll see.
We really need to tax the mega rich. I compiled this list of numbers after the President speech last night, it's kinda wild:
$ 99,000 - National Median Income is less than $100 thousand.
$ 1,000,000 - 1 Million Dollars.
$ 485,000,000 - Cut Funds to International Relations and whatever.
$ 1,000,000,000 - 1 Billion Dollars. There are over 400 Billionaires in America.
$ 22,000,000,000 - Cut Funds to American Social Serivces through HHS (Human & Health Services).
$ 244,000,000,000 - Elon Musks Net Worth.
$ 1,620,000,000,000 - 1 Trillion Dollars - Meta (Facebooks) Corporate Net Worth.
$19,900,000,000,000 - The U.S. Deficit in Jan 2017 (Obama to Trump)
$27,800,000,000,000 - The U.S. Deficit in Jan 2021 (Trump to Biden)
$36,000,000,000,000 - The U.S. Deficit in Jan 2025 (Biden to Trump)
Yup it's really the clear solution but when the ultra rich control the government then it won't happen.
Yes, fuck this. And fuck the previous guy and every president before that.
I wish there was a way out of this duopoly
"illegal protests" Pretty sure Freedom of Speech and Assembly is part of the first amendment. He's a putz
You spelled Nazi incorrectly
Doesn't matter. The POTUS making this statement weakens it. Every single time it weakens it. The more people that hear it the more it weakens it.
The point isn't to stop it. It's to scare a few people and ready the maga parents with school-age children who refuse to speak to them for the Kent state reruns we're getting soon.
Trump has a team of scientists sitting in a lab cooking up the worst possible tweet in response to every issue.
“Thank you for your attention to this matter.”
Every time I scroll past this image, that’s the line that gets me. Bold threatening declaration by fascist dictator, then ends like a work email reminding you not to leave food in the cafeteria fridge over the weekend.
This is really real? Holy shit
