(next to an image of Trump wearing a crown that has been crossed out) NO KINGS MASS PROTEST JUNE 14, 2025
So what's next after today's May Day mobilizations?
On June 14, Trump wants tanks in the street and a made-for-TV display of dominance for his birthday.
But real power isn't staged in DC. It rises up everywhere else. That's why we're planning a nationwide day of action to say No Kings. 🧵

Hi, just a reminder that when you use Libro.fm for your audiobooks, you support independent bookshops vs. large corporations that drive them out of business.
We also pay taxes. And so do indie bookshops.

Which side of history will you be on? There are only two choices, freedom or fascism. I chose freedom.

So increasing the minimum wage to a livable wage is “socialism”?
But Amazon union busting, keeping wages low, and forcing workers onto public assistance while its founder increases his net worth by $7.9M an hour is the "free market"?
Perhaps this could be a WaPo opinion piece.
Always wondered how the Star Wars Emperor could start with a battle-hardened army and end up with an "entire legion of his best troops" being beaten to death by teddybears with sticks.
Then Hegseth ended up as US Defence Sec. And now yeah that makes sense.
The idiocalypse if you will 🧟
Republicans are planning to raise the deficit by $4.6 trillion dollars over the decade courtesy of more tax cuts for the rich. Meanwhile, 40% of the contracts DOGE has cut won't result in any savings. And it deleted its 5 biggest spending cuts from its "wall of receipts." Hello?
I think Trump might’ve lost Dave.
