Scotland’s signs are delivering. Y’all understood the assignment. 😂
Mr. Kaepernick kneeling in silent protest during our national anthem prior to the start of NFL games. As a retired Marine colonel with 4 combat tours as an infantryman I didn’t & don’t object to the powerful position he took. Allegiance to our flag is allegiance to an idea, not a piece of cloth.

Great, just what we need…Blackwater running amok w/in our own borders. Dont think for a second it wont happen. @altnps.bsky.social @votevets.org @protectdemocracy.org @democrats.senate.gov www.defenseone.com/policy/2025/...
America: No Kings! SCOTUS: Hold on a minute…
ICE agents in tactical gear chase down and tackle a U.S. citizen in L.A. After realizing he’s American, they just slink away. Their only explanation: “Why were you running?” Probably because two masked men with guns were trying to snatch him.
I was slow to see but now realize national news values the entertainment of the car crash over the facts. Almost 12 million of us protested PEACEFULLY even in LA, and lead photos are of the car crash. Shameful. @50501movement.bsky.social @altnps.bsky.social www.usatoday.com/picture-gall...
We need to ensure that the incredible organizing and inspiring courage of yesterday’s #NoKings protests continue to spread. On tomorrow’s mass call, we’ll discuss how we do that with concrete action steps to overcome authoritarianism. Please join us: www.mobilize.us/nokings/even...
@cnn.com coverage of #NoKings is weak. CNN anchors continue to use the phrase “so called No Kings protests” and state that thousands were protesting. There is nothing so called about this movement w/an estimated 11 million +participants. Do better CNN. @50501movement.bsky.social @indivisible.org
This is a turning point. This is the line we draw. This is the moment history will remember — when millions stood together to say NO to Trump, Vance, Vought, Theil, and all the corrupt cronies and cult. Follow the movement. Learn what comes next. Join us at FiftyFifty.One. #FiftyFiftyOne #NoKings
We came big in Wilmington too!!!
If 102-year-old Kurt Goldschmidt, a survivor of the Holocaust, says "no kings" you'd best get up and stand up for your rights before it's too late. Mr. Goldschmidt knows all too well what he's seeing in Trump's America. It was an honor to stand with him today. #NoKingsInAmerica
#NoKings Wilmington NC. Way to bring it @indivisiblewilmy.bsky.social Rain storm? What rain storm!!! Big shout out to Wilmington PD for creating & maintaining a safe environment! It was peaceful but damn was it LOUD! @altnps.bsky.social @indivisible.org @votevets.org @commoncausenc.bsky.social
#NOKINGS Wilmington NC. Amazing energy. Way to go Wilmington!!! @indivisiblewilmy.bsky.social
Patriots gathering in Wilmington NC @indivisiblewilmy.bsky.social
This veteran will remain faithful to his oath to support & defend the constitution of the United States & bear true faith & allegiance to the same @altnps.bsky.social @commoncausenc.bsky.social @wakencindivisible.bsky.social @ross.house.gov

This will not end well if 2/7 has to interact in the community. Pick up & read “The Troubles” for a preview. Every citizen needs to be screaming at max volume that this is not a slippery slope, rather it is a nose dive into the unknown.

Sucks to be 2/7
too much news relates to Harvard people who didn't go to Harvard shouldn't have to think about Harvard hell even some people who did go to Harvard probably shouldn't have to think about Harvard
Accurate.
Shut your pie holes GOP. You didn’t let the fox in, you invited, hugged and coo’d over the fox inside of your hateful stupid hen house full of twits that apparently can’t read.
They both suck.
Not too many county sheriff’s are thrilled about this either. Outside of metro areas our public safety officers are from sheriff departments. Our sheriff in Pender County does a great job but he only has so many deputies. SB50 really makes it more dangerous for our LE to do their job.
Ooooh hot scoop there President dipshit. No kidding they are going to respond - it’s a frigging war. How much did 47 give away to that murderous Russian thug to get that bit of juicy insight?
Similarities between ICE & the Gestapo
Well so is: TACO queen, Not welcomed in Greenland Vance, Hegseth, Noem, Kennedy, McMahon, etc. How many of us will die?
Fuck you Ernst!
Another Fox News audition perhaps?
To hell with the tariffs put 47 in peril by voting his congressional sycophants out of a job next year.
🤮
Good for you Bill. And we are stuck with Kennedy.
There IS a solution for people like him.
Bare minimum requirement for the leader of FEMA: know when hurricane season is. www.reuters.com/world/us/fem...
MAGA get out of jail free card, “he was joking.” Hmmmm, let’s ask folks in oh I don’t know, Arkansas, North Carolina (my home), Mississippi how FEMA is doing for them since the arrival of 47 & his thugs. Answer: Not good. He knew full well his statement was a precursor to “you’re on your own.” FU!
🤣
What a complete turd. We’re on to you orange menace. I’m sure your bitches in your administration & congress sold & will buy the dip just before you TACO again. In the meantime the rest of us get fooked. You suck!
Orange turd.

You have a real winner there Iowa.
So she (Ernst) says from her position of privilege. Something she will probably never have to worry about, but it’s clear she doesn’t care about those who voted for her. Good luck Iowa.
Musk should be asked about this in every interview he does now and forever. To ignore it is a dereliction of duty. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/30/o...
That POS called our fallen suckers last term. Fuck him.
Taking a weekend off from big issues to reflect on big issues. Drew Weaver, USMC, whether he knew it or not gave his life for us…all of us. I was his battalion commander & I think of his sacrifice often. I really don’t want it to be in vain. Semper Fi Drew. @votevets.org mavm.org/storiesarchi...

Excellent piece on Miller on habeas. Far superior to the surprisingly both-sides-ish coverage by some media. What Miller is claiming the power to do isn’t questionable or dubious. It would be anti-constitutional usurpation. www.stevevladeck.com/p/148-suspen...

They’ll probably all get jobs at ICE.

They want to keep their base uneducated, unhealthy, and working for minimum wage in the textile manufacturing plants they are bring back to the U.S.
just one day to be a glass is half full person…upon certification we rally for Justice Earls who is next in the election hopper. @commoncausenc.bsky.social @democracync.bsky.social @ncdemocrats.bsky.social
The Vatican keeps in tradition of having a Pope who doesn't like JD Vance.
Good. Next
Finally Griffin conceded! We knew she won in November and we're glad it's finally over! This should have never happened but voters and Riggs team fought hard to protect democracy and won!
This is why we don’t stand on the sidelines & let others fight for our democracy. Each of us needs to participate if we’re ever going to right this ship. A victory by us in NC like this proves we can do this. It’s a win to build on. Onward!
This is exhibit A for why we should actively participate in our democracy. This isn’t even close to the end of the beginning of our fight for voters in NC but it proves when we unite we can make a difference. For those on the sidelines this fight can be your clarion call to action. Action works!
We fight we win.
The @commoncausenc.bsky.social rally for Riggs in Feb was my first ever protest. I was so aghast at Jefferson’s attempt to sideline North Carolinians that I could not be silent. Thank you @commoncausenc.bsky.social for proving the organization & structure for us to participate in our democracy!
Way to bring it NC! 💪 👊 🔥 🇺🇸
Way to go NC & Justice Riggs 💪 👊 🔥 🇺🇸 @commoncausenc.bsky.social @indivisible.org @wakencindivisible.bsky.social
I'm attending No Kings's event, “NO KINGS Raleigh” - sign up now to join me! www.mobilize.us/nokings/even...
…And then they came for me & no one was left to speak for me
And this is surprising how?
Tillis is spineless. He flips every time. Wait & watch.
Don’t let this fall into the background
Even better that it was a Trump appointed judge.
Can’t fool the troops.
I look forward to Justice Riggs's continued service on the North Carolina Supreme Court.
Breaking News: A federal judge ordered the North Carolina elections board to certify the Democratic incumbent’s victory in a contested State Supreme Court race.
Our votes count. Our voices matter! Exhibit A why being active in our democracy matters! @commoncausenc.bsky.social @indivisible.org @wakencindivisible.bsky.social Federal judge tells state board to certify Riggs’ victory in disputed NC Supreme Court race www.wect.com/2025/05/06/f...
Yes!
VICTORY: Today, a US District Court ordered Justice Allison Riggs' victory to the NC Supreme Court be certified.
As we gather from every corner of our nation to unite in opposition to a wannabe king look around at the people next to you. They may be marching with you for reasons different than yours. We all see things differently but we are united for our country’s sake. Remember that when we win! March well!
Trump wants to spend $45 million for a military parade on his birthday. You don’t get to throw yourself a $45 million parade while slashing our rights. That’s why we’re taking to the streets on June 14 — because real power isn’t staged in DC, it rises up everywhere else: nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i...
All young officers learn this the easy way or hard way: You can’t mask incompetence from the troops. Seems Whisky Pete has yet to learn that lesson. @votevets.org @altnps.bsky.social www.military.com/daily-news/2...
👍
They most definitely are not. The U.S. Army had long planned to celebrate their 250th birthday that weekend. Trump hijacked the Army’s celebration. As a retired U.S. Marine it makes me sick to see a proud institution used by Trump for his own venal purpose.
Well we plan to march & protest in numbers that will dwarf his little tiny insignificant birthday toy show. And it will cost NOTHING! Isolate DC on 14 June with our presence throughout the country! @indivisible.org @50501movement.bsky.social @50501nc.bsky.social @votevets.org @altnps.bsky.social
This is all the proof we need to send this clown & his sycophants packing. He admitted on national TV he would not honor his oath. By now we know he isn’t just joking. Turn you head to this at your own peril. @indivisible.org @votevets.org @altnps.bsky.social @senatedemocrats.bsky.social
🔥🔥Rep. Chrissy Houlahan just lit it up: Trump shrugs off the Constitution like it’s optional. Congress is barely passing anything real. And the GOP? They literally voted to not vote. This isn’t gridlock—it’s surrender. And it should piss every American off.
Given that most, if not all MAGA merch is made in China, I'll be really curious to see what happens to their pricing and availability 😁
We will be there. Follow the Constitution - or else!

Ok, this is ENOUGH!! Check out this article from USA TODAY: Trump says 'I don't know' when asked if he must uphold the Constitution www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...
Well we know, perhaps from personal experience, eventually we’re reminded that we are merely flawed humans no matter how highly we think of ourselves.
