Great photos from the "No Kings" demos. Best sign = "If she won, we'd be at lunch now."
Typical of the AP. They found some pictures of police attacking Americans in LA, mostly ignoring the many millions of people who peacefully turned out across the country to show their opposition to Old Pussygrabber. And of course AP found a photo of a poorly attended local No Kings event, which of course they featured prominently. And their pictures of that miserably failed DC stroking session don't look all that bad here. This is how the Corporate Media constructs their lies.
No kings protests brought to you by the party who ordained Kamala as their candidate without a single vote
I could do a better job as president, and I'm just a lowly female with a lifetime of pinching every penny. I wouldn't have to throw myself a parade, or use the military against my constituents, or "cancel" anyone who isn't rich, white, and male.
And the only gifts I'll take from people trying to curry favor: books on all topics, fact or fiction, to be donated to literacy programs.
Be better if the time relevance was included with those military parade photos ... I mean it LOOKS like they were all taken a fair while before it started.
But that's the crux of it, most people didn't vote for her, so forget lunch, you get your just desserts.
I wanted Bernie.
Anyone writing about the English language should be defenesfrated if they use asterisks in place of letters so as to seem all clean and chirper while making the reader actually say the words in their head/
The truth is we are all adult and have heard the words thousands of times in day to day conversations, and since we were 8 years old ... so what is with the false holiness we let fester online ?
