I love this community.  

We were thinking we were going to Tukwila, but then weren't needed, and then hit the march late coming out of the Westlake station.  Just step right out of the train station into a political march.  Great march.  In these dark political times, it's cathartic to have something that feels like a celebration with people who aren't horrible.  But Tukwila went sidewise, so a bittersweet day.  The sense of community these marches create is so important.  But the fuckers still are running shit. 

 

That Tukwila sham was a clear provocation. Looks for all the world like a deliberate attempt by ICE to start a conflict.

That DC Military Parade Being Out-of-Step:

They aren't. It is an officially non-step step called "Route Step." You use it when you've got to march a unit cross-country and you don't give a rip about how you look. If, somewhere along the way, you were to pass in review before a respected commander, yeah, the column would probably switch to "Forward March" with various guys skipping to get back into step.

If those troops were doing route step miles away from the President, might seem normal. If they were in front of him, seems odd.

some limp-dick pussy in a jacked-up truck did the "roll coal" faggotry at one of the rallies.  That's all I got. 

I think the same guy hit the flower Mound protest.  

Happy with the turnout.  Most optimistic I've felt about America in a long time.

What stood out at the NYC match - which btw was in a miserable steady ran - was the pure diversity.  

Young, very old, man, woman, non gender, white, black, brown - a cornucopia of America.

That bullshit in DC looks like a southern Baptist revival.  

It also looks exactly how Trump and his merry band of assholes want it to look.  Sorry fuckface, every single day from now until eternity this country or whatever the fuck country is on this land will get a darker populace.  Science, asshole.

Don't think I got a pic of it, but I loved the "Who would Jesus deport?" sign.

It was right up there with "FAT BITCH HERE ... READY TO SIT ON FASCISTS".

These Mrs Wood comments are what makes this place so fucking awesome. We are all having serious patriotic emotions flowing, but we ain't never above letchering over photos of another surl's wife. Or daughter. Or cousin. Or grandmother probably. I love you all.

As there is no thread for today’s mass in Chicago, where the Catholic pope broadcast his message for today, I will link that message.

And for those who do not identify with Christianity, much less Catholicism, I want to include a purely secular iconic song that I think mirrors what the pope has to say.

A late edit, to include something my wife reminded me, Pope Leo has called on Catholic clergy to step up and accompany immigrants to their court hearings.

I am not Catholic, but I respect this pronouncement from the leader of the Catholic Church.

Everyone here needs to know, remember, and be clear-eyed: by associating with any “opposition” to the Regime, you are putting your life at risk.
Your yard sign, your flag, your bumper sticker, your lawn presence at a political event, a Democrat office, all may make your life forfeit.
That is where we are. The truth is, we’ve been there for a while.
Know that the price of exercising your political rights may be your life. And don’t hesitate to do so.

At the protest today I made no effort to conceal my identity. My privilege is not just the color of my skin, but also the life I’ve led. If the fascists come for me, they’ll have to come for me where I live. That is the extent of my exposure, and  I am ready to meet them at my door.

Everyone should hear what this young woman has to say. Thanks for posting.

She’s fan-fucking-tastic. Seriously, she’s got my vote for….something. That what an ACTUAL American Patriot sounds like.

Last time I heard that song sung live was when I was maybe 15, from the losing side of a pinecone fight.

I've thought several times that two bumper stickers need to be made and plastered everywhere. 

JESUS WAS AN UNDOCUMENTED BROWN IMMIGRANT

TRUMP WOULD ARREST AND DEPORT JESUS

Decided to get a little exercise and employ my constitutional right to yell "fuck trump" a couple of times, so I strolled down to the capital from my place in Hyde Park. Aint gonna lie, I was a bit warm standing in that sun, so I bailed after an hour and headed back stopping in at Scholz's for a pop and to catch the end of the US open, and then again at the Crown because, well its the Crown. Not a bad Saturday.
Guy was handing these out, but mine got a little fucked up in my pocket.

It was awesome! So many interests represented and some off the chain signs. I’ll try to post a few. My “ Nah”…Rosa Parks 1955 shirt, was a hit.

Holy shit. Has Arky become self aware?

That's a college town, of course. The state overall is certainly still Trumpkin ruled.

So now that this is over what comes next?

Today looked great. Big turn outs at NKs, shitty unenthusiastic turnout at the Masturbation on the Mall. 
 

But thinking back to campaign rallies last fall I can’t help but think.

This is basically what I said to the wife (no pics) as we walked back to our vehicle after going to the No Kings event in Claremont, CA.  Terrific event.  A lot more showed up than I expected.  And I have more optimism now than I did before the event.  But now how do we continue and channel this momentum to actually effect some meaningful change?
