When Texas Gov Abbott criticizes Pres Trump's use of ICE, something must be very wrong.

It's not long, just his short ICE speech, no ceremonies and stuff.

Complete with John Prine quote:

"I really love America. I just don't know how to get there anymore."

I wonder if the No Kings rally next month will attract more attendees than the prior one did?

Given ICE's, which is looking more and more like Pres Trump's private militia[1], apparent murder of two American citizens since the last No Kings rally, perhaps the next No Kings rally will be even more significant.

Especially since it will occur at the start of the 2026 election season ...

His message, as always, was "Love me, or I'll hurt you".

I really think Talarico would be a great Senator...and it makes sense for me to mention that I am an atheist. I have listened to a lot of his videos, and have the sense he uses his religion to empower himself and to engage with like minded people, and in no way is he a danger to those of us who see things differently.

Curious... Since we have to declare any income we receive from attending protests on our taxes, may we write of the expense of the dues we pay to Antifa?

A young man went looking for America. He couldn't find it anywhere.

Of course, we know how the movie ended ...
