Especially in Wisconsin. It makes me sick to see how the right-wing has taken over the beautiful state of Wisconsin.

because Wisconsin is still primarily blue. We will rid ourselves of the corruption, hopefully soon. With the gerrymander gone, Paul Ryan, for one, is toast.

Americans will follow almost anything that becomes the "thing to do". Making this a regular event brings crowds attention and interest. Good for them!!!

Thanks for assembling all of that information, bigtree!

A friend invited me to join him at the Stonewall Inn protest march in New York City this afternoon. Although it was a blustery day, the heat of anger and the warmth of camaraderie made for a great event. While I don't identify with any of the initials in LGBTQ, I stand in arms with my brothers and sisters in opposition to the evil cabal destroying our great nation. As one of the tweets above says so clearly, "An attack on any of us is an attack on all of us."

I had no idea this was going on this weekend. Most hated man in the world right now. That's gotta sting.

We need to keep this up. I am gaining some hope back. I want him gone as soon as possible and then we'll deal with the rest of the GOP scum.

Identify the problem in a pithy, easily digestible phrase.

Propose a solution that is realistic and implementable.

And don't muddy the waters with a diffuse set of issues.

This is going to be a weekly occurrence in my city me thinks. Prepare for a long drawn out resistance until these shitheads are out of office.
