And the police will claim that all protesters are blocking traffic in any situation, in the same way they always accuse people of resisting arrest when they are beating them.

This is ludicrous.. It’s also financial incentive to arrest more people during a protest, and/or to use more expensive and unnecessary means in response. In addition to, you know, violating constitutional rights and effectively threatening people against protesting.

A similar bill is going up in Indiana and other states.

Nate Parker raped someone, leading to the victim’s suicide. What Casey Affleck (allegedly) did is disgusting, but comparing the two is idiotic.

National Park Service employees have gone fully rogue after Prump’s WH banned their tweets. Follow them if you’re interested in science and the environment:

I need the ACLU, Dems and journalists to get this man impeached YESTERDAY. The fact he’s moving so fast to burn our country to the ground shows that he knows he’s got limited time. SOMEBODY DO SOMETHING.

My Trump-voting colleague has spent the last year interviewing and going through the motions to enroll in a particular federal job training program that would have guaranteed him a significantly higher salary and better benefits than our current job.

And there’s no way Donald Trump will win the Republican nomination!

This was my favorite from the Philly march. Well done, person!

DC’s best sign:

Saw this on Instagram:

I kind of love that WaPo is now just flat-out saying that Trump is lying:

Except for his approval rating, smooth transition...crowd turn out.

“Goldman’s cake, in contrast, was composed of nine differently-flavored layers of cake, because it was an actual cake.” lol for crying out loud, he’s going to pinch pennies on cakes and dresses and still rob the country blind

It’s difficult to overstate just how awful this speech was. That’s two times now (Republican Convention and inauguration) that Trump has had the chance to stand before a nation that includes many people nervous at the prospect of his presidency and deliver reassuring remarks that were prepared and rehearsed ahead of…

The whole “drain the swamp” premise would be more compelling if he hadn’t filled his Cabinet with billionaires

The whole speech is one of the most jingoistic piece of shit I’ve heard in recent history.
