#USAnians have another #NoKings protest on the 28th, against Trump.

But they don't mean it. Their demands are absurd: just "the foundation this nation was built on".

Oops! The #USA was built on #genocide, #colonisation, #racism, and #violence. Time to do a LOT better.

If you really want No Kings, then abolish the #ImperialPresidency, and the executive presidency. Remove all powers of decree, nomination, veto, and military command. And evict your president from his mansion.

#Simple

"'When you’re a star, they let you do it. You can do anything.'

Renewed scrutiny of Trump’s ties to Jeffrey Epstein reminds us of just how Trump’s strategy with women — assaulting them without permission, on the assumption that legal accountability was unlikely — mirrors his strategy for governing. Grab ‘em by the institutions."

#US: The danger of an #imperialpresidency

The balance of power imposed by #DonaldTrump since January 20 is designed to reshape the architecture of American institutions for the sole benefit of a president seeking to evade the system of checks and balances.
