>> At this point, I have no argument against this. And, yes, I concede that we are clearly heading down the road where many more Luigis could potentially be produced.

I've been following this thread, occasionally boosting Ben's posts.

>> nobody is throwing themselves on the gears of the machinery to even slow it down.

#AlarmBells are going off in a sign that says "No! No! No! No!" and nothing else.

One sign says "#Impeach the #FelonInChief"

"This is a #MoralMoment. It's. not #Left or #Right, but Right or Wrong" — #CoryBooker

Someone with a #NationalParkService decal says "I Wish #Trump Would Pet a Bison" — very creative!

Then there's the #DumpTrump sign.

In the back there's "Free Books, Free Minds, Support #IMLS & Your Local #Library. …#DOGE #SHANKKK"

"Hands Off #NATO"

#Chicago #HandsOff #Protests

Sign says "End #BookBans"

Another says "Now is the #MoralMoment:

Amazingly Sen #CoryBooker is still awake & will be interviewed on The #RachelMaddow Show which starts at 9PM ET.

"I don't want a Disney vacation of our #history! I don't a #whitewashed history, I don't want a homogenized history. Tell me the wretched #truth about #America, because that speaks to our greatness" - Sen Cory Booker
