Mike Johnson tried tonight to characterize the upcoming No Kings 2.0 day on 10/18 as a “Hate America” movement. Wrong. Utterly wrong. To reject dictators, authoritarians, and tyrants is to love America, to love the very idea at the heart of it.

@heidilifeldman

I'm thinking of making my sign something like

Returning America To Love!

I want the people who aren't marching with us to see that.

@jztusk @heidilifeldman I’m thinking “I want a divorce” for mine.
@heidilifeldman
There could be a literal Fuck America movement. There's nothing wrong with that. He's not in charge of who we gather with or what we say about the government. Prick.

@heidilifeldman While I agree with you, by calling protestors at the #NoKings aligned with #HateAmerica or #Antifa, Johnson is giving tacit permission for #StochasticTerrorism.

#Protest #organizers need to account for this with defenses like barriers (trees, vehicles, railroad ties, planter boxes, etc) that block physical access to curbside protestors so they won't get run over.

@heidilifeldman Call your House rep and senators - especially if they're Republicans - and ask if they agree with Mike Johnson (and Scalise and Emmert) that if you protest what this Republican administration is doing you are a terrorist who hates America.
@Axomamma @heidilifeldman Scalise was a protege of David Duke. That tells you everything you need to know about him and his voters #louisiana
@Axomamma @heidilifeldman I mean, remembering the response to protests against Bush in the 00s, the answer is yes they do, they always have.

@squishymage42 Obviously. The point is to let them know you're paying attention to whose side they're on.

@heidilifeldman There's unlikely to be a bunch of people out there saying this country is shit. If they do they're unlikely to be up on the podium. If they are they're unlikely to get much cheering.

Can't say the same about a Trump rally, can we.

Really something having those types point the finger at us and say we hate America :p

I hope everything tastes like ass for the rest of their lives.

@heidilifeldman Translating from Repubican to English, the (appropriately named) Johnson is really intimating that the Orange Regime IS America now, because the old norms are long gone and they can do whatever they want with gross impunity, and as such the Johnson is absolutely correct that we hate this new America now, because we do. #MakeAmericaAmericaAgain

@heidilifeldman

Did you know that "Johnson" is a slang term for penis?

@heidilifeldman Mike Johnson ought to be looking down the barrel of a motion to vacate. #LawfulRegimeChangeNow

@heidilifeldman

This toxic Trump Administration and its hand picked yes men should be removed or incapacitated as soon as anyhow possible. The damage they are doing to the USA internally, in the geopolitical context in the world and to the world economy is beyond comprehension. A dangerous dictatorial regime… unAmerican to the core. Shame on them.

@heidilifeldman This a#@€hole is such a snivelling little weasel, (no offence to weasels). He has that face and personality only a mother could love. He and every other Republican and their voters make my skin crawl. Horrible, angry, disgusting excuses for humans. 😡😡
@heidilifeldman
Whilst I accept wholeheartedly the concept of stochastic terrorism, isn't war just state terrorism?

@heidilifeldman there’s something ironic in that: Republicans opposed to republicanism.
@benjamineskola @heidilifeldman they really need to rebrand
@vmstan speaking as a republican in Not America, the association was already embarrassing but this is a particularly stupid example.

@heidilifeldman

It's projection all the way down. MAGA hates America. It hates the founders' ideals and it hates the slow but discernible direction towards liberty and justice that our country had been heading in for over 200 years.

@heidilifeldman We should keep throwing Reagan quotes at these people.
@heidilifeldman mine will be "Mike Johnson is a putz!"
@heidilifeldman This from the Make America Hate Again lunatics
@heidilifeldman Love America. Hate what the Trump cult is doing to it.

@heidilifeldman

Aww, you guys. Stop hurting poor Mikes feelings. You big meanies
