Trump deployed forces against American citizens to chill dissent, spark confrontation, and create an excuse to seize even more power. We won’t back down, but we need to be prepared to handle encounters with law enforcement and de-escalate tense situations.

Let's all take a moment to read the Posse Comitatus Act of 1878. It's only one sentence.
@BrownIsBeautiful @ProPublica I think this incident is a direct result of the underpayment and undervaluing of teachers and education. I think schools using police to do their jobs is sad. But vilifying bad teachers doesn’t solve those bigger problems. It shows that when we don’t value education we end up with teachers so under-supported that they in up mistreating children. And good teachers leave the system before they have to witness something like this.
“It is up to all of us to fix this. It’s not going to be because somebody comes and saves you.”

250 years ago, Americans made it pretty clear that we weren’t going to be ruled by kings.

In 18 days, we’re taking to the streets again to reject Trump’s authoritarianism and show the world what democracy really looks like. We hope to see you on June 14 for No Kings Day: https://www.nokings.org/?SQF_SOURCE=indivisible
