Macron took Trump to Versailles? Is he mad? Now there will not only be more tacky gilt, but crystal chandeliers and fountains with T's statue in the middle spouting from who knows where!

I'm switching between NO KINGS and that of the Scottish Independence reports. Wearing my pussy hat from 2017 and wishing I weren't so far away. With you all in spirit.

Power doesn't come from their thrones. It comes from OUR streets. From city blocks to rural town squares, we're uniting. 3,200 locations. One message: NO THRONES. NO CROWNS. NO KINGS. #WeSayNoKings social.demcast.com/s/ec8qvN20 #WeSayNoKings

Scotland, let's get on with #ScottishIndependence and a return to the EU.

NEWS: Bette Midler just released a remake of Woody Guthrie’s classic protest song “All You Fascists Bound to Lose,” updated to fit the current moment and urge action ahead of the midterms. You have to listen to this.
