Pay attention, America. THIS is how we WIN !!
The turnout for #NoKings has been unbelievable, showing everyone in the world we are NOT a nation that accepts oligarchy as the norm. The more we organize and do things like this, the better our chances of seeing a real change.

Friday, 60 veterans were detained following veterans protest against Army parade on Capitol Hill, 1 injured
The group had just concluded a protest in front of the Supreme Court building and were preparing to take photos near the Capitol building when the incident occurred.
The veterans sat down on the steps of the Capitol with signs that read "Veterans say military off our streets" and "Money for people, not parades."
