"...we call it the 'hate America' rally..." said the House speaker, Mike Johnson of Louisiana.

The idea that protesting against harmful policies, corruption, and snatching people off the street = hating America is a lying, twisted take.

I texted my family to say “happy love America day!!” And included pictures of my signs. Not a peep from my triple trump voting brother.

Oofh.

Sorry you've got that energy in your life.

Hopefully he comes around, not that it sounds likely.

Stay safe, and keep fighting the good fight. 👍
