Boomer who's weary of protesting the same shit decade after decade.

Keeping my life as simple as I can.

Ash-Lee Woodard Henderson came with an assignment: march. Vote early. Make sure it counts. Then keep raising hell for our right to have a say.

The fight doesn’t end when we cast a ballot.

@DemCastUSA Republicans promised to drain the swamp. Instead they flooded it: crypto bribes, foreign deals, pardons for sale, contracts for cronies. The swamp has a landlord now and it's them. Evict them all. Early voting is open in several states. No Kings Saturday. #VoteEarlyOnNoKings

[DemCast @DemCastUSA]

We’re mobilizing across the US to defeat Trump’s next coup attempt before, during, and after the election!! Text No Kings to 59798 to find your closest protest. ❌👑

CBS: Tariffs definitely don't work for Mary Buchzeiger. She owns an auto parts manufacturing company near Detroit and says tariffs forced her to scrap plans to add 350 more jobs. She remembers one day a tariff changed 3 times in 24 hours. Trump's corruption costs all of US.

[DemCast @DemCastUSA]

TOMORROW IS THE BIGGEST PROTEST OF THE YEAR!

Vote Early. We’re flooding the streets by the millions, & then we’re flooding the ballot box right behind them. The wanna-be king is counting on you staying home.

Damn this lady cooked these Lynchburg City Council members. When you’ve finally had enough, you show up and spit cold hard facts. WOW!!

Trump cut a deal allowing Russian diesel back onto global markets while Putin bombs Ukrainian civilians.

Sen Blumenthal and 11 bipartisan colleagues, including 6 Republicans, are demanding Trump rescind it.

Putin gets a lifeline. Ukrainians pay in blood.

Twenty-eight thousand, seven hundred stock trades while Trump sits in the Oval Office.

Mark Kelly made zero in six years in the Senate.

Trump wants rules for everyone else, just not for the family getting richer while your grocery bill keeps climbing.

Trump used a campaign rally to pardon two shop owners who admitted removing pollution controls from diesel trucks.

He gets applause for it.

The rest of us get dirtier air while he spends his time staging stunts instead of bringing down costs.

DHS started pounding at 4:30 a.m. outside Ilhan Omar’s home.

Her Native American neighbor thought they had come for her too. “What, they gonna deport me?”

Trump has turned federal law enforcement into a weapon against the people he wants afraid.

#TrumpsAbuseOfPower

[Emperor's Clothes @EmperorsClbk]

They came for Ilhan Omar before sunrise. Minneapolis came out that afternoon chanting her name.

Trump can aim federal law enforcement at a congresswoman who challenges him, but he does not get to decide who speaks, who belongs, or who stays quiet.

#TrumpsAbuseOfPower

[Emperor's Clothes @EmperorsClbk]

Trump’s DHS searched Ilhan Omar’s home 22 days before her election.

No charges. No public evidence.

But MAGA is celebrating.

They spent years calling the Mar-a-Lago search a witch hunt, then cheer when federal agents show up at a Trump critic’s door.

You pay $4 at the pump. Trump calls Canada, our biggest energy partner, “one of the worst countries in the world,” then goes shopping for diesel from Russia.

Putin gets cash for his war.

Trump gets a headline.

You get the bill.

#TrumpsAbuseOfPower

[Emperor's Clothes @EmperorsClbk]

Trump bragged last year that he “brought back free speech.”

Now his DOJ is investigating 5 networks because they stood together after he banned outlets for coverage he did not like.

You pay more everyday while he spends your tax dollars on his grudges.

#TrumpsAbuseOfPower

[Emperor's Clothes @EmperorsClbk]

ABC, CBS, CNN, Fox and NBC did not collude to raise prices or shut out competitors.

They separately refused to reward Trump for punishing CNN.

Calling that an antitrust case is a laughable excuse to sic DOJ on the press, on your dime.

#TrumpsAbuseOfPower

[Emperor's Clothes @EmperorsClbk]

Putin’s war has left Ukrainian families burying loved ones and children waking up to air-raid sirens.

Trump answered by helping Russia sell diesel to the world.

More cash for Putin’s killing machine, and still no relief for your gas bill.

#TrumpsAbuseOfPower

[Emperor's Clothes @EmperorsClbk]

Most Americans know Trump is using the presidency to make himself richer.

They are watching the same thing you are: crypto events at Mar-a-Lago, favors for people with money, and a president cashing in while your grocery bills climb higher.

[Emperor's Clothes @EmperorsClbk]

Trump gave Elon Musk and Satya Nadella medals for building America, then his administration went after Microsoft over foreign workers the same day.

Five of the six honorees are immigrants.

Billionaires get medals.

Workers get treated like a problem.

#TrumpsAbuseOfPower

[Emperor's Clothes @EmperorsClbk]

Trump handed medals to six tech billionaires who gave money to him, his campaign or his political groups.

Musk gave $237 million. Dell pledged $6.25 billion to Trump Accounts.

You are left footing the bill while Trump turns national honors into payback.

#TrumpsAbuseOfPower

[Emperor's Clothes @EmperorsClbk]

Corruption is not a Washington word.

It is a $16 million Reflecting Pool job that was supposed to cost $1.5 million, and services you do not get because somebody’s friend got the contract.

They spend your money.

You still get a vote.
