A demonstration outside the John Cochran Veterans Affairs Medical Center in St. Louis yesterday.
An astounding 500 people showed up lining both sides of the street waving signs and chanting for almost two hours as cars honked and cheered protesters on.
People came from across eastern Missouri and Illinois and one thing was consistent in every conversation...
They’re pissed the f*ck off.

Maine (WABI) - "Senator #SusanCollins announced Wednesday that the University of Maine’s funding from the U.S. Department of Agriculture has been restored.
"On Monday the University received notice that funding from the USDA was paused.
"According to UMS, the notice stated the pause was temporary while the USDA evaluated potential follow-up actions related to prospective Title VI (6) or Title IX (9) violations.
"Collins released at statement saying:
'This USDA funding is critically important not only to the University of Maine, but to our farmers and loggers, as well as to the many people who work in #Maine’s #agriculture, #aquaculture, and #forestry industries. Now that funding has been restored, the work that the University does in partnership with the many people and communities who depend on these programs can continue.'"

NEW YORK (AP) — "Federal immigration authorities arrested a #Palestinian graduate student who played a prominent role in protests against #Israel at Columbia University, according to his attorney.
"#MahmoudKhalil was inside a university-owned residence Saturday night near Columbia’s Manhattan campus when several Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents entered his apartment and took him into custody, his attorney, Amy Greer, told The Associated Press.
"Greer said she spoke by phone with one of the ICE agents during the arrest, who said they were acting on #StateDepartment orders to revoke Khalil’s student visa. Informed by the attorney that Khalil was in the United States as a permanent resident with a green card, the agent said they were revoking that too, according to the lawyer.
"The arrest appeared to be among the first known actions under President Donald #Trump’s pledge to deport international students who joined the protests against the war in Gaza that swept college campuses last spring. His administration has claimed participants forfeited their rights to remain in the country by supporting Hamas, a terror organization.
"When ICE agents arrived at the campus building Saturday, they also threatened to arrest Khalil’s wife, an #AmericanCitizen who is eight months pregnant, Greer said. The authorities declined to say why Khalil was being arrested, according to the attorney."

BOSTON (AP) — Demonstrators gathered outside Tesla stores across the U.S. Saturday to protest the automaker’s billionaire CEO, Elon Musk, and his push to slash government spending on behalf of President Donald Trump.
The demonstrations are part of a growing backlash in North America and Europe to Musk’s disruptive role in Washington.
Critics of Trump and Musk hope to discourage and stigmatize purchases of Tesla, the electric car company that is the world’s most valuable automaker. Liberal groups for weeks have organized anti-Tesla protests in hopes of galvanizing opposition to Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency and energizing Democrats still demoralized by Trump’s November victory.
“We can get back at Elon,” said Nathan Phillips, a 58-year-old ecologist from Newton, Massachusetts, who was protesting in Boston on Saturday. “We can impose direct economic damage on Tesla by showing up at showrooms everywhere and boycotting Tesla and telling everyone else to get out, sell your stocks, sell your Teslas.'"

MUNICH, Germany (AP) — "More than 200,000 protesters rallied in Munich, Germany, on Saturday against #FarRightExtremism ahead of the country’s #GeneralElection.
"The far-right, #AntiImmigrant #AlternativeForGermany, or AfD, is in second place in recent polls and has prompted widespread protests across the country before voters cast their ballots on #February23.
"The protest at Munich’s Theresienwiese — where Oktoberfest takes place each year — brought a significantly larger crowd than expected, according to the German dpa news agency. The event’s organizer estimated the crowd could be up to 320,000 people, many of whom carried signs against the AfD with slogans like, '#Racism and #hatred is not an alternative.'
"The protest was supported by #ActivistGroups as well as the #MunichFilmFestival, #churches and Munich soccer clubs FC Bayern and TSV 1860, among others. Police told dpa that the demonstration was peaceful.

"Similar #protests attracted large crowds on Saturday in #HanoverGermany, #RostockGermany, and elsewhere in Germany, mirroring other demonstrations that have occurred across the country in recent weeks."

"Students from multiple high schools in East Los Angeles walked out of class on Tuesday in support of #immigrants’ rights and against the Trump administration’s policies of arrest, detention and #deportation of migrant workers and their families.
"Students at Garfield High School walked out at 10:00 am and marched down Whittier Boulevard, blocking traffic. They waved Mexican flags and carried signs and banners reading '#LuchaContraTrump' [fight against Trump]. Shortly thereafter, students from Oscar De La Hoya, Esteban E. Torres, Bravo Medical and Roosevelt high schools joined the walkout.
"By 1:00 pm, the student demonstration had reached City Hall. A report by CBS News said that student protesters had breached City Hall barriers by 2:30 pm.
"The CBS News report continued:
School officials encouraged students to stay on campus for safety purposes, and to “express their views on campus.” Los Angeles Unified School District Superintendent Alberto M. Carvalho encouraged students not to stay home, and to protest “within the school facilities.”
"The student walkout coincided with a third day of protests in downtown Los Angeles against the Trump administration’s Department of Homeland Security (#DHS), and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raids and arrests of thousands of immigrant workers since Trump’s inauguration on January 20.
"Some immigrants have been detained and flown out of the US on military aircraft to countries such Columbia, Venezuela and Guatemala. While the White House is claiming that those being deported are guilty of crimes in the US, the truth is that the migrants being deported on military flights have been caught up in the ICE dragnet regardless of their immigration or legal status.
"Tuesday saw the first US flight of detained migrants to the US naval base at #GuantanamoBay, Cuba, where Trump said a prison camp for 30,000 people is being built. The flight from Fort Bliss in Texas was reported to have a dozen migrants on board, most of whom were from Venezuela and classified as 'high-value' detainees. [I warned you wall that #Trump would start using #Gitmo!]
"The Trump administration, which asserts that the migrants are affiliated with the Tren de Aragua gang, will house these men in cells like those holding the 'enemy combatants' who have been jailed at Guantanamo since the administration of George W. Bush, following the terror attacks of September 11, 2001. The 15 detainees remaining have been held in violation of their democratic rights.
"The demonstrations on Tuesday were part of a nationwide #DayWithoutImmigrants campaign, with workers staying home and students organizing walk-outs. The campaign was initiated on social media and took place in many of the cities where ICE raids have already taken place.
"In #SeasideCalifornia, south of San Francisco, hundreds of people marched on Monday, blocking traffic on Fremont Street and Del Monte Boulevard to protest the Trump administration’s anti-immigration policies and plans for mass deportations.
"Protesters reported that on the previous day Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents were spotted in Seaside and North Salinas. Many Latino-owned stores in Seaside and down the Central Coast were closed. Lupita’s Bakery on Fremont Avenue in Seaside released a statement that said, 'Our decision today was about more than just business; it was about people, unity, and standing for what is right.'"

"Police in riot gear moved in on protesters in downtown Los Angeles after a daylong demonstration against Trump’s #immigration policies and mass #deportations.
"The #protest, which was organized and promoted on social media, originated on the Placita Olvera on Olvera Street near DTLA and saw demonstrators on the 101 Freeway at Alameda Street blocking both sides of roadway by 12:30 p.m., causing massive gridlock.
"Officers with the Los Angeles Police Department assisted by California Highway Patrol were able to clear the freeway as protesters took to downtown surface streets, but then quickly got back on the major artery through downtown at Los Angeles Street.
"Many of the protesters were carrying signs, some of which were speaking out against Trump’s policies regarding immigration.
"'The real criminal is in the White House,' one sign read. Another read
'Jesus said ‘Love Thy Neighbor,’ not deport them.'"

"Austin police later said in a statement Tuesday that two people were arrested at the protest.
"APD said the gatherings were 'mostly peaceful' but stated there was a group of 'agitators' that engaged in violent behavior, throwing rocks at police officers and driving recklessly.
"'To reiterate, the events were mostly peaceful, but unfortunately individuals who were not participants in the organized gatherings joined in and disrupted the peace. As always, APD respects our community’s right to peacefully demonstrate, however we will not tolerate behavior that puts our community and officers in danger,' the statement concluded.
"At around 1:30 p.m., a brief police pursuit happened in an attempt to apprehend a driver 'engaging in dangerous conduct', says APD, resulting in the arrest of one person for reckless driving and their vehicle being impounded. APD did not elaborate on what the 'dangerous conduct' was.
"Austin police say that the crowd dispersed at the request of the organizers, despite many people seen on camera remaining in the area.
"APD then says at around 9 p.m., the 'agitators' returned to the area and a fight broke out among those gathered, which prompted a police response. Multiple people were reportedly throwing rocks and bottles at police.
"Officers used #Pepperballs, which APD says are 'less lethal skin irritants' similar to pepper spray, in an attempt to prevent further violence.
"While the crowds dispersed, APD says one person refused to move out of the roadway, and they were arrested for pedestrian in the roadway."

So where are your huge protests?
I see Germany taking to the streets against AfD/CSU collaboration, 50 cities, 100000's. I see Georgia protesting 64 days straight.
But US folks: "I'm tired & numb"
Sorry for kicking you while you're down, but you always tell people to pull themselves up by their own bootstraps.
