June 14 is Flag Day. I honor our flag but more importantly, I honor the democracy it represents.

I honor the men and women who fought and died to create and maintain this democracy. I do not honor the small self-absorbed man in Washington who will waste millions of taxpayer dollars for a parade for his birthday.

This is the kind of grotesque display of power we see in North Korea and Russia … now on American soil.

Everyone should be horrified. Instead of feeding and educating Americans, the baby wants his parade.

I urge everyone to find a protest on Saturday, June 14, and march/walk for “No Kings Day.” Two hundred and fifty years ago, Massachusetts showed England what we thought about being ruled by a king. Donald Trump and our Congress need to be reminded.

Keep it peaceful, Trump already made California ground zero. Don’t feed into Trump’s lunacy.
