There should be no pay increases until drag shows and CRT are abolished.

Max DeYoung

Adam, your way applies to both sides of the argument.

Vernon Taylor

Couldn't agree more.

Adam

Keeping them safe and telling them that your way is best are different things. Only teaches them to keep blinders on to the world around them.

Max DeYoung

Thank you Will, but at least I care about the health and safety of the children.

Will

Incredibly small minded of you.

This state just put a temporary band-aid on teacher pay that only affects first year teachers. There is no cola raise or state- wide permanent raise for all educators. Missouri is still in the bottom 10 states in the US for pay and nothing permanent is being done.

Felisha

I had no idea MO was in the bottom for teacher pay. I do know they are in the bottom for socialworkers and community based support workers.

They don't want Kings, they want their authoritarianism back, which is what they didn't get when their failed appointed candidate who never got a single primary vote, was attempted to be installed as their continued fascist leader.

Chris Macy

Trump & his evil minions are shredding the constitution

Steve Baumann

Please provide specifics. Never mind, we already know you can't.

Max

Millions protested, proving that there are No Kings in the USA. Thank you for protecting our President Donald J. Trump. We appreciate that so very, very much. Donald also thanks you. Bless all of your little hearts.

Jenny Mummert

The 2025 document, which took years to create, says it all. We are losing the rule of law and our rights under this administration. I believe Trump is a puppet for the far right conservatives who want to alter or destroy our democracy.

Steve Baumann

We want to fix what was broken by Obama. The Biden era was horrific for our country, it stuns me anyone can condone that, much less think Kamala is qualified for squat.

Republicans are trying to democracy.

Laura Cochran

Trump needs to go! Save Democracy!

Max

We have a Federation, Presidential system, Constitutional republic, Federal republic. We do not have a democracy, and we have never had a democracy. Go to school, and learn.

Max

Trump won the popular vote. That's democracy. LOL He also won all six swing states, and 95% of the counties in the USA.

John Rinck

Trump and his regime are breaking Constitutional rules like they're trying to set a record. They've set one. Most corrupt group of people in the history of America.

Tina Mann

To protect the US Constitution and our Democracy from hostile takeover by our current administration.

Steve Baumann

He was ELECTED and stop whining, we put up with far worse, it's time to fix it.

Max

There is no democracy in the USA. Educate yourself.

The only thing being protested here is Trump's landslide victory- spoiled children throwing fits, because they didn't get their way.

Fat Guy Outdoors

I just take witness to who join these protests. I know very soon the majority will die of old age, the rest are lazy and allergic to responsibility and accountability. So they will tear each other apart. Let them expose themselves.

Steve Baumann

These people are progressive socialist aka communist. Also anti semitism seems to run deep with them. Some have laughed and joked about the death of Charlie Kirk, many of these people are flat out evil. Others, nothing more than useful idiots.I can never agree with them. The represent nothing good

Toasty

Where were these 'no kings' protests during the Obama/Biden admin? There was fascism and borderline dictatorship policies being pushed (green new deal, electric car mandates, gun confiscations, suppression of free speech, etc) and silence. Trump is not a king, so stop acting like a serf.

Richard Winkel

I don't think these people know what they're protesting.

Zaos Gonzolez

Donald will be your King whether you like it or not.

Max

Donald is more powerful than a King, because he was elected, in a massive landslide vote, that was not fixed.
