Do you know how badly you have to screw up as a Republican to get this kind of turnout in IDAHO? #NOKINGS

LAPD shooting impact munitions at a non combative crowd. People just sitting and relaxing on benches leap up with their kids. This is incredibly dangerous. These munitions can and do permanently maim and kill. (Lots of studies exist!) Los Angeles!

Oh, and if you want to know how big the Huntington Beach No Kings protest was, we had people lining the street on both sides from 1st all the way up to 7th, plus those at the pier plaza on Main. I think it’s almost half a mile total. Normally we get a crowd at the pier plaza and that’s it.

The day started with tragedy with political violence in MN and instead of being scared, neighbors SHOWED UP to stand together at No Kings Twin Cities. We packed the Capitol Mall all the way to the Cathedral. Estimate 80,000+ right now. So proud of our state. #nokings #indivisible

There was one part of this that gave me confidence. It was when they were rolling the tanks through the street and the tank crews were full of smiles and waving to the admittedly small crowd. This just isn't how you do one of these strong man parades. The soldiers are impassive. They look at ...

Remarkable. MSNC: "I want to reiterate this has been 100% peaceful." Seconds later, LA County sheriffs start firing on the crowd. Yet again, "law enforcement" deliberately escalated.

Can’t believe we’ve lost Melissa Hortman and her husband, Mark. She was a consummate Speaker who led her caucus brilliantly and achieved so much for Minnesota. I’ve campaigned with Melissa throughout the state and was forever impressed by her levelheaded, yet passionate, leadership. (1/2)

NEW Trump has reported earning over $600 million in income over the past year, including more than $50 million in fees from his crypto coin and many millions in fees for foreign properties. Melania earned over $700,000 in speaking fees from the gay conservative group, the Log Cabin Republicans.

“What really stands out to me now is that the biggest source of chaos is the president himself,” said Julian Zelizer, a professor of political history at Princeton University. “Rather than acting as a force to try to bring some kind of reconciliation, calm and stability, he is fueling the fires.”

Masked agents in unmarked cars disappearing people from the street and shipping them to a dictator’s prison. Executive branch officials blowing off federal court orders, wrestling members of Congress to the ground and handcuffing them for asking a question. Smells like fascism.

"I cannot say this strongly enough: until 2026, only two things stand between the authoritarian project and its objectives: the judiciary and a popular protest movement. We have no control over the former. We must not surrender, or abandon, the latter."

📌As always, Madison, WI, more then held its own today protesting against the orange, ghastly wannabe king, but the shadow of the gruesome political slaughter in Minnesota, and the masked, fascist marauders who are sweeping people off our streets loomed menacingly over a democracy in radical decline.

Thousands of peaceful protesters have lined the road for over 8 continuous miles just outside of Washington DC right now! They did not vote for a king and they are well aware that Trump is trying to cut off their health care benefits to give tax breaks to him and his billionaire donors friends.

I'm sorry but the largest protest of my lifetime is not the 7th or 8th biggest news story in the country behind "what does Gen Z want from Instagram?" This shit is humiliating. Rearrange your layout to meet this moment. Omitting the thing happening in every American city is malpractice.

Congratulations to the U.S. Army on its 250th birthday. It's a shame that this day is being marred by using soldiers to indulge the narcissism of a would-be king, instead of honoring the democratic values so many have served and fought and sacrificed for. They resisted tyrants - so should we.

Veterans are speaking out. Trump’s use of Troops against Americans isn’t leadership—it’s an abuse of power. We served the Constitution, not a king, a bully, or a dictator. Watch and share these powerful words from those who’ve worn the uniform.

The shoving and handcuffing of Senator Padilla after clearly identifying himself should shock all Americans. He tried to ask a question of Secretary Noem about the tactics of her agency on the streets of LA. She didn’t tell the truth as the video clearly showed.

HE has continued to throw gasoline on the raging fires HE has stoked when HE started questioning President Obama’s citizenship. To hell with him."

law enforcement officials say they made a proactive check at Rep. Hortman's home after a lawmaker who lived nearby was shot and found a "police vehicle in the driveway with emergency lights and what appeared to be a police officer at the door coming out of the house." He was actually the gunman.
