This is a really crappy headline. Extremists were driving into the #NoKings protests.

Protesters formed a human banner at Ocean Beach during the "No Kings" protests in San Francisco on Saturday. The protest is among nationwide demonstrations against President Donald Trump. 📸: Santiago Mejia

This time-lapse video of protesters marching down Broadway in Oakland for No Kings Day gives an idea of how many people turned out today @sfchronicle.com

Of course my finger got in the shot. I was sopping wet at the rail station, and wanted to grab a pic before my sign disintegrated. #NoKings

Dear Kristi Noem, #NoKings

You can’t see me bc I’m holding a flag but guys I live in a 2k person extremely rural town in one of the reddest counties of WI. So many people showed up there was a line all the way to the highway. I often feel a bit afraid due to my identity in this area but #nokings brought out so many

NEW: Democracy is alive in Philly! Amazing scenes in Philadelphia as thousands hit the streets for the anti-Trump protest. #NoKings #50501Movement

HARD TRUTH

Entering a home without a warrant

Proud Boys with badges.

Mayors, Governors, Judges, Senators. Students, mothers, cancer patients. No one is safe. This is a regime. This isn’t our America. No Kings.

Taking bets on how long until Trump claims Dems control the weather…

The Second Circuit Court denied Trump’s appeal in the E. Jean Carroll defamation case. Two Trump-appointed judges dissented, objecting to the Access Hollywood tape as evidence. Trump’s last resort: a U.S. Supreme Court appeal. www.rawstory.com/trump-e-jean...

History will not be kind to Speaker Johnson. Nor should it be.

Fucking called it.

Wait til the end

These are the people that make America great 🇲🇽🇺🇸

House Democrats need to bring articles of impeachment against Kristi Noem, while Senate Democrats need to bring that chamber to a fucking halt.

Gov. Pritzker: “It's wrong to deploy the National Guard and active duty Marines into an American city over the objection of local law enforcement, just to inflame a situation and create a crisis.”

🚨 Secretary Noem basically said that her agency is now dedicated to forcible regime change…in American cities and states. There 👏🏽 is 👏🏽 a 👏🏽 name 👏🏽 for 👏🏽 this

What happened to Senator Padilla is not homeland security. This is homeland fascism. This is homeland authoritarianism.

The Senator was in the building for official business. The FBI Police knew who he was and where he was. Any other message is pure spin.

Mace: Were you at Tiananmen Square? Walz: Yes? Mace: What is a woman? Walz: I don’t know what you want me to say. Mace: I want you say a woman like me is an adult female. Y’all are the party of violence! You are a bigot. A misogynist. AOC: That was some kind of Bingo right there.

House Dems are demanding that Noem testify before Congress after Sen. Padilla was detained by federal agents at her DHS press conference in LA.

Yesterday, I met with a 12 year old boy in Oxnard, CA. His mom and dad have been fieldworkers for over 20 years. ICE agents snatched his parents from the fields and left this boy alone with no clue when he’ll see them again. A 6th grader.

I recently gave my first major political speech of this campaign season to retire Lauren Boebert. Like, share, follow, pitch in if you can. LET'S GO!!

Sure are gonna be a lot of guns at the big military parade this weekend…👀

By now, we've all seen the video of Senator Alex Padilla (D-CA) being forcibly removed and handcuffed for asking a question during Kristi Noem's press conference. But what Noem said just moments before the video was taken is "classic authoritarian red-baiting," points out @davidcorn.bsky.social.

Such a sweet smile.
