Over the past 48 hours, TikTokers — and BlueSkiers, Threaders, and even Twitterers —  took a cue from 2020 K-Pop stans and reserved tickets to a trump rally they weren't gonna use. www.forbes.com/sites/emilyb...

Trump’s unhappy. But not unhappy enough.

Imagine throwing a huge masturbatory birthday party that nobody came to. Meanwhile, millions of people across the world threw huge events devoted to how much of a piece of garbage you are. Oh wait.

I have a lot of issues with Gavin Newsom but he is calling out Trump in a way other major leaders aren’t and if he causes Trump to have a stroke I will buy him a latte

no idea what the numbers were but my firsthand estimate is that there were a fuckton of people marching in NYC

Nobody there but scammers. Incredible Fyre Festival vibes.

Not the first time republicans did something and no one came

Man I’m not criticizing anyone who gets their ass up and marches around for something good, I don’t care if they’ve got a sign like “Domuld Drumpf hope u like Hamberders” they bought markers for that shit good for them

I’m not so sure this doesn’t change anything. There’s trying to be a dictator thinking you have big dick energy, and there’s trying to be a dictator knowing you have small dick energy.

bit embarassing to see the clips of the military parade when you've seen a Chinese one. say what you like about the petty rancid fascists of the CCP but at least they know how to put on a show.

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

no… no, they can’t possibly be… oh my god, they wouldn’t… they can’t be… YES, THEY ARE PLAYING FORTUNATE SON

Nobody came to his Kim Jong Un parade. Nobody. Good. Damn good.

If Hegseth gets shitcanned for this wet fart of a parade instead of his general incompetence, I’ll still take it

this man is realizing what the reaction is going to be when he dies

Donald Trump does NOT want you to share this footage of his pathetically tiny birthday parade crowd.

Genie: ok what do you want for your birthday Trump: a military parade, oh, and also millions of people on the street chanting my name Genie: okie dokie

This guy jumped out of his truck and tried to steal a flag from No Kings protestors in Phoenix. It didn’t go so well for him.

Trump looking absolutely inconsolable at his fascist-themed 79th birthday party which no one turned up to other than those who had to because he's their boss.

Adding “chupame los huevos” to my knowledge of Spanish.

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 love that a politician can say something like “I believe mice naturally spawn out of grain” and the news will now just treat that as a legitimate line of thought

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

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.

This military parade could’ve been a Signal chat

genuinely hilarious compared to the scale of the protests nationwide huge loser energy from mister tough guy

Boston showed up for No Kings Day!

I am beginning to suspect that Americans don’t really care for kings

I'm floored. This is ONE stretch of ONE side of the street in deep red, small town Knoxville, TN today. This is a city that Trump won in 2024 by 20+ points. The scope of these protests are massive—American from both sides of the aisle are pissed. There will be no kings.

If 102-year-old Kurt Goldschmidt, a survivor of the Holocaust, says "no kings" you'd best get up and stand up for your rights before it's too late. Mr. Goldschmidt knows all too well what he's seeing in Trump's America. It was an honor to stand with him today. #NoKingsInAmerica

They launched a coup, suffered no consequences for it, won back power, and have used the power to pardon everyone involved while remaking the country through violence and intimidation. It’s just ridiculous to talk about the political violence of yelling at ICE agents within that context.

I will hold the line on this. Right-wing violence has far more support, materially, institutionally and ideologically, in the U.S. than left-wing violence. There is no both-sidesing it.

We should've made a bigger national crisis of someone breaking into Nancy Pelosi's home & trying to kill her husband. But then, we should've made a bigger national crisis about hundreds of someones breaking into the Capitol & trying to steal an election. But then, we should've done lots of things.

Look at downtown LA right now
