So it’s just going to be every cops everywhere now that uses excessive force upon people and violates their constitutional rights. This is Charleston, SC and they did this for all of 10 people just exercising their first amendment.

We’re honored to report that over 11 million showed up for today’s No Kings protest, and totals are still coming in. Just… wow. WOW 😮! There’s nothing more to say.

Boston: 950k Philadelphia: 180k LA: 315k Chicago: 85k NYC: 175k Miami: 65k SF: 110k Dallas: 35k Houston: 40k Seattle: 90k San Diego: 85k

Oh my god. Trump’s army themed birthday parade is currently being broadcast by Fox, and between the circus voice announcer, the low to no [visible] attendance, and the weird, silent gaps between each unit walking by….the whole thing is not at all what I expected. It’s sad trombone level awkward.

A traffic stop is causing outrage, after a young man born and raised on Long Island was pulled over and searched by ICE agents. He said it was simply because he’s Latino. When ICE found out he’s a U.S. citizen, they let him go—without giving an explanation or apology—but the damage was already done.

It’s not hyperbole to say that the deaths in Minnesota are on the GOP’s hands. They’ve built this political environment and they’ve allowed a demagogue to spread hate. This is entirely on them.

And there it is. The Minnesota assassin who shot Democratic lawmakers “voted for Donald Trump and was a strong Trump supporter,” according to his best friend.

KMBC news in KC is reporting around 10k for the No Kings protest.

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

they're having a hard time hiding their boredom

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 you Seattle. #abolishice #nokings

Live look at Detroit, Michigan. Let's go, Motor City! Even Fox's streaming channel is calling the No Kings Day rallies "massive." 🍿

NEW: Dallas, Texas right now. Absolutely insane turnout. Tens of thousands of anti-Trump protestors have taken over downtown. I have seen enough footage to be assured that millions have taken to the streets of America today. 👏 #NoKings #50501Movement (🎥 Dallas Texas TV)

#SupportIndependentJournalism This is what happens when you spread hate! youtube.com/shorts/iDb14...

Raskin: You are not our king, and we are not your subjects. We will never be your subjects. All of us born here on this land are citizens and your executive order is nothing but bad graffiti on the Constitution, and we're going to wash it off today

Reporter: I'm going to show you what 20,000 people in the streets of downtown Los Angeles looks like

These are some of the countries holding events under the 'No Tyrants' banner to reject authoritarianism and show solidarity with the US - based 'No Kings' movement.

The shooter was Evangelical and “sought out militant Islamists in order to share the gospel and tell them that violence wasn't the answer.” Suspect in Minnesota Shooting Linked to Security Company, Evangelical Ministry | WIRED

Back at the Capitol in Olympia, WA #NoKings

Just a few days ago, Speaker Mike Johnson, the puritanical pixie twit, refused to rule out arresting Governor Newsom. He added that Newsom should be “tarred and feathered,” a form of torture popularized by vigilantes. He is a reckless hypocrite.

Holy crap! No Kings Philly.

#Boise #Idaho showing up for #NoKings

Over 4.8 million and counting and many events haven’t even kicked off yet. We’re aiming for over 10 million today to hit the 3.5% rule. The crowds are massive and still growing. We are so proud of all of you. Huge shoutout to Texas you showed up!

Look at downtown LA right now

Los Angeles. Just wow.

WTF! This is Candace Taylor a newly elected far right district chair in Georgia and if you thought that Boebert and MTG were dumb this one takes the cake! #cdnpoli

Good Morning and let’s celebrate #Obama 🇺🇸 Admiration, love, and respect are what I have always felt about this man 💙✌🏽🇺🇸 #ObamaDay #SheShed 🇺🇸

Tambourines. Trumpets. "Blasting horns so the little fuckers had a terrible sleep.” Demonstrators outside LA-area hotels—where ICE agents are believed to be sleeping—are employing creative methods to keep those agents awake. @annamerlan.bsky.social writes on "No sleep for ICE."

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.

Fox 9 Minneapolis reports that two Minnesota lawmakers and their spouses were shot by someone impersonating a police officer. Their conditions are not known. www.fox9.com/news/melissa...

Walz announces that Rep. Melissa Hortman is dead as a result of a "politically motivated assassination"

BREAKING: Federal Judge Breyer just ruled that Trump must revert control of the National Guard back to Governor Gavin Newsom because Trump’s actions were illegal. A victory for the rule of law! Trump is not king!

Nothing says "My country is great again" like promoting child labour and removing breaks for children at work. Florida is truly paving the way for the US to be what its rich owners always wanted it to be, a factory where exploiting the peasants is the law.

IMPORTANT: Before the fascist attack on Senator Alex Padilla, Kristi Noem said that her gestapo in California were staying to "liberate the city socialist and the burdensome leadership that this governor and that this mayor have placed on this country." Don't let that slide by.
