Based on crowd-sourced records of No Kings Day event turnout, and extrapolating for the cities where we don't have data yet, it looks like roughly 4-6 million people protested Trump across the U.S. yesterday. That's nearly 2% of the U.S. pop! Mobilized anti-Trump resistance is exceeding 2017 levels

This is serious, rigorous analysis and it should change the way the media has been covering these protests. These were, in the aggregate, massive.

This family is going through an awful lot. Worthy of donating what you can to help via the GoFundMe or by attending the @shelmaliers fundraiser on June 22. #Wexford tinyurl.com/mu6numc7

The many, many ‘keep dogs on a lease’ signs in these areas seem to make little difference. It’s a real shame.

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.

Another example of the right wing media machine selectively presenting and then twisting “evidence” into their strategic frames. This is how they work ALL THE TIME. As soon as an event happens, it’s all hands on deck to assemble evidence to fit their frames.

I'm looking for a good civil rights lawyer to come on @thecrumbling.bsky.social at some point soon and talk about substantive due process, the fifth amendment, and a few other things. Anyone got any recs? Tag people if you want.

Don’t think I’ve ever muttered the words “fuck me sideways” quite so much reading a story as this one.

Couldn’t have said it better. “Germany has been in a miserable position against the threat posed by smaller #drones, and this applies to every aspect of defense: detecting, intercepting,shooting down. And there are reasons for this: Germany has long avoided taking a clear stance on the drone issue”

You will, I hope, allow me a little moment of self-congratuation on the news (2026) from the DPC that it has found that 1) The PSC card project does collect biometric data and 2) it was illegal for it to do so.

I’m hearing the Dept’s press people are now arguing with journalists that it never said it wasn’t collecting biometric data. Check the video I’ve put in half way down this Gist of the Minister denying biometric data use to assess that claim yourself. www.thegist.ie/the-gist-not...

So let’s just get this straight: the guy who set up a concentration camp situation for Trump who wanted to send people he claimed were gang members from MS13 there is actually working with MS13 for real by diverting USAID (which Elon gutted) funds meant for his people to MS13.
