Happy Father’s Day to all the incredible dads and father figures. Today, we honor and celebrate you. I’m grateful every day for the blessing of being a father, it’s one of the greatest joys of my life.

After yesterday’s massive turnout at No Kings rallies, let’s remember to bring that same energy to the midterms. Please and thank you?

Turtle Mutual Aid:

THE $45M THOSE REPUBLICANS SPENT ON THAT PARADE SHOULD HAVE WENT TO THE VETERANS SLEEPING ON THE STREETS OF AMERICA!

I wouldn't know but I can ask you what Bernie's cock taste like. Is this you?

I'm not going to try to thread these. Posting 4 at a time. #NoKings #HSV #Huntsville #Alabama. Signs are still my favorite part. I never could get a good shot of how large the crowd was. With the rain & proximity to restaurants, it was pretty fluid. Great people. Really enjoyed it.

If they think we’re going to stop, they’re f*ckin’ dead wrong!

No Kings Jackson Hole, WY this am. Delightful to see so many people show up to remind folks that “No one is illegal on stolen lands” #nokings #wildwest #protestsky

MLK III leading No Kings Day in Philly!! 💙👊🇺🇸

Internet trolls are making a mockery of Donald Trump‘s beloved military parade.

Probably my favorite tifo ever and hearing Allianz roar as it went up got me choked up.

I won't tell another how to practice their own faith, but I will tell you always LEAD BY EXAMPLE Do as I do, is always the right path when leading www.huffpost.com/entry/pope-l...

Donald Trump is a mad king. He’s deported a 4-year old and arrested a U.S. Senator. Between those two fall the rest of us. He must be stopped.

It is clear that there is something about the configuration of modern society - how we communicate, how we gain attention, the way ideas gain popularity - that leads to the continual advancement of extremist beliefs, especially on the right. Our job is to figure out what that is, and shut it down.

Wishing a happy Father’s Day to all the dads and father figures in Delaware and across the country—including my dad, Dave!

Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Snapped by my friend Clare at the #Atlanta #NoKings Rally today. THANK YOU #IndivisibleATL for spending months training marshals and medics to keep protesters safe and hydrated. @indivisibleatl.bsky.social @indivisible.org

🤔

If only all these people marching voted for Harris

My 82-year-old mom’s choir gave a Pride-themed concert today that said No Kings, only Queens!

Honestly I still can’t stop laughing 😂😅🤣

Rand Paul: "I've never liked the idea of the parade. I grew up in the '70s and '80s, and the only parades I can remember are Soviet parades for the most part or North Korean parades. The parades I remember from our history were different...we never glorified weapons so much...then there is the cost"

America, you showed up yesterday. You stood up for our Country, our democracy & our Constitution- impactful display of patriotism. Now we put that energy into action: 👥 Join @FlaDems to help us organize on the ground ☎️ Call your elected officials We the people, will win!

Thank you, North Mississippi!! An estimated 350 resisters and persisters came out today in Tupelo to say: “NO KINGS!!” @indivisible.org @dailyjournal.bsky.social @maddow.msnbc.com

🎵 The Bronx is up and the Battery’s down …

The most consequential Speaker in state history.

I am heartbroken beyond words that Speaker Melissa Hortman and her husband Mark have died in a violent and politically motivated shooting. Melissa was an exceptional public servant. She was smart and funny and so dedicated to making Minnesota work better for all of us.

"This was an act of targeted political violence," Gov. Tim Walz said. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

When you kill the DEI so you have no drums.

I am horrified by the killing of State Speaker Emerita Melissa Hortman and her husband Mark, and the shooting of State Senator John Hoffman and his wife Yvette. I am praying for their recovery and the entire Minnesota community. 1/2

Karen Bass: "There is no comparison [with the 1992 riots]. And unfortunately that is what is being pushed, as though the city is in chaos, there's civil unrest everywhere. For most Angelenos, they're like, 'What city are they describing?' They are definitely not describing Los Angeles."

This is the definition of patriotism 👏🏼👏🏼👊🏻✊🇺🇸 Marine officer in LA speaks out against the rise of fascism in our country!! 🇺🇸💙

SUNDAY DELIGHT LET ME HELP MOM...

To the dads who protected us, provided for us, showed up—and taught us how to stand ten toes down: we see you, we love you, we thank you. Happy Father’s Day.

I love this. 2017, Billy Earl Dade Middle School in Dallas planned a “Breakfast with Dads” for boys whose fathers couldn’t attend. They asked for 50 volunteers—nearly 600 men showed up. This Father’s Day, let’s remember: You don’t have to be someone’s dad to be their example.

Congrats to EVERYONE!! 😎 It looks like the ‘3% threshold of peaceful protestors’ showed up for ‘No Kings Day’…👇 11+ MILLION in the streets of America is a danger to Trump, and he knows it. Great. Job. To. The. Real. Patriots. 🇺🇸✨

The Hortman family helped raise and train dogs to partner with veterans. One of the many reasons we will miss Melissa and Mark.

Compare and contrast scenes from yesterday in America. On the one hand, Trump's low-energy Dear Leader parade (that cost you $45 million). On the other, millions of people across the country gathering peacefully to say: Here, we have no kings.

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

Schiff: "In the first administration, there were at least a few people in the cabinet of some independence who could say, 'No, Mr. President, that's a lawless idea, that's a stupid idea.' But there's no one in this current admin to tell POTUS 'that's a stupid idea'... there's nothing but sycophants"

It was the honor of a lifetime to speak at the historic San Diego #NoKings march today. Here are two short clips, with my gratitude. 1 of 2:

Footage of the Minnesota assassin Vance Luther Boelter, a life long registered republican and "Christian" nationalist incel that hated women. He's 100% MAGA.

Padilla on Noem: "How does the cabinet secretary not know the senator from California when she steps foot into Los Angeles? She came through the Senate for confirmation."

For nearly a decade, since Election Day 2016, the media and politicians have had a choice: Recognize that we were in a crisis like no other in our lifetimes, or pretend that we aren't. Nearly all politicians, and too many in the media, have chosen the latter.

I thought I was losing my mind when this happened because it was an attempted assassination of a national political leader and it was treated like it was nothing.
