It was disgusting that Minnesota (Dem) leaders told folks to stay home yesterday. Giving in to fear is the last thing we need in these fraught times. He need bravery. The leaders encouraged fear.

Yet another Trump shakedown www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

Are the two people who drove their cars into people yesterday and the person who shot at people in Utah all white men? The person who murdered Democratic politicians yesterday was. Are we allowed to connect the dots? Will be media write exposes asking why white men are so violent? Or no?

The Trump US is a major threat to press freedom worldwide.

The New York Times says Trump's praise-the-dictator parade was overshadowed by the Minnesota killings and Israel's war on Iran. But it doesn't mention that millions of people turned out around the U.S. to protest Dear Leader's fascism. The Paper of Record™, indeed.

A reminder that the Democratic leadership are not of, by, or for ordinary people. They are aspiring oligarchs themselves.

Well past time for big city mayors to call for the arrest of anyone who claims to be law enforcement but wears a mask and/or won’t identify themselves

This was the Four Seasons Total Landscaping of military parades.

This is exactly right. That parade was planned to be that way. There were some brilliant strategists in the military behind this. They knew what they were doing, as did the troops. They told the would-be dictator what they thought of him.

Huge analysis in "Nature" shows that while boys and girls receive similar maths scores at the start of school, within a year there is a substantial divergence suggesting environmental influences are responsible for the gender gap. #mathematics #gender www.nature.com/articles/d41...

This is just a brutal wealth redistribution. The combination of 2025 tariff increases and OBBBA would reduce after-tax-and-transfer incomes on average among the bottom 80% of U.S. households.

MSNBC reporter in gas mask in Los Angeles: I think it was Sheriffs deploying CS gas, tear gas, pepper spray, and flash bang grenades in large numbers. Mounted units pushing against protesters.., every single gathering I saw today was 100% peaceful

Before the cops in LA started escalating things for no reason it was funny how my main takeaway was how much people were looking out for each other in really helpful ways. I’ve never seen so many people with carts giving away free water, sunscreen, snacks, and masks to total strangers.

A very insightful comment.

I have been told 350 people showed up in Vincennes, Indiana. That would be about 2 percent of the population

This is the moment when he realizes what he's become.

When the corporations directly take over the US government.

Mexico is scheduled to play the Dominican Republic on Saturday night at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California, in a group stage match of the Gold Cup. Usually, the Mexican national team matches attract thousands of fans whenever they play in Southern California. apnews.com/article/gold...

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.

Today in Boston. Over a million people turned out. Even the drone couldn't get it all. #NoKingsDay #BostonStrong #ICEProtest

I think this had to have been organized at the highest levels. There's is no way they could have given such a finger to Baby Boy unless it was planned. If the command really wanted a real parade, no way the soldiers would have done this.

Question: Does SecDef Hegseth get fired tomorrow? Or does Trump think this is a raging success? After all, it isn't clear he was awake for much of it.

I can't stop laughing! Nothing says loser like falling asleep at your birthday party.

Wait. That military parade is supposed to make other countries fear and respect us more?

Boston, way to go!

A reminder that police are there to create disorder. The problem in LA isn't just ICE or the National Guard, or the Marines. The problem is as much a brutal and corrupt LA Police Department that routinely gets away with violence against peaceful people & wastes billions that could improve lives.

With the tragic assassination of a Minnesota Democratic leader, I’m going to underline this point again.

that's little rock, arkansas showing the hell up #nokings

Newsom’s social media team is killing it. (This isn’t an old picture. It’s from right now. I asked.) 😂😂😂😂

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

Holy sh*t! Protesters are lined up for a mile in the small town of Geneva, Illinois for the No Kings rally!
