“No Kings Day”: A compilation

We, the people, have spoken!

Despite the horrific murders that happened….SILENCE WAS NEVER AN OPTION‼️For an event that was supposedly canceled, you all SHOWED OUT!!!!! So proud of Minnesota‼️

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

For the History Books: For the First Time Ever, All 50 States Are Protesting the President—At the Same Time!

Out in Portland today, the march is crossing Hawthorne bridge and there are still people leaving the starting area. It's BIG.

You can’t see me bc I’m holding a flag but guys I live in a 2k person extremely rural town in one of the reddest counties of WI. So many people showed up there was a line all the way to the highway. I often feel a bit afraid due to my identity in this area but #nokings brought out so many

EVEN ATHEIST ME STANDS WITH AND LOVES POPE LEO

This is awesome lol

Chicago ✊

This is mind blowing. 🤯 we all knew they did something but this, this goes way deeper than I ever realized. No wonder Mango was screaming rigged, every action is projection with him. 😳 substack.com/home/post/p-...

It was *almost* worth your and my tax dollars to humiliate this POS.

Wilmington, NC IN THE HOUSE!

If you believe that Noem's flammable rhetoric the other day had nothing to do with the murders in Minnesota, you are incredibly naïve.

Am I starting to like Gavin Newsom… I think I am!

So somebody PLEASE explain to me why waving the flag of Mexico was treasonous but the White House pushes out the Russian flag on a DoD post for Flag Day and saying Happy Russia National Day is somehow fine?? What the absolute Fuck??

It most certainly is!

I was looking for a good overhead shot of the crowd in NYC. This would explain why we literally couldn’t move for ages! Good job neighbors!

97% of extremist-related murders in the U.S. in 2024 were linked to right-wing extremists. It’s not a political movement anymore - it’s a hobby for failed men with too much testosterone and not enough brain cells.

LA is out there GETTING IT!

Yesterday, millions of us reasserted the “We” in "We the people." We gained strength from our solidarity. We celebrated our numbers and our power. We will be steadfast. We will not cower to a dictator. We will win.

"How does it feel to get arrested at 87 years old? He said "I'm just beginning!"

11 MILLION PEOPLE!! 💥💥💥 Are we nearing the magic 3.5%?? Never forget….WE hold the power. #nokings

👏👏👏

💯

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."

Just want to take a moment to shout out the international reporters helping us get the real story out. When an 80-year-old veteran with a walker is hauled off with his hands zip-tied behind his back, and the media spins it as a “threatening breach” of a police barricade

Crowd keeps growing #nokings in Kansas City

Art of the Deal!

It's hard for me to square the phrase "posing as ICE agents" when it appears that any meathead can throw on self-bought body armor and ziptie someone and it's completely sanctioned by the state

A lot of current events for me to blog about, and I will later today. But for now, there's the comfort of playing Wordle with all my Bluesky friends. And thanks to some logic & some process of elimination, I was able to solve it in 4. And how did you do? Wordle #1,457 4/6 🟨🟨⬜⬜⬜ ⬜🟨🟨⬜⬜ ⬜⬜🟩⬜🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩

So proud to be a part of this amazing morning. Location ocean beach San Francisco #nokings

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

Today, ICE tried to sneak immigrant check-ins at an unmarked SF facility at 478 Tehama St on an unusual weekend schedule. But by 7AM, hundreds of community members showed up in force to shut it down. Money for jobs and education, not for war and deportations! ICE OUT OF EVERYWHERE!
