Warm, Canadian welcome to President Zelensky! Honoured to have you visit us. 🇨🇦❤️🇺🇦

Birds of a feather always flock together

Eric Trump describes LA protesters as "mongoloids"

12.1 million people made sure Trump had a terrible birthday. Let’s keep it going. What’s next?

As the night went on, protestors continued to peacefully protest on the street. Denver police aggressively blocked off the street, kettled protestors, and used pepper bullets and tear gas. Denver SWAT is seen boxing in protestors from all sides. #50501Movement #NoKings #Denver #Colorado

It was surreal as hell being at the staging area of Pride and getting the call that Justice Forral had been arrested again, this time as they tried to attend pride with their friends. Here’s a picture of @merrywanderer.bsky.social and I reporting as we walked through the parade staging area.

Masked agents in unmarked cars disappearing people from the street and shipping them to a dictator’s prison. Executive branch officials blowing off federal court orders, wrestling members of Congress to the ground and handcuffing them for asking a question. Smells like fascism.

Minority extras & seat fillers wanted Wear red/white/blue A red hat will be provided $1000 Paid in crypto currency *** In this economy- STILL couldn't fill seats

📌Happy birthday, Army. For 250 years you’ve bravely shed blood to fight kings and fascists. Don’t dishonor the sacrifice of our fallen now. Even this Navy guy knows yer too good for that …

Protesters in Washington DC have compared President Donald Trump's military parade to those held in Nazi Germany.

The squeaky tanks driving past quiet, empty stands is amazing

Philly showin' up today

Couple things I learned today: - Seniors are extremely fired up about this - "Fuck ICE" is a normie position now - People are MASSIVELY pissed off about Sen. Padilla being wrestled to the ground in LA - We all we got, we all we need

i'm surprised by how low energy and farcical that whole military parade situation was. I was expecting Moscow 1945 and we got Spirit Halloween instead.

I'm attending No Kings's event, “One Million Rising: One Million Trained, Millions More Empowered” - sign up now to join me! www.mobilize.us/nokings/even...

Across the country, our coalition members are holding candlelight vigils to honor the victims and their families. We’ll end the night with drinks, but right now, prayers come first. If you want to join us, put a candle out on your front porch.

It isn’t lost on me that the suspect in the assassination of one of the most prominent women in Minnesota politics had a target list with abortion providers and advocates. Misogyny is deadly. My heart is with the victims, their families, and everyone affected.

Tim Snyder: Today no kings, tomorrow freedom. There is a better America out there. There is a better America underneath. There is a better America that we can see. There is a better America that we can make. History is in our hands.

Hell yes, Olympia #nokings!

There is nothing more patriotic than standing up for the United States against a wanna be king.

Happy #ObamaAppreciationDay

Atlanta Georgia 6/13/25

Obama appreciation day

So proud of my city. So many good humans who care about democracy and the dignity and rights of folks in the country. So many people marching even if they're afraid. America, 11 million and counting...I am so proud of all of us on this No Kings Day.

In a town where the official population is listed as 1222 (in 2023, but see the comments below the original post) this is somewhere around 8–10 percent of the population who turned out for #NoKings. Way to go West Yellowston!

Massive crowd moving through Seattle. The front of the march has reached Seattle Center. Meanwhile, people are still pouring out of Cal Anderson
