We have self-reports or news accounts from 320 of the 2,000 No Kings Day events across the US today. Up to an unofficial tally of about 575,000 people now. Extrpaolating from that, total would be around 4.5m people, or about 1.3% of the pop. Some error I'm sure. Thanks to everyone crowdsourcing!

The day started with tragedy with political violence in MN and instead of being scared, neighbors SHOWED UP to stand together at No Kings Twin Cities. We packed the Capitol Mall all the way to the Cathedral. Estimate 80,000+ right now. So proud of our state. #nokings #indivisible

I love that a politician can say something like “I believe mice naturally spawn out of grain” and the news will now just treat that as a legitimate line of thought

Remember: Trump retweeted an image of a hammer and underwear to mock the attack of Speaker Pelosi’s husband. They condone and cheer violence against their opponents.

you ever think about how in 2009 DHS released a report about the growing threat of violent domestic terrorism from the right and then Republicans got so mad about it the DHS secretary resigned?

“If you throw a brick at one of our deputies we’re gonna be notifying your family of where to collect your remains because we will kill you, graveyard dead, we’re not gonna play.” - the Brevard County Sheriff, in a live press conference. These guys are foaming at the mouth to go full brownshirts.

it amazes me that to this day, we've got Fox pumping out a constant stream of blatant disinformation, and the MSM firing reporters who dare to express any obvious truth about fascism.

One thing that stood out really powerfully in last night's mayoral debate is that Zohran Mamdani and Brad Lander both operate from the premise that New York City is a wonderful and beautiful and precious place. Andrew Cuomo does not.

Cuomo literally made up a story about a thing that never happened last night, to prove that he can stand up to Trump, and as far as I can tell nobody blinked an eye or even noticed

It is actually nuts that even when the NYC political establishment was presented with a broad field of talented candidates w/ many ideas, in a time of generational change & anti-corruption, they STILL chose to line up behind scandal-ridden Andrew Cuomo. It’s cowardice.

I've seen impeachment talk as pointless, but if Dems take the house back in 26, what's happened this week demands articles instantly be filed against Trump and almost everyone in his cabinet. Nobody will be removed, but that's not the point.

Hey @natastron.nature.com, this ad is absolutely not ok. It makes me super uncomfortable to see jokey sexist-feeling T-shirts on your site. A lot of researchers pay you a lot of money and we should at least get subjected to a better curated set of ads.
