Holy crap. The US-UK trade deal is a blank sheet of paper and only Trump signed it. (Genuine screen grab).

All snark aside about the terrible Atlantic piece in favor of the fascist parade or the general downplaying of #NoKings, if you're going to take action, it's helpful to know that MSM orgs rarely support acts of protest. As a rule, they dismiss protestors or paint them as violent thugs. Be prepared.

INSPO GOSLING: Last week I posted this little baby graylag goose falling out of their mother's wing. The next day, they were running around untethered, drinking from the lake, foraging for hours, and attempting the impossible LEAP! But the leap was possible. And they did it. As can we. 🪶 🐣

When I tell you Los Angeles is an occupied city/county, this is what I mean… Yesterday, ICE agents showed up to a regular Saturday swap meet with armed Marines and a military helicopter overhead, like it’s a fucking war zone.

You can always count on The New York Times to minimize the scale and impact of protest. Yesterday's 2000+ No Kings actions smashed records for the most demonstrations in a single day. So the Times decided to publish a horseshit map of just a handful of "confirmed locations." We're not fooled.

Went to the @nytimes.com site and have never been more glad that I cancelled my subscription. Scrolling around and saw ZERO mention of yesterday's massive and historic pro-democracy protests. I'm sure there's a story somewhere and I know the print edition has something on the front page. But WTF?!

I'll miss tonight's @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social rally with AOC, but that's AOK because we just had a record field day in Jamaica. What started off as a team of 2 in February has blossomed into a team of 100, with as many as 45 showing up in a single day. Today: 3 shifts. We're building something.

Hi everyone I was denied entry, detained, and deported from the USA over the last 48 hours because of my reporting on the Columbia student protests I arrived back in Melbourne hours ago and had my phone handed back to me upon landing

Trump keeps it succinct, that thing he’s known to do when something goes really well for him.

@msnbc.com reporter at the 1:15 mark. “The chaos you’re seeing is not the result of peaceful protestors, it’s the result of actions of law enforcement, specifically the Los Angeles sheriff’s department.” #nokings

As the curfew approaches, LAPD are shooting less lethal munitions near downtown’s South Broadway and West 3rd Street, in an ongoing skirmish off of the No Kings protests. In some cases it’s not clear why police are targeting the people they’re shooting. www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/arti...

This is the first act of violence I have seen today and, it is LAPD against an elderly man.

Angel City FC showed its support for immigrant culture during Saturday's home match amid immigration raids and the resulting protests in Los Angeles. The club distributed 10,000 shirts which read “Immigrant City Football Club" to fans at the game. 🔗 www.nytimes.com/athletic/642...

Like 11 million people perfectly capable of marching and yelling a bunch without anything violent happening until the most consistently terrified people on the planet (cops) decide to start shit

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

Huge turnout at the #NoKings rally in Hattiesburg, Missisisppi today, wrapping up and down both sides of the streets around City Hall. I'd estimate that about 300 people showed up, along with 2 pro-Trump counter-protesters.

On #NoKings day, I’m incredibly grateful to the folks @indivisible.org. They’ve been critical to the resistance against Trump. They’re a wildly effective organization. I’m especially grateful for the leadership of @leahgreenberg.bsky.social and @ezralevin.bsky.social. We need y’all.❤️🫡🇺🇸

Especially if you're on the fence about it, protest today. Fascism is isolating and lonely. Its very goal is to make you feel like you're the only person unwilling to accept a cult of personality. On days like today you fully realize there are more of us than there are them. You will feel better.

Melissa Hortman, who was assassinated last night, was the Speaker of the Minnesota House in the 2023-2024 session, when Democrats ran the state government. That means she had a leading role in shepherding the many landmark reforms that Dems adopted in that period—an important legacy. Brief 🧵.

NO KINGS DAY! Going to a rally today? Know your rights before you go! Turn off your biometrics to unlock your phone, before you head out to the rally. Your friendly neighborhood activist.

My mother, who does not attend protests, is going to a No Kings event in her area. She's an older woman with debilitating health problems, so this is a big outing for her. For the people acting like these events might be scary, my 67-year-old mom with arthritis and COPD is attending. You'll be fine.

They wanted max cruelty. Shock and awe for the cameras. But all they did was traumatize a bunch of poor kids who’ll never forget it. An L.A. mom, US citizen, watched as unmarked vehicles rolled up. Masked, heavily armed ICE agents, guns drawn. And Cosplay Kristi Noem right there playing warlord!
