On a packed trolly heading to the #NoKings protest. There are people of all ages here, and so many more waiting to get on. Everyone is chatting and making friends. The solidarity is incredible 🚫👑 (Sharing the first sign I saw in the station, since I didn’t have time to make my own sign)

If you ask them, which is one way of answering your question, many of those who find it hard to say "that's a lie" will tell you that in order to report that as a fact we need to know the motivation of the speaker, and we have no access to that, so it's just an opinion, and we don't deal in opinion.

The most broken thing the #BrokenTimes doesn't do today: It doesn't cover the NoKings protests on its home page (can you find it?). There is a link to a 6/11 story about other protests. There is plenty of coverage of Trump's fascist parade. The rest of us? No.

My grandmother was a young pregnant Jewish woman alone on a train in Poland during WWII when a German soldier told her to get off at the next stop because there wouldn't be any soldiers waiting at the station. She survived because, in that moment, a soldier chose the right thing over obeying orders.

My team and I at the Crowd Counting Consortium (@[email protected], Soha Hammam, & Chris Shay) have a new piece out: wagingnonviolence.org/2025/06/amer.... In it, we show that through May 2025, the size and scale of anti-Trump protests have dwarfed those in 2017. 🧵
