Tens of thousands came out to #NoKings San Diego. Zero arrests. The only violence is that I was stung by a bee.

Raskin: You are not our king, and we are not your subjects. We will never be your subjects. All of us born here on this land are citizens and your executive order is nothing but bad graffiti on the Constitution, and we're going to wash it off today

And there it is. The Minnesota assassin who shot Democratic lawmakers “voted for Donald Trump and was a strong Trump supporter,” according to his best friend.

An INCREDIBLE showing for the NO KINGS rally in Woodland Hills, CA—a suburb in the valley of Los Angeles. A quick report from on the ground.

All the credit that Tim Walz got as a VP candidate for good stuff that Minnesota has done? Melissa Hortman (and a bunch of other women) led the hard fight to get bills on his desk and make it politically safe for him to sign.

This is my friend—beaten and dragged by Georgian police and court bailiffs. It’s been two days, and she still can’t get them to even file a report. Meanwhile, a female journalist is in jail (and faces 4-7 years) for slapping an officer, whose cheek might have gone red at the time.

Our military deserves better than this empty charade. Yikes. The tank squeaking over silence is incredible.

I know it’s not really done but it would be pretty badass if Mayor Read were to say to Miller, “Blow it out your puckered ass, Gollum.”

It’s not hyperbole to say that the deaths in Minnesota are on the GOP’s hands. They’ve built this political environment and they’ve allowed a demagogue to spread hate. This is entirely on them.

Remarkable. MSNC: "I want to reiterate this has been 100% peaceful." Seconds later, LA County sheriffs start firing on the crowd. Yet again, "law enforcement" deliberately escalated.

In a Gangster State, the dear leader wastes other people's money on military parades to broadcast his fake strength, attacks the legislative branch and destroys programs that benefit the people.

Today we showed the world where the American PEOPLE stand. This REGIME doesn’t represent us. We didn’t VOTE for this! These traitors completed a COUP ushered in by SKKKOTUS & we the people have to OVERTHROW them. We are gaining momentum. We are BUILDING the opposition. Thank you everyone for TODAY.

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.

There is only one side in American politics that consistently supports and endorses political violence. People need to stop being afraid to say so.

The targeted attack on Minnesota state lawmakers, Sen. John Hoffman and Rep. Melissa Hortman, is absolutely horrific. Violence like this has no place in a democracy. I’m praying for their healing, their families, and every public servant who has to wonder if doing their job makes them a target.

law enforcement officials say they made a proactive check at Rep. Hortman's home after a lawmaker who lived nearby was shot and found a "police vehicle in the driveway with emergency lights and what appeared to be a police officer at the door coming out of the house." He was actually the gunman.
