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

Sen. Amy Klobuchar dined with Melissa Hortman, a Minnesota lawmaker and decades-long friend, just hours before she and her husband were shot and killed in what authorities are saying was a politically motivated killing. “I wish everyone had known her like we knew her,” Klobuchar told POLITICO.

Melissa Hortman was a Democrat. Murdered for being a Democrat. Every headline should say so. This was political terrorism.

Welp, the verdict is in… Trump’s parade is a $40 million taxpayer-funded flop. A waste. A total dud, and he’s not looking happy about it. Actually, no one is. A fascist cosplay gone wrong.

🏆 to whoever came up with and coordinated the No Kings protest at Ocean Beach, San Francisco. Don’t miss it…absolute fire.

Pussy Riot on the steps of City Hall in Downtown Los Angeles, unfurling a banner that says IT’S BEGINNING TO LOOK A LOT LIKE RUSSIA. #NoKings

Wanna give a huge shoutout to the volunteers from @indivisible.org and elsewhere who did so much to make #NoKings happen. Thank you all so much!!

Thousands of peaceful protesters have lined the road for over 8 continuous miles just outside of Washington DC right now! They did not vote for a king and they are well aware that Trump is trying to cut off their health care benefits to give tax breaks to him and his billionaire donors friends.

“No Kings Day”: A compilation

We are now tallying 2.6m attendance for No Kings Day events today, with 700 out of 2,100 records. The projection is that we'd be able to count somewhere between 4 and 6.5m people, if all sites reported. (The goal is to provide a good initial est., not a complete one.) docs.google.com/spreadsheets...

Today in Boston. Over a million people turned out. Even the drone couldn't get it all. #NoKingsDay #BostonStrong #ICEProtest

Just how racist is Stephen Miller? Even if you think you know, this timeline is wild www.tiktok.com/t/ZTjtrkpqr/

Minnesota's Democrats & Republicans speak with one voice to condemn political violence.

I'm sorry but the largest protest of my lifetime is not the 7th or 8th biggest news story in the country behind "what does Gen Z want from Instagram?" This shit is humiliating. Rearrange your layout to meet this moment. Omitting the thing happening in every American city is malpractice.

The annual financial disclosure form, which appeared to cover the 2024 calendar year, shows the president’s push into crypto added substantially to his wealth but he also reported large fees from developments and revenues from his other businesses.

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

The scale of the rally in Portland is MASSIVE. Simultaneously crossing the Morrison and Hawthorne Bridges in one long parade of democracy. Tens of thousands of people. #NoKings

I’m on the Mall for the festivities preceding the Trump’s parade tonight. Remember: the parade is doling out federal money to various MAGA operatives in a boondoggle that is just getting started as the group running it gears up for the country's 250th birthday. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

"No More Tyrants" Rally in Ottawa, Canada at the US Embassy. My favourite sign: No-Faux-King-Way 😁 Canada stands with our democracy-loving American neighbours. 🇨🇦🇺🇲

This is heartbreaking. (via someone at the St. Paul rally)

mRNA technology was once the toast of the scientific world, credited for saving millions of lives and hailed by Trump as a “modern-day” miracle. Now it’s under threat www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

Since the start of President Donald Trump’s second term, U.S. immigration officials have deputized a record number of local police to function as deportation agents, according to a new investigation by ProPublica and @azluminaria.org.

The American flag isn’t a brand. It isn’t a weapon of the MAGA Right. It’s a symbol of progress, of shared responsibility, and of the freedom we owe one another. It’s time we reclaim it. www.chamberlainnetwork.us/the-report/f...

Two-thirds of voters at Indiana University Bloomington’s sole on-campus polling site used their university ID to vote last fall. Indiana banned students from using these IDs for voting this spring. boltsmag.org/indiana...

ICYMI — Some harsh self-criticism here: “Our president will start a war with Iran because he has absolutely no ability to negotiate. He’s weak and he’s ineffective.” (He was talking about Obama 😬)

federal immigration agent arrived at World Cup party attended by Miami-Dade County’s mayor, who is calling the incident “deeply troubling” and a potential warning sign that international soccer fans won’t feel safe traveling to Miami next year for World Cup www.miamiherald.com/news/local/c...

Workers are "terrified" as immigration agents sweep farms, the president of United Farm Workers says, adding that Americans should think about the "human loss" as well as "crops rotting" in the fields.

Trump has pledged to restore Confederate names to military bases, even though it would violate a statute passed by Congress. These names belong to traitors who led a rebellion against America. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/10/u...

THE AMERICAN MEDICAL ASSOCIATION CALLS FOR A SENATE INVESTIGATION INTO RFK, JR. "The resolution’s sponsor, Dr. Jason Goldman, urged his colleagues to support the request for an investigation to ensure the AMA is not “on the wrong side of history.” chicago.suntimes.com/health/2025/...

The president is throwing a military parade today, despite his track record of disrespecting veterans and service members and cutting 83k jobs from the Dept. of Veterans Affairs. Former VA Secretary David Shulkin joins me at 10aET for the truth behind Trump's record with the military & vets. #Velshi

Trump wants to look strong. What he doesn’t understand is that true power comes from the people. And today, we’re going to prove it with thousands of peaceful protests: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i... #nokings

“We can’t do anything,” Caroline Dias Goncalves' relative said. “We’re scared. We’re not in jail with her, but we feel like it.” Her mom hasn’t stopped crying since she learned her daughter was being held and her dad is pacing constantly.

The latest move by the Trump administration to share personal information of Medicaid recipients with DHS should deeply concern everyone. Targeting families for their immigration status is a dangerous breach and we’re exploring all avenues to protect their information.

“Deploying soldiers to any American city isn’t just at odds with the principles of our democracy,” writes Michel R. Moore, the former chief of the L.A.P.D. “It’s tactically unsound."

WATCH: “I WAS AN INTERPRETER IN AFGHANISTAN FOR 3 YEARS.” ICE grabs a man whose name they don’t even know at his immigration hearing, shackles him, expedites his removal. Q: Why would anyone ever help our military again? — Trump is endangering and weakening our military.
