Stunningly incompetent and insecure

Total idiot

Numbing people to obvious and dangerous risks is all he does. We knew that already.

BREAKING: A federal judge reversed National Institutes of Health's terminations of hundreds of critical research grants that were canceled because of their alleged connection to disfavored topics, including diversity, equity, inclusion, and gender identity. This is a major win for public health.

In charge of BS

These were versions of “we’ll have herd immunity by April.” Just numbing people to obvious and dangerous risks.

And massive insecurity

Shame applies

“No Kings Day”: A compilation

Minnesota Rep. Melissa Hortman was a friend who worked with Gabby to stop gun violence. We’re thinking of her children, who've now lost both their parents, and we’re praying for Sen. Hoffman and his wife, who are still fighting for their lives. Stay strong.

No kings, except maybe this one

Holy shit, New York! Here’s the full view. #NoKings #50501Movement

New in PN: The Trump/Musk fight is why we say "No Kings" "Musk's staggering wealth allowed him to shepherd a chosen candidate into office, install himself atop the government informally, and systematically destroy it from within. That’s not what America is supposed to be."

No Kings protest in Milton/Edgewood, WA. Over 100, which is an impressive turnout for our small, red town. And our coalition is growing! @meidastouch.com @maddow.msnbc.com @hcrichardson.bsky.social

One block over from the White House: the aspirational security line setup

Newsom’s social media team is killing it. (This isn’t an old picture. It’s from right now. I asked.) 😂😂😂😂

💯

Our able men and women in uniform swear an Oath to support the Constitution—they didn’t sign up to spend the weekend in a military parade to feed the insatiable narcissism of an incorrigible insurrectionist/dictator.

uh huh

Proud of Minnesotans

annoying

Back at the Capitol in Olympia, WA #NoKings

Way to go San Francisco!

Trump’s provocations have turned Angelenos into pedestrians

No Kings in Santa Monica was absolutely packed, that's just a sliver of it. Heading downtown now.

The #NoKings scene in Talkeetna, #Alaska: “Denali Forever!”

Despite warnings from the law enforcement not to attend today’s No Kings rally after this mornings shooting of Minnesota lawmakers with the killer on the lose, the No Kings Rally is happening at the Minnesota State Capitol in St. Paul.

Dallas turned out with at least 10,000 marching for #NoKingsDay

Massive #NoKings march in New York City!

Please post updates for locals blacked out by Apple tv

2,169 events across 20 countries. Millions of peope are standing up tomorrow to say with one voice: No Kings!

From a dear comrade who was kind enough to let me share their video. Veterans stage a sit-in on the US Capitol steps and say, “Military off our streets!” Hell yeah!

Hey, Trump! It’s gonna be partly sunny and 68° tomorrow in San Diego for the No Kings march. How’s the weather for your thing lookin?

"Right now, cancer patients are not receiving novel cancer treatments and are being cut off, um, when their only other option is hospice care."

I’ll tell you what. If you voted for Trump, and now it’s coming back to bite you, I don’t want to hear about how sad you are. I want to know what you’re gonna do about it. Start there.

🇨🇦 Morning Laugh 🇨🇦

Cowardly and insecure

Agree and thank you

"Sen. Bill Cassidy's deadly gamble: With one pivotal “aye” for RFK Jr., he sacrificed the nation’s vaccine shield to immunize his own political future." New, by me. open.substack.com/pub/robertma...

Excellent piece

It's been really demoralizng how much the press mindlessly repeats the lie that the National Guard was sent to quell violence. It was sent to start violence. People know this, so just say it.

Trump NIH director Bhattacharya took to Twitter to spin the Bethesda Declaration. We're here to point out his confusion and contradictions. 🫡 First, it is laughable for him to say he's removing ideology. Trump has inserted a rightwing ideology, stripping Harvard of science for ideological reasons.

Great to see such strong support for our courageous NIH colleagues, who are standing up for science!
