Due to a shelter-in-place order and ongoing safety concerns following a shooting that targeted two elected officials, the No Kings protest in Northeast Minneapolis has been canceled. Our thoughts are with the victims, their families, and the communities impacted by this horrifying violence.

Clayton Kershaw will get no blowback from his club, the league, or most of the media for defacing his cap and undermining the team's official pro-LGBTQ+ messaging. But ask yourself what would happen if a player wrote a message of protest next to the American flag-logos on Fourth of July caps.

Trump said protesters would be met with very big force. Apparently, that includes cloud-to-ground lightning.

PSA: We will be focusing on the “No Kings” rallies rather than his military charade, and we encourage other outlets to do the same. (‘Many people are saying’ they will have a much bigger turnout)

RFK Jr now going after ALL vaccines. He argues that the Covid vaccine (which he’s restricted) was the only one that had proper safety testing. He says they “dysregulate the immune system”. Get your boosters. He’s setting the stage for “natural immunity” where only “the strong survive” Eugenics.

This should be getting more coverage!! 😲 “Far-right social-media [is] posting about the ‘No Kings’ rallies and encouraging their people to respond…with violence. [They are also] sharing identifying info about the organizers, including names, images and where they work.” www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

Re: Florida #NoKingsDay Brick throwing is considered deadly force and will result in your summary execution by law enforcement. Be aware. Be peaceful. Be alive next week.

If you're heading to a protest tomorrow, it's important to know your rights. Consult this information from the ACLU. Be peaceful. Be safe. Be careful. Be strong.

Protests are up enormously, but reporting of those protests—other than running clips of burning Waymos—is practically nonexistent.

FWIW, I think this part is key.👇 Also why I need both MLB and MiLB baseballs this year! 🙏⚾️🙏⚾️🙏 “Manfred acknowledged… additional costs on ball imports because of the tariffs. ‘Costa Rica’s not much of a tariff problem…. The minor league baseball’s made in China, that’s more of an issue.’”

Senator Padilla was driven violently to his knees–as if made to kneel before the authority of the executive–because the administration called his questions “disrespectful”. This should offend not just the other 99 Senators. It should offend the conscience of this country.

IMPORTANT: Before the fascist attack on Senator Alex Padilla, Kristi Noem said that her gestapo in California were staying to "liberate the city socialist and the burdensome leadership that this governor and that this mayor have placed on this country." Don't let that slide by.

If that’s what they do to a United States Senator with a question, imagine what they can do to any American that dares to speak up. We will hold this administration accountable.

Republicans who do not condemn this are unfit to serve in any capacity. They are servile, abetting an evil regime.

Today they have crossed a deep red line. We, the people, must hold the president and his appointees accountable for this outrageous abuse against American liberty.

This is not hard. Every Republican member of Congress should join Democrats in condemning this administration’s vicious arrest of Sen Padilla. “A Republic if you can keep it” is now.
