The Fox News website, has 3 negative stories re No Kings protests near the bottom. My guess is those who watch conservative media will barely hear of the protests at all & when they do it will be about the isolated incidents of violence as if that was the norm

My wife and I enjoyed going to the No Kings protest in Kalamazoo Michigan. Great turnout streets lined on both sides with hundreds if not 1000+ people around the Social Security administration building. A peaceful moving community event

I'll be attending this protest this Sat in my community and hope many of my πŸ”΅πŸŒ… friends around the USA can join us. https://www.mobilize.us/nokings/ #NonViolence365

It's time once again to thank all Never Trumpers. They were right then. They're right now. It takes something to stand firm when your side breaks bad. And to the Never-Again Trumpers who joined them: it takes something to admit you were wrong. I'll never forget it. Respect

Rut roh? It does seem like Apple's innovation has slowed down https://www.economist.com/business/2025/06/08/can-tim-cook-stop-apple-going-the-same-way-as-nokia?utm_source=flipboard&utm_content=other

I was surprised to see the small nonprofit where. My wife works replace their android tablets with the new basic iPad model. I love me my iPad, but not sure what led to that decision for them

If you are National Guard or Active Duty military and you are being ordered to violate the constitutional rights of US citizens then this is the number to the GI Rights Hotline. There is support. You don’t have to go through with it. 877-447-4487

The federal government is taking over the California National Guard and deploying 2,000 soldiers in Los Angeles β€” not because there is a shortage of law enforcement, but because they want a spectacle. Don't give them one. Never use violence. Speak out peacefully.
