Palm Springs June 14, 2025 #NoKingsProtest❌👑

Happy Father's Day from Ukraine 🇺🇦

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.

This time-lapse video of protesters marching down Broadway in Oakland for No Kings Day gives an idea of how many people turned out today @sfchronicle.com

These injuries were not inflicted by ICE or federalized guardsmen or imaginary agitators. They were inflicted by LAPD and LASD, under the direction of a supposedly democratic mayor, against people who came out to protest peacefully against fascism and racist kidnappings of our neighbors.

MSNBC reporter in gas mask in Los Angeles: I think it was Sheriffs deploying CS gas, tear gas, pepper spray, and flash bang grenades in large numbers. Mounted units pushing against protesters.., every single gathering I saw today was 100% peaceful

Video of when shots first fired. #Utah #NoKings #Shooting

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

Impossible not to cry when you see your dad cry it's a thing I don't know it just is and by extension seeing his son cry because his dad cried and we've all been in that moment so now it's like a game of telephone but with crying

"No protests were allowed in DC during the military parade the president ordered to honor himself on his birthday... That would’ve been a serious contender in a Most Unamerican Sentence contest ten years ago. Or 50. Or 80. Don’t let anyone tell you the US was always like this."

These are camps. They're being held indefinitely because of who they are. The conditions are horrible. There's no way out. These are camps

thousands!

Deporting people for their political writing. Like, explicitly:

we have the numbers, they don’t. unfortunately what they do have is people willing to do targeted assassinations to swing control of state legislatures, a right wing media ecosystem willing to immediately lie that he was a leftist, and control of the security services. the question is, what’s next?

Live and peaceful in Pasadena CA

HAPPENING NOW: A sea of protesters have gathered in Ann Arbor, Michigan for a “No Kings Day” rally against Donald Trump (Video: WXYZ-TV)

Even if you only care about citizens and not people living here since they were teenagers, this does incredible harm to two American citizens and helps no one at all. Except Miller and other ghouls who get off on violence to dark skinned people. www.military.com/daily-news/2...

Reminder that most "red" states have a sizable population who're gerrymandered out of power. Support those who resist!

At the Texas Capitol maybe 10 minutes now. There is a dinosaur with a Trump/Epstein sign. Not sure whether that merits National Guard intervention or not. Other than that, observing possible need for troops to deliver cold water or little handheld fans

Authoritarians depend on fear. Democracy depends on each other.

Turns out a big military parade that isn’t celebrating bringing the troops home has a certain Christmas in July vibe.

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.

Raskin: And the moment that somebody in public office begins to act like the master of the people. That is the moment to evict, eject, reject, impeach, try, convict, and start all over again .

He said this yesterday. A Minnesota democratic lawmaker was assassinated today by some some psycho cosplaying a cop.

This. It literally has the word "battle" in the title.

My hometown showing up in Florida, brought a tear to my eye. And we are a quiet ass town, mostly a place where old folks go to retire.

This is insane

At some point we gotta start arrest ICE agents for kidnapping

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

Worth noting: There are two prominent Jewish candidates in the NYC mayoral election, Brad Lander and Scott Stringer. Neither of them are the ones leaning hard into "Mamdani is a scary Muslim dude." In fact, one of them went so far as to endorse Mamdani as #2.
