the story today is of a profoundly low energy military parade being met with millions of americans in nationwide protests denouncing the dictatorial pretensions of the president

MagFest in which the crowd gathers to watch 4 violinists play Legend of Zelda music vs Trump's Birthday Party

Boelter’s roommate confirmed that he was under financial strain and that his security company wasn’t a going concern yet. Also that he’s a huge Trumper and anti-abortion fanatic:

QUEER JOY IS RESISTANCE NO KINGS, MOTHERFUCKERS

Seniors in Salt Lake City heading out for a #nokingsprotest in front of their assisted living facility.

The fairytale romance continues …

Couple things I learned today: - Seniors are extremely fired up about this - "Fuck ICE" is a normie position now - People are MASSIVELY pissed off about Sen. Padilla being wrestled to the ground in LA - We all we got, we all we need

Organizers estimate over 5 million people participated in today's #NoKings protests.

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

I missed that Jeff Bezos sold the Post to Donald Trump directly.

we already lost our industrial base to china, now they're beating us at our own culture

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

LAPD and LA Sheriffs tried to prevent two large protests from joining together in downtown and both departments ended up hitting EACH OTHER with impact munitions from across the same interesection.

Trump asked for the moon for the parade and they gave him Hoboken.

lol.

This is the most costly pitiful thing I’ve ever seen.

Trump demands Alt Things Considered

#Boise #Idaho showing up for #NoKings

What happened in Minnesota is a direct consequence of the violent way that Trump talks about his political opponents.

I couldn't remember Marc Andreessen's name but luckily google still works sometimes

Talked to so many people who were at the first protests of their lives today. Ex-Republicans, introverts, 90-year-olds and 3-year-olds. This was at an intersection in a 60,000 person town. Haven’t felt hope like this in my life.

From the Seattle Times website: 'The protest did get a surprise guest: Former Gov. Jay Inslee spoke to the crowd, urging people to stand up “for democracy.” Inslee called the unusual demonstration inspiring, saying “the only king” he recognizes is “Neptune, king of the sea.”' 🧜‍♂️

Hell yes, Olympia #nokings!

Lots of new details about the suspect in today’s Minnesota shooting from @wired.com — Suspect runs an armed security service with his wife, has a history of evangelical religion and missionary work, including in Gaza and the West Bank: www.wired.com/story/shooti...

Jamie Raskin: My friends, fascism will not be the end of American democracy, American democracy will be the end of fascism!

Good morning, I am at the ghost town that is the Army Birthday Celebration, excited to experience what promises to be an incredibly stupid day The Army Strength Competition is about to begin Let's do this 🧵

I wrote quite a lot about how the left’s hateful rhetoric fueled the killings of the healthcare CEO and Israeli embassy staffers. I’m going to either ignore this weekend’s assassinations in Minnesota or maybe write something both siding them.

Back at the Capitol in Olympia, WA #NoKings

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

Stay classy, San Diego. #NoKings

Woot!
