It’s so confusing….

For the History Books: For the First Time Ever, All 50 States Are Protesting the President—At the Same Time!

Flamingo Land protest outside parliament

Nobody in the UK supports this we do not want to spend our money to support Israel committing War Crimes.

Adapting Eleanor Roosevelt’s famous saying, the well-behaved rarely make history.

America This is your king: Ripe teats Soiled crevices And leaking pipe work. Loose unfolded conkers stroke his pale knees. A large amalgam of porridge & custard sloshes inside his chive scented underpants. He gurgles. America He is your Dad. Feel proud. Happy Father’s Day! 🇺🇸

The dragging😂😂😂

Best image of the day:

“Protesting is an act of love. It is born of a deeply held conviction that the world can be a better, kinder place. Saying "no" to injustice is the ultimate declaration of hope.” - Amy Goodman #RadioFreeAmerica

Honestly I still can’t stop laughing 😂😅🤣

“…barely any requests were made by residents living on any of the roads concerned, with almost all of the requests made by people who travel through rather than live in the area." www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Schrödinger's parade - the crowd was both sparse and dense.

We, the people, have spoken!

Amazing cities of Minneapolis and St Paul Minnesota!

Protesters formed a human banner at Ocean Beach during the "No Kings" protests in San Francisco. The protest is among thousands of nationwide demonstrations that took place today against Trump. 📸: Photo by @santiagomejia.bsky.social #NoKingsDay

Trump’s Putinesque vanity parade today is going to cost US taxpayers upwards of $45 million (£33m). This from a government that has already spent ca $170 billion more than the Biden administration in the same period last year. So much for DOGE huh

Let's all be the rain on this motherfucker's parade. #NoKings #NoKingsDay

It feels like a terrifying number of people in law enforcement are just dying to inflict violence on the American people. I hope the many men and women who take their vow to protect and serve seriously are brave enough to stand up to the corruption and ensure our human/civil rights are protected.

“The so-called housing crisis is not about all housing. It’s really only about the dire shortage of what are referred to as affordable homes.,” writes two local activists in the Cotswolds. www.prospectmagazine...

Donald Trump is threatening people who turn up to protest his June 14th birthday party military parade. Turn up, cripple the thing, end Donald Trump's evil regime.

Jacob Rees-Moggs reality series has been officially cancelled because no one watched it. HA-HA as the Simpsons says.

It's a face-palm moment every Wednesday with Badenoch.

This is what authoritarianism looks like. ICE agents ramming cars, tear gas near children, and fleeing scenes like fugitives. The people in that car were U.S. citizens. If this isn’t a wake-up call about unchecked power, what is? We have to stand up before it’s too late.

This.....🔥🎯🔥

I’m hearing rumors that thousands of people are calling the ICE tip line to report little green men and other aliens from outer space. That’s not why ICE set up this number, so you should absolutely NOT call that tip line to report those types of aliens. 👽 I repeat—do NOT call the below number! ☎️

Dock workers all across Europe are refusing to load ships sending arms to Israel. It is time for the UK to join them.

If you’re not angry, you’re not paying attention. 🎥: Time, 💬 Greta Thunberg

here's today's post: "the only thing on parade is his stupidity" — Mad King Donny is a childish dolt. thanks for reading, and please sign up for my daily newsletter to keep getting the good stuff —

Every flashbang could instead be a meal for a poor kid. Every hotel room for a National Guardsman deployed to fire at our neighbors could house a homeless vet. Every "less-than-lethal" bullet pulled from a journalist's eye could be already needed healthcare for anyone else. All of this is a choice.

There are 4 PILLARS OF DEMOCRACY: 1️⃣ The representative LEGISLATURE that makes the laws. 2️⃣ The EXECUTIVE that administers the laws. 3️⃣ The independent JUDICIARY that interprets the laws and protects rights. 4️⃣ The FREE PRESS that holds the others to account. 💥 All of them have collapsed in MAGAmerica.

The Mayor of LA has issued a curfew tonight — not because the citizens are out of control BUT BECAUSE THE PRESIDENT IS.

The Protests in Chicago are getting larger by the day!

Newsom slammed Trump’s ICE raids, saying agents targeted “dishwashers, gardeners, day laborers, and seamstresses” instead of violent criminals. “That’s weakness masquerading as strength,” he said. “They’re traumatizing our communities. California will keep fighting.” www.rawstory.com/newsom-trump...
