Study (N=815) finds domestic violence starts w/ coercive control over who a partner can see, what they wear, where they can go or questioning the partner's sanity. On average, physical abuse doesn't start until after marriage or moving into together. theconversation.com/he-stopped-m...

Just your average commander-in-chief pop-up shop.

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

Two lawmakers chose to serve their state. Today, they were met with violence. Minnesota Rep. Hortman and her husband were killed. Sen. Hoffman and his wife are in critical condition. We reject political violence in all forms—we stand for a democracy where peaceful disagreement is our strength.

Denver showed up today. #NoKings #WhichSideAreYouOn

When NO KINGS reigns over your parade. #SAD 🤣

@maddow.msnbc.com No Kings Rally in Hollister, CA, my mom’s 1st! Seniors, Vets, kids, dogs-all there peacefully demonstrating for Free! Scheduled from 12-2pm, but quite a few stuck around & coming home from church (3hrs later) there were still a few!

Well done #Seattle, well done #3E #NoKings

I love seeing the massive #NoKings turnouts in major cities, but what I love even more are the hundreds and hundreds of small, rural towns that had relatively bigger turnouts compared to their populations 💙🙏

💯

The people have spoken! 💙

Our able men and women in uniform swear an Oath to support the Constitution—they didn’t sign up to spend the weekend in a military parade to feed the insatiable narcissism of an incorrigible insurrectionist/dictator.

How embarrassing! 🍊💩🤡

St. Paul did not cancel. We showed up in BIG numbers.

"Trump’s birthday parade and his attack on LA are all part of the same agenda of fascist theatrics, divide and conquer politics, and the consolidation of power. Trump wants to look strong. What he doesn’t understand is that true power comes from the people."

EPIC response.

What we learned yesterday. The Times They Are a-Changin'

Proud Boy arrested for pushing protesters in Florida! Keep it up, law enforcement! Do the right thing!

Maine USMC Vietnam veteran Jeff Olson (1969-72) opposes domestic deployment of Marines: “it never was our mission and it shouldn’t be now.” #nokings Ellsworth #maine

So kinda feels like we’ve conclusively proved there’s more way more of us then there are of them and now we need to, with clear eyes, look at the platform, the messaging, and the candidate quality to turn marchers into voters. Gotta give people something, can’t just say other guy sucks.

Trump says he’s “open” to Vladimir Putin serving as a mediator in the Israel–Iran conflict: “He is ready. He called me about it. We had a long talk about it. We talked about this more than his situation. This is something I believe is going to get resolved,” Trump told ABC News. Is this a joke?

No Kings protest in Philadelphia, PA

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

RALEIGH. #NoKingsDay

Before the cops in LA started escalating things for no reason it was funny how my main takeaway was how much people were looking out for each other in really helpful ways. I’ve never seen so many people with carts giving away free water, sunscreen, snacks, and masks to total strangers.

Awesome!

Cop in Minnesota gave great advice, imagine that: One cop at the door is PRBABLY NOT legit. Any cops at the door, do NOT open. Call 911 and verify they are REAL COPS with a valid reason to be at your door. Survive.
