Meanwhile, a one person deep line assembles to watch Trump's birthday parade in Washington DC.
Ben & Jerryโs Free Cone Day generates more enthusiasm than this pathetic show.

Do you know how badly you have to screw up as a Republican to get this kind of turnout in IDAHO?
#NOKINGS
When things get difficult over the next few years remember today.
The number of people who want democracy vastly outnumber the people who want a king.
Update: Over 7.2 million and counting across the country for the No Kings protest!!

I often feel a bit afraid due to my identity in this area but #nokings brought out so many
The day started with tragedy with political violence in MN and instead of being scared, neighbors SHOWED UP to stand together at No Kings Twin Cities. We packed the Capitol Mall all the way to the Cathedral. Estimate 80,000+ right now. So proud of our state. #nokings #indivisible

These are the scenes at start time, nothing like the crowd expected.
5 million pounds of military hardware about to hit DCโs streets. On the day 5 million Americans joined anti-Trump protests.
Happy birthday, Donald ๐

Our official estimate is 80,000 attendees. Rochester and Duluth got thousands each. Minnesota will not be cowed by the actions of cowards.

Todayโs rally, Saint Paul No Kings, is dedicated to our Senator Hoffman and our lost Speaker Emerita Hortman.
Fascists want you afraid. They want you to stay home.
But Minnesota will keep showing up until America no longer has a king.
A wooden sign depicts an upside down American flag, superimposed with yellow letters that read "This is the machine against whom we rage."
A person wearing a face mask holds up a cardboard sign that reads "Rebellions are built on hope" with the letter 'o' in hope replaced by the Star Wars Rebel logo.
Two people holding up their signs at a protest. Both signs say "(JD) Vance ate my cat"
Even more signs from #nokings in St. Paul today. Fear did not stop folks from coming out and practicing our constitutionally protected right to protest!

People in a crowd, with a cardboard sign held up in the middle that reads "Fascists can oligargle deez nuts". An American flag waves on the right hand side of the sign in the background.
One of my favorite signs from the St. Paul #noking protest

Hortman's home after a lawmaker who lived nearby was shot and found a "police vehicle in the driveway with emergency lights and what appeared to be a police officer at the door coming out of the house." He was actually the gunman.
Jesus.
The juxtaposition of these two posts back to back is just...
It should not be lost on anyone that Minnesota Rep Melissa Hortman, who was shot to death in her home last night by an assassin, was a gun safety advocate who worked tirelessly to protect her constituents from gun violence.

Every time the stronger brutalize the weak, itโs fundamentally the same playbook.
Our duty is to stand up to brutality.
Our moral obligation is to protect the vulnerable and hold the powerful accountable.

A person in a face mask, coat, and gloves holds up a large sign. The sign is styled off of The Tower from the Rider-Waite tarot deck and shows Trump & Musk falling from Trump Tower as it is on fire and struck by lightning, a crown falling from the tower as well.
My favorite sign in St. Paul today. The protester made this sign themselves and consented to a photo being taken.
