Hero’s of the day - In a small town of Beckley, WV, Kendra Sullivan staged a one-woman No Kings protest. She was confronted, had the police called on her, but stood her ground. She was physically threatened. Police came more than once and protected her right to protest. This is how we do it.

Michiganders turned out EVERYWHERE to say loud and proud - there are No Kings in our country 🇺🇸

Not now. Not ever.

Thank you to the organizers of today's wildly successful (and peaceful) "No Kings" rallies. You did an amazing job. And thanks to all the millions of people who showed up to give us faith. And a special shout out to the White House regime and the Speaker of the House for all the free publicity!

Sanders: Today, October 18th 2025, there are more people out on the streets in more communities all over our country than we have ever seen in American history

This really is a GREAT sign!

DC J6: 1.500 arrests

Westerville OH showed up. Minors, dinos, Sam the eagle, raccoons, cats, and tons of vocal supporters. 🚫👑 50501 Indivisible. 3x as many folks as the last gathering. 💯

Hark, Speaker Mike Johnson! Looking at all the many, many pics of the enormous, joyous “No Kings” rallies throughout the United States today, I am struck by what lovely weather your Lord and Savior provided. Apparently, God is a fan of, as you claimed, "America-hating Antifa terrorists." Glory!

“.. I support democracy and our country,” one of them told me. “It’s not about ideology.”

Endless lines of protestors in Downtown Los Angeles

Coast Guard bought Kristi Noem two private jets (I guess if one breaks down). Cost: $172 million. Is that what you call draining the swamp?

NYPD announces that zero arrests were made at the massive No Kings protests today after Republicans spent days claiming the protestors are violent terrorists.

Wow. Sidney Reid, the DC woman just found not guilty of assaulting an FBI agent, issues a withering and gutsy statement on Trump through her attorneys.

"I feel sorry for the prosecutors really, who must be burdened by Trump's irrational and unfounded hatred for his fellow man."

It's a must-read:

Unfortunately, law enforcement has a long history of lying and misleading or giving impossible orders—like to disperse while simultaneously blocking all exits ("kennelling"), or telling you to do something (like get in the street) and then arresting you for it. Please video as much as possible.

Cuomo had better learn how to say “Mayor Mamdani” correctly, because he got smoked last night.🔥

Pritzker: "Stephen Miller is clearly ordering people to break the law. So he should know that yeah, it may be three years from now that he is held accountable, but I think it's important for them to know that whatever they do now, it's not like we're going to forget."

JUST IN: Judge Mehta threatens contempt and bar sanctions for attorney Carolyn Stewart — who has repped numerous Jan. 6 defendants and pardon recipients — over filing a motion with “fabricated” citations to local rules and refusing to correct it.

Clearly compromised/under the influence, driving WITH HIS KIDS, but still wants to throw his weight around and racially profile the officers protecting him/them. Drunk...with power.
