@chrisesq, but SPOOKY

it's his fault for likin' 'em loose

the crowd sizes are obviously the highlight here but the fact that *this* is the public statement of the NYPD does not bode well for the regime. or, put another way:

I do not regret to inform you that we are going to win

2500 peaceful protests pass without meaningful incident, and this is the authoritarian’s response. Maybe the weakest wannabe king in world history

I could kinda buy any other President pretending they’re shrugging off 7 million people hitting the streets to convey they hate him, but not the guy still beefing with Rosie O’Donnell.

My Soros check also came with a Switch 2 and a $1000000 Starbucks gift card

what is wrong with his fucking brain jfc

Just read that JD Vance got his dick stuck in a folding sleeper sofa right after posting that video of Trump as a king, and it sounds like his schlong probably can't be saved.

various 70 plus years old I know have expressed opinions like "I would strangle Miller with my bare hands" and "the old people should do the bombings because we have less to lose"

Pritzker: Throughout history we've learned that tyranny doesn't arrive with dramatic proclamations. Most times it comes quietly wrapped in the language of law and order, with fingers pointed at someone who doesn't look like you, promising safety while demanding that we sacrifice our neighbors.

Sign reading BIG LAW LITTLE BALLS, and then listing a bunch of lil ball'd firms: A&O Shearman Cadwalder, Wickersham Kirkland & Ellis Latham & Watkins Milbank Paul, Weiss Simpson Thatcher Skadden, Arpa Willkie Farr Then the sign ends with a Trump quote that should make these firms put their heads in the proverbial bag: "They gave me a lot of money considering they did nothing wrong"

👀 someone calling out big law firm complicity and cowardice

hey @michaelbennet.bsky.social and @hickenlooper.senate.gov - see how it's possible to actually show up and show us you have at least a little fight in you?

Sara Whitmer • • • 1h • 8 I'm sure many of you have heard by now that earlier this week, IU k*lled the print edition of its student paper, the IDS. The issue that was supposed to print this week contained criticism of the Whitten regime and IUs further slide into scist control, and they couldn't allow that to happen during Homecoming, when all the rich alumni are in town. Enter Purdue! The Purdue student paper, The Exponent, owns its own presses. Yesterday, in an act of tremendous solidarity with their biggest rival school, they printed the forbidden issue of the IDS. They then drove it to Bloomington overnight and stocked all of the IDS boxes on campus, just in time for Homecoming. Solidarity is what makes us stronger, and solidarity will be what ultimately allows us to triumph, if we can ever truly get it together. I hope everyone has a fun, safe day if they're going out today, and I hope we can think about what acts of solidarity we can begin taking to really make this movement MOVE - beyond a permitted expression of upset into more active resistance. 75 12 comments

Purdue to the rescue of IU student newspaper, whose institution was attempting censorship. Details in alt!

The wildest thing about the No Kings protests is that you'll see a sign that reads "DEATH TO ALL FASCISTS" next to an inflatable Garfield dancing

somewhere in portland, there's one person, or a small handful of people, who came up with the inflatable costume idea, and I feel like they deserve our immense respect for defining the obvious developing aesthetic of the contemporary battle against fascism

A young boy holds a sign that simply states in plain handwriting: Trump hit on my girlfriend

when i say that i yelped in shock at this kid’s sign

It’s so funny that for the past week republicans have all been like “the only people out there are gonna be Hamas.” Everyone in this crowd is signed up for Kohl’s rewards points.

Which #NoKings rally did you attend here in Colorado today, @bennet.senate.gov. Rep. Neguse was in Longmont. How about you and your junior, the Invisible Senator @hickenlooper.senate.gov?

Something maybe worth noting is that all the frog costumes and signs and good-natured memeing came about because a wide spectrum of Americans saw someone in direct, brave confrontation with ICE—getting pepperballed and standing their ground—and thought “that’s awesome. That person is a hero”

No Kings Denver speaker Joe Salazar (fmr Dem state rep) tells me they estimate 25-30k gathered in Denver today, similar to the No Kings protest earlier this year. This view is from photographer Cheney Orr for the New York Times. #copolitics

Not a lot of signs reading "incremental stopgap on health care subsidies."

Schumer and Jeffries got a big ole focus group today, let's see how they respond.

Crowd in Denver is huge and growing.

TRUMP DEFINITELY DOES NOT EAT HIS OWN SHIT

While I obviously find the large urban protests impressive, it's the smaller ones in towns with small populations that make me tear up. That takes a lot of courage and it's a good reminder that people object to this everywhere & geography doesn't define someone's humanity.

Take note of all these people turning out for protests in small towns in red states.

Remember them the next time you’re inclined to write an area off because “they voted for this.”

No Kings includes this asshole

Personally I love seeing corny, cringy bad protest signs. Means the amateurs are activated
