They're so freaked out by #NoKings.

You can smell the flopsweat coming off the administration in every interview today.

They know there's way more of us than there are of them.

By the time you get to the point where the Transportation Secretary is complaining about political protests, you know the administration is truly scared of the public backlash.

Trump controls the White House, the Supreme Court and Congress. The only thing he doesn't control is public opinion. That's why the Trump regime is so worried about this coming Saturday's "No Kings" protests – so worried that it's blatantly lying about "No Kings" and showing itself to be pro-king.

Today, Maine observes Indigenous Peoples' Day. We honor the lands and legacies of the Wabanaki Nations β€” Passamaquoddy, Penobscot, Maliseet, Mi’kmaq, Abenaki.

I look forward to passing legislation in the Senate to protect tribal sovereignty, which has been trampled for too long.

Happy Indigenous Peoples' Day.

Here's Deb Haaland in 2019, saying why, to her, changing the name of today's federal holiday from Columbus Day to Indigenous Peoples' Day isn't about erasing history at all. It's about correcting history.

Marshall, MO.

I head into rural Republican districts across the state and country and I organize the Democrats in those red spaces. I am a cheerleader for these Democrats. I remind them that they are not alone, and they are a force for change.

I will never stop.

People are spontaneously posting up near any laborers or street vendors they spot. Just saw a rapid responder guarding a man working on a building exterior. Many things are terrible today but lord, this stuff matters.

No Kings Day is almost here.

The Trump regime believes that if it can overwhelm us with atrocities and threats, we'll surrender our rights without fighting for them.

But the people won’t bow down. We will rise. Join us at a peaceful protest on Saturday: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i... #NoKings

I’m horrified to hear that two people were kidnapped by ICE in Evanston this morning.

There’s a protest at Home Depot shortly. We’ll be delivering water and supplies to protesters β€” I hope you’ll join us in standing with our community.

Portland's famous Unipiper was spotted at the Portland ICE protest where he played his bagpipes in front of Santa, Mr. Potato Head, Garfield and more -- all while surrounded by bubbles.

Do your job, Speaker Johnson.

Will You Stand Up for the Right of Peaceful Protest? A Saturday Prompt

Elected Republicans are getting desperate. Their lies are getting more ridiculous. They’re now trying to discourage protest by claiming No Kings will be a hate rally with terrorists. Millions of Americans have the chance to demonstrate how wrong they are.

We are seeing dozens of these videos every day. It's happening all over the ocuntry. I know many people are outraged but it's just continuing unabated.

This feeling of impotence is devastating. How does it end? With the country emptied of brown people and dissidents in jail?
