Hey, did you know @chronicle.com started a Compact Live Updates page today? www.chronicle.com/article/comp... That said, @cantb.bsky.social's summary below is pretty good. (Just missing USC, also out.)

This may be ignorant--but aren't there things judges can do about this to show their dissatisfaction with the DOJ?

“Under my leadership, we will restore fair, equal, and impartial justice under the constitutional rule of law.” - Donald J. Trump, second inaugural address

This is the sign that moved me most today. The simple message. The homemade lettering. She seemed tired, but resolute. Saw so many people from that generation today. People whose parents lived through WWII, who know what fascism looks like, and who may not be around to see us get out of this.

Happy Hate America Day! 🇺🇸

Putin keeps stringing Trump along while continuing to attack Ukraine. You’d think a US president wouldn’t want to keep being humiliated by Putin. Alas.

Forgot to add a frog pic! And bonus unicorn

Portland Police Police estimate so far is 40,000 to 50,000 at downtown Portland No Kings today @statesnewsroom.com @oregoncapitalchronicle.com

At the ICE facility a few miles south of downtown Portland and No Kings march, roughly 100 people gathered to protest. Portland No Kings organizers were clear they were not involved in any organizing of protests that had or would happen at the ICE @statesnewsroom.com @oregoncapitalchronicle.com

My family is from a rural Southern county that consistently goes 70% GOP and there are hundreds of people on the interstate overpass bridge through town telling MAGA to get bent

More waste, fraud, and abuse in the Trump administration www.nytimes.com/2025/10/18/u...

Some of the great signs at No Kings in Urbana, IL

They do this in Italy too

In the past 24 hours, two more colleges have rejceted the compact. That leaves Arizona, UT Austin & Vanderbilt of the original 9 who haven’t responded. Monday is the deadline. @ryanequinn.bsky.social reports www.insidehighered.com/news/faculty...

Trump can’t be appeased. Anyone who agrees to his deranged requests eventually learns that they will just be asked for more until they reach a breaking point and are then discarded. Only completely amoral sycophants like Steven Miller can hang on.

The teeny tiny No Kings things in very red areas are so huge Say like five or six people show up. None of them knew each other before. Suddenly they’re all friends. And maybe from that you get a group that does longer-term organizing that can punch *way* above its weight considering where it is

HEY!! Can you find YOUR event on this map?!?! If not, register and get your dot!! #MDIndivisible www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i...

HAPPENING NOW: A HUGE crowd has gathered in Charlotte, North Carolina for a “No Kings” rally against the fascist Trump regime

🔺NEW: We’re in graver danger than Cuban missile crisis, warns nuclear expert The world has never faced such peril, says the historian Serhii Plokhy, as he calls for an end to the ‘appeasement’ of Russia

This is even funnier when you know fish and chips has Iranian origins and was brought to England by Sephardi Jews 😂

British racists are mere weeks away from a scurvy outbreak because citrus fruits are "fancy foreign muck"

Same mistakes everywhere.

[Exit King.]

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Best sign thus far! 😂 #NoKings

“Public documents show the Department of Homeland Security has contracted to purchase a pair of top-of-the-line Gulfstream jets for the secretary and other top officials.” We are all paying for her private jets.

There sure are a lot of American flags at this Hate-America rally. (None appear to be on fire.)

Look at all those beautiful Stars and Stripes in the so called “Hate America” rally. #NoKings 🇺🇸

Today, veterans, public servants, and other patriots who love America will gather to show their love for democracy. You can find here a No Kings rally near you: www.nokings.org

If you attend a No Kings Day event, please record the number of people in attendance in our crowdsourced crowd-counting sheet. We prefer official estimates above ad-hoc counts — if you count yourself, pls be conservative (people are bad at estimating crowd sizes). docs.google.com/spreadsheets...

Early voting numbers in Georgia so far suggest that blue counties are significantly out-voting red counties — not even necessarily because of enthusiasm, but because there's more on the ballot in the Atlanta region. At stake? Dems' first statewide victories in a non-federal race in decades:
