Why are folks mad at the working mom with kids on Medicaid and SNAP rather than companies like Walmart that refuse to pay her a living wage and provide health insurance?

Sandy Hook parent says tragedies are inherently political: “You may not believe in climate change, but insurance companies absolutely do.”

So it was the "No Kings" marches versus the "No Crowds" parade

What a legacy and what a tragedy 19thnews.org/2025/06/rep-...

One person was shot at the protest in Salt Lake City and is currently in critical condition. One individual is in custody. Please keep the victim in your prayers.

“We owe it to ourselves to keep imagining, keep pushing, keep making sure that we have No Kings, in name or just in deed, ever again.”

If Hegseth gets shitcanned for this wet fart of a parade instead of his general incompetence, I’ll still take it

Across the country, our coalition members are holding candlelight vigils to honor the victims and their families. We’ll end the night with drinks, but right now, prayers come first. If you want to join us, put a candle out on your front porch.

We’re honored to report that over 11 million showed up for today’s No Kings protest, and totals are still coming in. Just… wow. WOW 😮! There’s nothing more to say.

Philly showin' up today

“If ICE is going to wear a mask in their uniform, then I can.”

Chicago ✊

The scale of the rally in Portland is MASSIVE. Simultaneously crossing the Morrison and Hawthorne Bridges in one long parade of democracy. Tens of thousands of people. #NoKings

BREAKING: Police are responding to a shooting during the "No Kings" protest in downtown Salt Lake City. One person is in custody.

Good pupper

I really really needed to see that people hadn't given up and accepted this shit as inevitable, or (even worse) embraced it. And today showed us that beautifully. No one wanted in on his tank show, but people WERE HUNGRY to tell him to go fuck himself.

This time-lapse video of protesters marching down Broadway in Oakland for No Kings Day gives an idea of how many people turned out today @sfchronicle.com

One Minnesota.

Can anyone verify these numbers? Because I’m hearing 200k in NYC, 100k in Philly and San Diego so 1m seems high. We do have reports though of ~8.6m nationwide though !!

Assassin was Trump voter

Literally the Russian flag in the post. Two of them

at some point it is going to be America getting blown the fuck out by sophisticated, multi-year intel-driven strikes, because we put the dumbest and most venal people in the world in charge of counterintelligence

BORDER PATROL: “Are you an 🇺🇸 citizen?” 🔥 NATIVE AMERICAN WOMAN: “FIRST ONES. We didn’t cross the border, the border crossed us… what are you? You’re not first born. You’re not from this f*ckin’ land. Punk-as* b*tches.”

Something just hit me. Trump’s tactics might have just awakened a sleeping giant. All day, I’ve been seeing clips of children of immigrants newly activated: speaking up and pushing back harder than their parents ever could. Future voters.

Couple things I learned today: - Seniors are extremely fired up about this - "Fuck ICE" is a normie position now - People are MASSIVELY pissed off about Sen. Padilla being wrestled to the ground in LA - We all we got, we all we need

Remarkable. MSNC: "I want to reiterate this has been 100% peaceful." Seconds later, LA County sheriffs start firing on the crowd. Yet again, "law enforcement" deliberately escalated.

Good doggie

i'm surprised by how low energy and farcical that whole military parade situation was. I was expecting Moscow 1945 and we got Spirit Halloween instead.

Bet DC hasn’t had more people praying for rain than today since the Brits burned the Capitol

Boston showed up for No Kings Day!

🤦🏼‍♀️

I thought Trump said there would be no more conflicts when he was president since he blamed every conflict everywhere in the world for the last 4 years on Biden & said that none of them would’ve happened if he was president. I thought he was going full Art of the Deal with Iran?

Donald Trump told us that there would be no wars if he was President. Not even six months in and Israel just struck Tehran.

Explosive moment during tonight's NYC mayoral debate: Cuomo: "He’s never dealt with the city council, he’s never dealt with the Congress..." Mamdani: "I’ve never had to resign in disgrace...I have never hounded the thirteen women who credibly accused me of sexual harassment."

More Americans voted for Senator Alex Padilla than for 48 of the 53 red state GOP U.S. Senators combined.

AOC: “They’re making people undocumented by removing LEGAL status, then having the audacity to call them illegal… correct?” @govpritzker.illinois.gov: “Taking their legal right to be here away.” @aoc.bsky.social: “The Republican majority is anti-LEGAL immigration, I want to make that very clear.”

I think all they’ve really managed to do this week is encourage more people to turn out for the No Kings protests. Being underwater on every issue before July is pretty impressive.

Just since I left town on Friday: -Stephen Miller floats suspending habeas corpus -ICE arrests a mayor under dubious pretext -DHS threatens to arrest members of Congress -Qatar gives Trump a $400 million plane he *gets to keep* -Trump's emissary is negotiating with Russia using Putin's interpreters

The assault on the Constitution is happening *right now*. We cannot wait to defend it.

I hope it is very clear what antisemitism looks like, and I'll tell you what, it's not an op-ed condemning genocide. Consider that while Rumeysa Öztürk spent 6 weeks in prison for her constitutionally protected speech, the president's friend wouldn't dream of worrying about such a thing.

They want you to believe this 80 year old woman body slammed a chud ICE officer.

It's shit like this why I still keep my Xitter account.

Trump just made it up to 98% more expensive to have a baby. Trump's baby tax is here.
