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?

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.

The Trump/Musk fight is why we say "No Kings"
Today's protests are about reestablishing a government of laws, not unaccountable oligarchs.

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.

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 !!

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.

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?

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.

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.
