Wild that this is the level of restriction courts must put on thugs like CBP (this is… not exactly a lot of restriction), and that they’re so offended someone would limit their violence they refuse to follow it.

They’re human rights, not a “purity test”.

Pedro Pascal was spotted at the LA No Kings protest with the best sign there.

Over and over, right wing Americans get bonus representation. Lose in 2008 - bonus coverage of Tea Party. Win in 2016 - outsize coverage of Trump voters in diners. Dems lose 2024 and protests 28x size of tea party? Nothing

Damn, we could have filled up that diner with inflatable frogs a thousand times over, then we would have mattered to the media.

my woke take is that entirely too many people feel entitled to the benefits of a social contract while not feeling bound by the responsibilities of said contract

No Kings couldn't have gone better - massive turnout, no violence, and it drove Trump so crazy his response was "Kings are good and I poop on everyone." Best of all was the effect on the millions of participants and everyone watching. My latest at Public Notice: www.publicnotice.co/p/no-kings-p...

This is just straight-up treason by rubio, he's wrecking our ability to fight organized crime in order to help bukele cover up his apparently cozy relationship with MS-13 leadership and possible theft of us foreign aid, all so trump et al can get photos of us sending hairdressers to torture prison

I do enjoy that he knows most of us despise him. He’s seen at least some of the signs we made saying it. And we said it creatively.

what trump brought to the republican party, more than maybe any other thing, was contempt for virtue, and he’s demanded that republicans abandon any virtue they might have once had.

so I gather this is a lot of people's first middle east cease fire.

Beautifully put.

This lady deserves the presidential medal of freedom once the place is back under adult control and im not kidding

It's incredibly telling that student newsrooms have shown more bravery in the past few years than many national outlets

Anyone have an update on what flag is flying at Casa Alito?

I scrolled through the @1stforall.bsky.social's gallery of print front pages for local coverage of "No Kings" protests. Here are some of the standout papers, starting with the Daily Sentinel of Grand Junction, Colorado:

The endless top headlines and photos of people in tricorn hats with tea bags dangling from them (!!!) remain seared into my brain. But now I’ll get to remember the frog brigade, the cheers and smiles, more signs than I’ve ever seen, and most of all the MASSIVE number of people who want good.

Oh it’s not appropriate for your program to air the president wearing a crown and shitting on American citizens? You’ll talk about it in euphemisms? Maybe call it the “crown video” and ignore the shitting part? Because that’s appropriate? Tell me, was it appropriate for the president to do it?

No notes

I have cried over these tonight To EVERYONE Standing in Solidarity with the democratic protests in so many countries And In COSTUMES 🐸🐓🦒 ALL Kinds of COSTUMES That's the part that started me crying 😭 Thank You Each & Everyone You give me Hope

if kamala was president we wouldn't even know there was a diarrhea plane

We live in such embarrassing times.

CHIEF JUSTICE ROBERTS: I am an originalist, I believe the founders wanted to see the president with a sign declaring himself king while flinging shit at citizens, and they intended no restrictions on said kingly shit-flinging.

if the president does something so awful it would be indecent to describe and ask about then you very obviously need to describe and ask about it, thats the entire job

the media has made a huge deal about Neutrality and Not Editorializing and it all falls apart when you realize they are too afraid to publish a factual description of the video Trump posted

Ladies and gentleman, the President of the United States of America.

It’s praxis to now call him Donald J. Dump.

No author would dare write a president of the United States so stupid.

These big, popular, normie protests also remind us who our coalition is made up of. These are the people we must work with, and we can’t abandon.

I think this is right, but I’d also add that media elites can’t comprehend that people care about real stuff happening, rather than just red team vs. blue team. These protests aren’t related to a campaign, so the media’s entire (hollowed out) set of tools for understanding politics are useless.

I don't think it's possible to come up with a better metaphor for Trump's presidency than him cheerfully flying a plane that dumps literal shit on America

Perhaps the gravity of the office may yet change the man.

I remember when my toddler reached the poopoo/peepee stage of humor. It was a really fun part of being a parent. Notably, we did not give him the nuclear codes.

Well I was not expecting BILL NIGHY to be spitting facts today! observer.co.uk/culture/inte...

My favorite part of these protests is seeing, tangibly, that critical fact we must remember: THERE ARE MORE OF US THAN THERE ARE OF THEM!

Hilary Clinton said that some of Trump’s supporters are racist or misogynist 10 years ago, and we’re still hearing how Dems need to apologize and reach out to them.

Some folks were worried that they'd sic thugs on the protestors or declare martial law. Instead they posted AI videos and complained. These people have no juice. Their supporters are cowards. They are are all bark and no bite. They collapse when we push back. Remember that.

After adding new data to our spreadsheet, our central estimate of turnout for the No Kings Day protests yesterday has risen to 5.5 million, with an upper bound of 8.7 www.gelliottmorris.com/p/second-no-...

This is a huge reason for these protests! And also, people with power know a lot of us aren’t crazy!

Betraying informants, turning them over to be tortured, so we could send people to also be tortured. Fuck these vile monsters.

quit your job 👋

One of my fave photos from today. Loved that the folks leading the chants were regularly including trans rights. WHEN TRANS RIGHTS ARE UNDER ATTACK, WHAT DO WE DO? STAND UP FIGHT BACK!

My sign for No Kings in Portland. Nazis are bad! #NoKings

every smug internet communist tweet about showing up to a No Kings protest with an abolish ICE shirt to scare the libs is getting completely mogged by the real-life winemoms showing up with slogans like "ICE will melt in hell"

When did cops decide they need to pin everyone to the ground? It’s violent and dangerous, and obviously unnecessary. That’s beside the fact this is clearly free and protected speech.

This is Idaho 💙

Portland turned out for No Kings! We REALLY hate ICE and the goons in our city and Donald Fucking Trump. My friend went up into a parking garage and captured this video. #NoKings

NYC #nokings Jubilant atmosphere in Times Square - and so many good signs
