I think it's really good that we're taking back the symbols of American democracy from those traitors, finally. This was me today, and if you'd have told me a year ago that I'd be wearing the most obnoxiously American inflatable costume imaginable at a protest, I don't think I'd have believed it.

Telling moment: I was walking back from the rally, but a couple miles from it, carrying nothing but my gigantic American flag. An eight year old on his bike sees me with it and yells "No Kings!!" with absolute conviction. My friends, they have lost the flag.

The thing about No Kings the GOP doesn't seem to get isn't that we hate you as much as it is that we recognize you for what you are. You're a threat. You're a threat to our lives, our livelihoods, our families, our friends. We WILL drive you out of power. You haven't given us any other choice.

As seen at No Kings Atlanta:

He said the Dems have no message. Really? Our message includes Medicare Medicaid Snap Science Funding for science research Climate change Voting rights Taxation of the rich Ending tariff craziness Support for Ukraine Infrastructure projects Funding education Reproductive rights .just for starters

“.. I support democracy and our country,” one of them told me. “It’s not about ideology.” #NoKings 👑 @jeremyschulman.bsky.social www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Wow! Love your creativity Ocean Beach (San Francisco)!

If nothing else it’s an SOS sign. It’s us standing on the beach spelling out HELP in the sand for any passing aircraft to see.

not much to argue about on this one, I guess

This is BEAUTIFUL.

Well, you can finally cross “I’ve seen a handcuffed, inflatable penis” off your bucket list

An astonishingly large crowd! Chicago

I joined the "human banner" at San Francisco's Ocean Beach. This flag was at the center. It was a gorgeous day with enormous waves. #nokings

If your newspaper doesn't have no kings as the top us story today, throw it in the trash and don't look back

Texans. Remember that the next time you say we deserve this administration.

No Kings (Tyrants) London UK.

This is what democracy looks like. #NoKings

What a disappointment he turned out to be ... no mercy, we'll vote him out!

When the Birmingham, Alabama, march is packed, you know something is up in America!

Sanders: Today, October 18th 2025, there are more people out on the streets in more communities all over our country than we have ever seen in American history

Chicago - no kings

MSNBC captured the crowd from the Boston "No Kings" rally:

Maybe Prince Andrew could share some info. At this point he really has nothing to lose.

None of my pictures of the DC #NoKings rally really did justice to the scope of the event. As a consolation prize, please enjoy this picture of me flipping off a hideous banner at the Department of Labor 🤓

This doesn’t even include the ones who had pending case but he had their charges dropped.

BlueSky just verified the White House account. I responded by doing the only appropriate thing:

Our federal tax dollars are being used to fund a network of government social media accounts that pump out disinformation 24/7. Even during a government shutdown. It’s definitely not essential work.

🚨 Driving drunk with your kids in the car and thinking that is okay because you are an ICE agent answers all the unasked questions.

Cops led us into the street as the new “protest zone” and then beat us repeatedly. Got hit in the face with a baton. Leaving to pick up my friends who were arrested. Stay safe out there.

Hey @nytimes.com, did you change your headline, and change "Islamophobic attacks" on Mamdani to just "attacks," because Elise Stefanik and the GOP bullied you into it? Really? Why are they no longer Islamophobic attacks, as your headline originally and correctly stated?

Dear John Bolton, If you had never agreed to work for his Nazi regime you wouldn’t be in this situation. #NoSympathy
