Earlier today, an estimated 14,000 people crowded the streets of Richmond for No Kings II to peacefully protest the authoritarianism of Donald Trump.

Here's a longer clip of the marching band

This is very important. There are so many people out there who oppose what this administration is doing. Who canceled their Disney subscriptions or called their members or knocked doors or showed up today. Have faith in that and keep showing up where and how you can.

This is what democracy looks like. #NoKings

I was walking with the band at the 1:34 mark...so much fun 🎉🇺🇸 #RVA #NoKings

it is far better to be in a country with a mass visible protest movement than one without it

If nothing else, today shows that the country is full of earnest liberals and you can't just act like we don't exist.

FUCK TRUMP. #RVA #NoKings

How can George Soros afford this payroll today?

Today’s No Kings protests have shown two things: 1) Trump and MAGA Republicans inhabit a bubble that is nothing like real life in America. Fully disconnected. 2) They see themselves as powerful and unstoppable. They are neither.

#NoKings #rva Richmond, Va

Y'all have no idea how many old women told me about their bottles of champagne chilling in the fridge 😂

Great afternoon at #RVA #NoKings!!!

it is my pleasure to report they are indeed mad as fuck on the other site over being blocked and ignored. keep up the excellent work everyone

I haven't had the capacity to keep up with moderation lists for a bit, but this one is really obvious, so I'm stealing some energy from Future Me: a list for the extremely obvious wave of inauthentic accounts following today's newly-created US gov accounts bsky.app/profile/did:...

Can confirm.

I've just been watching and laughing. Man, what an absolute joy.

OMG THE GREATEST TO EVER DO IT #SHOHEI

Shohei Ohtani has Babe Ruth lookin like some random doughboy tonight. Got Barry Bonds lookin like JD Drew.

Unreal. My word.

Omg Shohei 🤯

GRAND SLAM MY GOODNESS

DUMPERRRRRR

They are arriving because of the mass mobilizations and they have figured out that Twitter isn't going to be the main space to monitor activity.

The reason they're coming after this place is because they can't control the people on it and it drives them nuts.

EPSTEIN FILES ARE REALLY BAD

Please block this embarrassment right now.

He's actually allowed to pardon anyone he wants. Those are ACTUALLY within his power. Too bad Democratic Presidents didn't use their commutation powers to free masses of people.

what if ... we just never reopened the government

BLOCK THEM ALL

there’s quite literally no purpose in continuing to pay taxes if they’re going to weaponize them against a majority of people paying them like this

I'm going to grab a bunch of these at Michael's/Lowes and pass them out at #RVA #NoKings tomorrow. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

8 year olds, at best.

this is a man

MAXIMUS 🥹

I am sure these guys will get right on it

Gonna throw a party on election day for the sole reason of never having to hear Winsome Earl Sears say "I AM SPEAKING. I AM SPEAKINGGGGGG" ever again.

Erasing what today is about, what a way to honor Billy Bean’s legacy. Truly evil shit. DR must not want to risk pissing off the fascist fuckers dragging this country into the toilet, god forbid his evil private equity empire suffer some losses. Fuck these people man. bsky.app/profile/mlbb...

the extent to which media elites treat liberal americans as if they do not count in the body politic is a real problem

the president using the office to punish americans that didnt vote for him should really be one of the biggest scandals in americas history

absolutely unthinkable to help pass a budget as long as he feels comfortable saying this

Every time a Democrat gets caught on tape saying like “Some Trump voters are racist” we have a national scandal and JD Vance demands an entirely new kind of apology and meanwhile every Republican group chat is like “Good morning fellow SS members. Who’s ready to respect Hitler today?”

I cannot believe people were losing their jobs for being mildly critical of Charlie Kirk and the president of the united states just went on tv and said "skill issue loser, RIP but I'm different"

WOWWWWWWW BASEBALL 😂

This is phenomenal 👏👏

Every democrat should be talking like this. Not the feckless mueller time version of this that we’ve had for years, but actual promises of actual consequences As long as it goes unpunished we’ll never be free of this

Once again, lots of appreciation to the sports posting people who have made this place an acceptable location for both baseball and college football as opposed to posting about sports and being asked why you didn’t bring up every single one of the worlds atrocities in your post instead

For real 😫
