Over 2,000 people turned out to say #NoKings today in Petoskey Michigan!! Amazing turn out here and nationally! @kenmartin.bsky.social @michigandems.bsky.social @democrats.org

It was a packed sidewalk trying to make my way thru the crowd! Such joy and enthusiasm from nearly everyone in northern MI! Young and old alike! #Petoskey #Michigan #NoKings @maddow.msnbc.com @deanobeidallah.bsky.social @carlquintanilla.bsky.social @indivisible.org

🧵 about No Kings 2.0!! I don’t know about you but I loved the energy today!!! #NoKings #Petoskey #Michigan Let’s start with the staging area! Coolish morning with some showers didn’t deter anyone @ezralevin.bsky.social @leahgreenberg.bsky.social @maddow.msnbc.com @indivisible.org @demcast.com

We’re taking on the scam PACs. From the small business owner giving $5 to the young person donating for the first time, all donors deserve to know their hard-earned dollars are going to electing Democrats.

Huge new day reset for New Orleans with Helena Moreno Mayor, and JP Morrell and Matthew Willard Council At Large seats all winning outright tonight. So excited www.nola.com/news/politic...

Democrats are ready to fix this crisis, but Republicans would rather keep the government shut down. Their allegiance to Trump outweighs their duty to you—the American people.

Yes!!! More of THIS!! Hell even MTG agrees!!

911 emergency services are DOWN all across Mississippi and in parts of Louisiana and Alabama, apparently due to one single fiber line being cut. @nickjudin.bsky.social has the latest updates from Mississippi + alternative emergency numbers: www.mississippifreepress.org/911-emergenc...

Donald Trump just backed out of negotiations with Democrats to avert health insurance costs from skyrocketing. He caused this health care crisis and is now barreling us towards a government shutdown. Trump doesn't care whether you can make ends meet. He owns this shutdown.

Linear TV is dying and @CBS with the cancelation of @StephenAtHome and @ABCNetwork with cancelation of @jimmykimmel are killing it faster. Late night was one space unique space networks held. Until now… local stations protest at your own risk. 🤦🏼‍♂️

Earlier today, FCC Chair Brendan Carr said “we can do this the easy way or the hard way” about Disney/ABC “taking action on Kimmel.” Hours later, ABC pulled Kimmel off the air. It’s a blatant crackdown on free speech by an authoritarian administration. www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcn...

Disney and ABC need to feel serious consequences for their collaboration with Trump and MAGA in censoring Kimmel. Economic consequences. Same with the owners of CBS and other organizations that capitulate. The only thing they understand or care about are their own bottom lines.

My statement on Jimmy Kimmel and the Trump administration's crackdown on free speech.

Twenty-four years ago, our nation was attacked on September 11. Today, we honor the memory of all those who lost their lives and the bravery of our first responders.

Both of the co-founders of Turning Point USA died from things that were preventable, but which they mocked and urged this nation to ignore. Bill Montgomery was killed in 2020 by COVID and Charlie Kirk was killed in 2025 by gun violence.

We deployed our distributed organizing team of over 30,000 volunteers to help @iowademocrats.bsky.social and Catelin Drey's campaign get out the vote. This is the result. Make no mistake: When Democrats organize everywhere, we win everywhere.

Donald Trump says he is going to deploy the National Guard to Chicago. This is what weak men do to pretend they’re strong. Stay safe, stand with your community, and most importantly, know your rights:

I think what we ask of our side is to be less strident, period. For example, we don’t have to mob someone for using the term “homeless” if they’re sympathetic. We can offer another option & educate. Call folks in, not out. But by the same token, there’s no need to cancel someone for using “unhoused”

JUST IN: The right-wing news channel Newsmax has agreed to pay $67 million to Dominion Voting Systems over its coverage of the 2020 presidential election. A trial had been scheduled for October. n.pr/3UuKeyZ

Not a drag queen in sight 🤦🏼‍♂️

Please watch this. Then do something. 💸 this ad brought me to tears.

This is VITAL to our work, our community efforts. Micro-targeting got us into an ever smaller group of potential voters. We must be talking to everyone!! Let’s go! Proud of @kenmartin.bsky.social and his leadership at the @democrats.org

Went to an inspiring event this evening & ran into a few friends + other folks that I know @calliebarr.bsky.social @gretchengrad.bsky.social @stephenhandwerk.bsky.social @nomiindivisible.org Together we can move mountains if we are all working towards the same goal. Glad we are on the same team!

This is just sick. via @ktla.com: Footage obtained by KTLA shows a young man crying, saying his mother had just been taken, and children and protesters running from tear gas that was deployed when a crowd gathered at an immigration raid at a Ventura County farm this afternoon

🚨🚨The White House is pissed off about this ad so you know what to do, share it everywhere! ICE is disappearing people just because of the color of their skin! No Warrant! No Due Process! This is not who we are as Americans! #MAGAKidnappers want an all white America, fuck that‼️

Knowingly providing false information during an investigation undermines the integrity of our legal system. This plea makes clear that those who attempt to deceive investigators will be held accountable. www.mlive.com/politics/202...

“A U.S. citizen!” And now he’s missing. Adrian Martinez tried to defend a man ICE was harassing. Video shows six agents swarming him. He struggles but doesn’t lay hands on them. They take him to the ground & shove him into a CBP vehicle. Abuse of power. Keep recording. Don’t stop. (1 of 2)

Cutting specialized suicide prevention services for LGBTQ youth — during Pride Month, no less — is disgusting. To our LGBTQ youth: California has your back. We’ll keep investing in resources to help you lead safe and healthy lives.

FINALLY Democrats are putting out HARD-HITTING ads. WATCH AND SHARE: #MAGAKidnappers

I signed the final bills Melissa Hortman shepherded through the most narrowly divided legislature in the county. All of them bipartisan. We debated, we found common ground, and we compromised. That’s how democracy should function.

My family—and our entire @dfl.org community—was devastated to learn of the targeted, senseless murders of Speaker Emerita Melissa Hortman and her husband, Mark Hortman, along with the attack on Senator John Hoffman and Yvette Hoffman. This political violence must end.

Petoskey Michigan gets a shout out on CNN for over 1,500 people at the #NoKings rally yesterday… if you are counting that is way more than the 3.5% folks are talking about! HMU if you wanna get involved or @bocksam.bsky.social … change is coming!!

Columbus Pride also had many others carrying No Kings signs, both with spectators and participants. Here are a few random photos from the day! #NoKings

11 MILLION PEOPLE!! 💥💥💥 Are we nearing the magic 3.5%?? Never forget….WE hold the power. #nokings

Honestly I still can’t stop laughing 😂😅🤣

ICYMI - Governor Newsom shared this one… His public pushback on Trump has been objectively 🔥

Newsom: "Democracy is under assault before our eyes. This moment we have feared has arrived. He's taking a wrecking ball to our Founding Father's historic project."

NYT: “If you saw all this in any other country — soldiers sent to crush dissent, union leaders arrested, opposition politicians threatened — it would be clear that autocracy had arrived.” 😳🇺🇸 www.nytimes.com/2025/06/09/o...

JUNE 14 we are showing up EVERYWHERE! There are 1475 events taking place across the USA! We have a simple message: No thrones. No crowns. No KINGS! Find your event! www.nokings.org

🔥 @RepMcGovern: “THIS IS NOT POLICY. THIS IS THEFT… done under the cover of night.” #TrumpsTrillionsTransfer

🚨 WALMART RAISING PRICES DUE TO TARIFFS “We will do our best to keep our prices as low as possible but given the magnitude of the tariffs, even at the reduced levels announced this week, we aren’t able to absorb all the pressure given the reality of narrow retail margins,” Walmart CEO says.

NEWS: U.S. and China agree to a 90-day pause on new tariffs after shipping to U.S. ports plummeted. Tariffs on Chinese imports will be cut from 145% to 30%. Tariffs on U.S. imports will be cut from 125% to 10%. If tariffs should result in massive job growth and make the U.S. rich, why lower them?

Linda McMahon, Secretary of Education, sent Harvard a letter. They graded it. Bwahahaha.

Breaking News: The Trump administration is planning to send a group of migrants to Libya, in a sharp escalation of its deportation program.
