Our confirmed count stands at 8.1 million participants worldwide for yesterday’s No Kings protest. Thank you to everyone who helped verify the numbers through our submission website. While some MAGAs attempted to submit false or misleading data (such as reporting “one person” for major cities)

Looks like to need to stop this from happening in the future. Break up these monopolies in media. Write laws to prevent this happening in the future. Hold lies accountable with huge fines . One billion for every damn lie.

NBC just gutted the very teams that gave marginalized voices a seat at the table—then called it “restructuring.”

The cuts:

📌NBC BLK (Black community coverage)

📌NBC Latino (Latino community coverage)

📌NBC Asian America (Asian American community coverage)

📌NBC Out (LGBTQ+ community coverage)

TODAY! Trump has once again tweeted a video of a magazine cover mocked-up to show him being elected president again & again into the distant future.

THIS was his response to NO KINGS? Is he TRYING to make our point for us? Not only does he think he's KING, he's a mad king.

KARL: “Why haven’t you sworn in Adelita Grijalva?”

SPEAKER JOHNSON: “I’m following the Pelosi precedent with Letlow.”

KARL: “But that was the date Letlow requested.”

SPEAKER JOHNSON: 🤷🏼

Per BBC VERIFY - Elon’s Grok just lied and said the crowd size from yesterday was a fake image

It then corrected itself, but not until many on the right seized on it and amplified it

Rubio just proved he is a tiny dickhead. Way to go traitor. Send him to Guantanamo Bay for his prison sentence.

Yikes — WP reports Rubio turned over gang informants to El Salvador to get that deal to let Trump send immigrants to their hard labor prison without due process.

A lawless regime.

The republicans are trying so hard to take away that vote. Six of the SCOTUS needs to be held accountable for breaking their oath to the constitution. I would love to see all of them get some prison time. Justice is what I call it.

Trump’s AI video targeting the No Kings protest is a sad reflection of how far he’s slipped from reality. Hillary’s comment about it made us laugh. 😂

But ICE budget can be equaled to third largest military budget in the world. Kristi just got not one but two private jets. Cost $172 million but military and veterans nada. Others that have to work zero. What the hell is wrong with the republicans? Grow some balls.

So since July 1st if they work the last week in Oct it will have been 25 days total the House has worked. Cut their pay and all benefits. No work no pay.

Mike Johnson’s not a Speaker; he’s a spokesman. The House doesn’t move until Trump says fetch.

Johnson won’t bring the House back until Trump wants them back.

I'm tired of seeing white Democrats make excuses for white Dem candidates who said horrible racist and sexist things because nobody thought to even do some basic online research to vet this guy.

And they all skim right over the fact that he worked for Blackwater.

Because Blackwater changed it's name several times after gaining notoriety.

No, bro — It’s not “cancel culture”, it’s consequence culture.

Stephen Smith isn’t being “canceled,” he’s being called out.
