Apparently this is the boogeyman that Trump is saying was at the No Kings protest. It is a Hamas member, in LGBTQ garb and has a unicorn hat.

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

The image is taken from an angle, and you can see the ocean tilting 30 degrees in the distance, with a huge crowd in front of it. In the foreground, you can see the giant American flag that is being held up by hundreds of protesters clustered around its edges.

This is the human banner from the air. It's sign made from masses of people standing together to form letters. It reads "No Kings Yes on 50." There is an American flag in the middle and a thick border around the banner. (Prop 50 is a California state proposition to gerrymander the state to create more blue districts, in order to combat the Texas law that gerrymanders their state to create more red districts.)

This is what this “Antifa” bullshit is all about: It’s about coming for you and anyone who would stand up to the authoritarians.

Are YOU Antifa?

Nonviolent public protests can generate dramatic changes in public opinion and, ultimately, in public awareness and public policy as well. The civil rights movement managed to topple what @mariajstephan.bsky.social calls "white supremacist authoritarianism." #NoKings www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnb...

Opinion | Republicans' attacks on 'No Kings' protests reek of desperation

Republicans’ fictional portrait is part of a strategy to stop the resistance before it flexes its growing power.

They likely have a name for it internally, and will eventually reveal their plan. The people the United States defeated during WWII; have reanimated, breached the gates, and now occupy the White House

Anindya Ghosh @anindyag.bsky.social · 1d

There is no plan to reopen the government. I hope you realize that. Trump hates the United States, because it’s somewhat diverse and proves anyone can be successful… under the right conditions. He and his mafia want to destroy it and establish a new, NAZI-like system.

Pritzker: "Stephen Miller is clearly ordering people to break the law. So he should know that yeah, it may be three years from now that he is held accountable, but I think it's important for them to know that whatever they do now, it's not like we're going to forget."
