Today from DJT: ‘A lot of people are saying maybe we’d like a dictator.’

No. No one is saying that, not a single person.

I’m on the Albertsons app and he can shove his gaslighting that prices are down. Some examples: lotion $7-$14, pecans $17/lb, Signature brand large evoo $33, a jar of Better Than Bouillon is $9, ½ gal soy milk is $6. Obv I can shop sales & elsewhere, just making a point.

It’s like, you see it and you try to process what you are seeing, but you can hardly believe your eyes. 😭

Whatever you think of the White House as a building or a symbol, the fact is that the image of it being torn apart on a whim two days after 7 million people hit the streets against autocracy is going to make a HUGE amount of people really, really angry, and that's an energy that should be harnessed.

Wow, that’s great, well done Asheville! Our local news here on the Central Coast in CA would only call ours ‘a free speech event’.

‘To speak out without fearing others and without flinching before society - this is what the sutra means when it says, “We care nothing for our bodies or lives but are anxious only for the unsurpassed way.”’

I know some people who haven’t watched or read any news all year. One was finally willing to catch up for No Kings. It’s been heartbreaking to watch them try & process all that’s happened. They had NO idea. And they STILL don’t know about ICE, they were too upset & don’t want to know more for now.

I combined my love of houseplants and crochet and made these African violets. 🌸 #flowers #bloomsky #crochet

Live your life so that millions of your fellow citizens don’t feel compelled to take to the streets to express how much they dislike you and how bad you are at your job.

So pleased to see so much joy today. It’s brave. It’s cathartic. It’s essential.

In San Luis Obispo, home of Cal Poly, our No Kings rally was filled with college students!

That is pretty amazing! I’m originally from Laguna, it would have been great to see Main Beach filled with protesters!

Elseigh @elseigh.bsky.social · 2d

A really great moment at the protest today was when a speaker asked everyone to look at one another, really see the people around us as our neighbors, our community. At first everyone looked around shyly, but then the ice was broken (pun intended ha) and that’s when the rally really took off.

SLO County News would only say that there was a ‘free speech event’ taking place today. 😡 #NoKings

ANY ARRESTS? Among the millions upon millions of "violent leftist radicals" that took to the streets today I cannot find word of a single arrest. Even when everything is peaceful there is usually an overzealous cop or something. This is unheard of. We need to beat the media over the head with it.

SEVEN MILLION. 👏👏👏👏

MoveOn @moveon.org · 2d

BREAKING: Our crowd count estimate from the No Kings coalition responsible for planning today’s event is 7 MILLION nationwide.

7 MILLION of you gathered across the country to peacefully protest today.

2 million more than the first No Kings action in June.

Randi Weingarten 🖇️📚✊🇺🇸 @rweingarten.bsky.social · 2d

It's official. Nearly 7 million people. Today is the single largest day of protest in American history. Americans from all corners of the country are standing up and saying #NoKings. This is what peaceful, patriotic protest looks like.
