As usual, a great read from Will, but does the 7 million number underrepresent the insane amount of crowded small town and city protests that took place yesterday?

It’s important to note that phenomena was a record breaker, too. Social media is littered with evidence of that.
The 7 million Americans who took the streets for 'No Kings' made history, and they did something even more important

They got under the skin of Donald Trump and his dictatorial regime, on a day that showed that most Americans love democracy instead

A massive turnout of 7 million and a panicked White House showed Saturday why the No Kings protests matter, a lot.

My non-negotiable demand of the next president:

Tear down the Trump ballroom immediately after the inauguration with all of those motherfuckers inside.
did the clash ever write an ironic song about longing for a "good" military coup to come along to save the day? because haha that would be so funny joe strummer not

Chip Roy: "The truth is the marxist, radicals, and Islamists the Democratic Party promoted this weekend, they cannot handle the truth. The truth is that there is a king and that king is Jesus. And the president has been willing to say it, & Charlie Kirk was willing to say it & he got killed for it."

Perhaps I'm crazy, but I tend to think that it's a bad thing when the President lies about things we can all see. And it's *not great* that many in the media are so eager to let him play up those lies.

I attended a couple of protests and read accounts of others and while I Do Not Regret To Inform We Are Going To Win may be a tad strong, the portents are positive. edroso.substack.com/p/joy-to-the...

Hey, AmazonWeb Service {AWS) @awscloud.bsky.social, since you're apparently taking out the world now, maybe an update would be nice.

There were many great low-budget indie films in the early 90s and some grossly overrated ones (*cough* Clerks *cough*), but the most criminally neglected one is "Laws of Gravity," starring Edie Falco in one of her first movie roles and Peter Greene.

You really need to see Greene act in something.

I haven't recovered from Halloween in 2002 when I went as Richard Reid, the shoe bomber, and everyone thought I was Howard Stern. Haven't dressed up since.

I gave ChatGPT one more time to self-correct regarding Jimmy Carter and it didn't so I finally asked if Carter hadn't congratulated Trump "because he's dead"...
We're wiping out rainforests to be told by an idiot robot that Jimmy Carter is still alive...
I just asked ChatGPT if all of the living presidents congratulated Trump on his recent Nobel-worthy Gaza nothingburger and apparently Jimmy Carter still walks amongst us...

My friend Ahmed reports: "After we rejoiced at the ceasefire, hoping for survival and life, the sky is now raining gunpowder on Gaza. The bombing continues, brutally. The agreement was merely ink on paper."

Bari Weiss doing exactly what she was hired to do
Across all the major outlets — NYT, WSJ, WaPo, LAT, CNN, ABC, CBS, Fox News, NBC, CNBC, NPR, Bloomberg — the only outlet without a No Kings story on its home page is CBS News.

For every other outlet, it's near the top. Even Fox News is running with "Nationwide unrest looms as thousands mobilize"
I quite liked his "New York Groove" song until I didn't.
