I live in a small town outside of Portland, evenly split R and D. No Kings rally here was very large, folks of all ages.

Deep love of country was palpable.

Talked with a retired Navy officer. By no means a progressive, he was utterly disgusted with what Trump has done.

Truth is going to prevail.

Great team tabling at No Kings in Boston today!

Folks were excited to sign for housing justice and democracy ballot questions and to write to their legislators about protecting our immigrant communities and taxing large corporations.

ZERO arrests at No Kings in NYC. (And the NYPD isn’t notorious for being sympathetic with people anti-Trump.)

This proves what shameless liars Speaker Mike Johnson & Karoline Leavitt are to slander the participants as violent anarchists.

DC churches rang their bells in support of protestors today.

We must keep those bells of freedom ringing.

No Kings is reporting that 7,000,000 Americans turned out to rally against Trump today.

That's over THREE TIMES the number of votes Donald Trump claims to have gotten over Kamala Harris.

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.
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.

Organizers have reported 7 million attendees at the No Kings events and we’re happy to confirm 7 million and counting! More events are still happening across the country today, so we’ll need additional time to fully certify the final numbers.

Wow—nearly 7 million people participated in No Kings:
After a week of ridiculous Republican smears and Trump claiming that “very few people are going to be there,” you just made history. #NoKings

We would like to thank the academy for being considered for this list. Truth seems hard to accept on this platform but we will continue to provide the best for our Veterans and the truth to this community! 😎

Because if WW had not consistently voted for Trump wouldn’t be no need for all this Martha!
They 100% have the right to be skeptical right now.
I think White people really need to leave the Black women who voted for Kamala (and Hillary) alone today.

They have the right to feel and say whatever they want.

You wanna actually help?

Be consistent beyond a day of marching.

That's what you can do instead of the online "well actually-ing."

I understand that non-violence will not get us far in this fight against extremist facism, however, I personally think the numbers being displayed with these #NoKings protests are a great start. 🤷🏾‍♀️

And we gotta start somewhere.

So dangerous we had to throw a missile at them, not so dangerous that we need to worry about what they were doing and why.
Breaking News: The Trump administration has decided to repatriate two survivors of a deadly U.S. strike this week on suspected drug runners in the Caribbean Sea rather than prosecute them or hold them in military detention, people with knowledge of the matter said on Saturday.
U.S. to Repatriate Survivors of Its Strike on Suspected Drug Vessel
The U.S. military rescued the two men in the Caribbean Sea after Special Operations forces fired on a semi-submersible that was assessed to be smuggling drugs.

Everybody has a role
Toni Morrison was raising children & working as an editor in the civil rights movement, she said what can I do from where I am & the time I have, she decided editing important Black work was her contribution to the struggle.

When police see Black folks, they get antsy and start inciting violence. It’s good that the protests look the way they do.
