Resistance to autocracy, oligarchy and kakistocracy is the highest form of patriotism. I’m not ready to abandon the US Constitution, which has served us so well for so long.

Thank you to everyone at the #NO_KINGS rallies for making your voices heard & being part of history.
The massive crowds were joyful, passionate & spectacular!

So were the signs...
This!!

My parents took me to my first protest when I was like five years old. So not a big deal to me. But so many of my friends were afraid. I was so proud of them for coming out this weekend and seeing what it’s really like. Like you, they loved it and found their courage!😍
The pre-existing conditions clause saved my life. I have a potentially life-threatening, chronic illness, and I can’t afford the one year waiting period there was before the ACA.
I’m from MI and my rural relatives, some of whom are farmers, say they don’t care as long as Trump keeps deporting Hispanics.😞. As long as Republicans keep hating the “right” people, they will keep electing them🙄

seems that RFK is clearing the path for his CDC to do tuskegee syphillis experiments as a matter of course. in other news, RFK is a genuine monster who relishes in the pain and suffering of those he feels he has control or dominion over
RFK is undoing human subjects protections so he can conduct placebo trials of vaccines. That means infecting people knowingly. I wonder who will “volunteer” for these trials? If history is any guide, a lot of incarcerated and other powerless people.
Dismantling the Institutional Review Board (IRB), that oversees all human subjects research, is bad. Really bad.
Sadly, for decades, Cubans have reveled in having special treatment while advocating for harsh immigration rules for non-Cubans. Their hypocrisy is catching up with them.

Trump responds to No Kings by posting video depicting him as a king

No Kings Day is drawing to a close, but the movement endures. Across the nation, millions stood up to tyranny and stood together for democracy.

Thank you to our incredible guests — and to YOU for showing up and speaking out. Freedom is always worth fighting for.

Telling moment: I was walking back from the rally, but a couple miles from it, carrying nothing but my gigantic American flag. An eight year old on his bike sees me with it and yells "No Kings!!" with absolute conviction.

My friends, they have lost the flag.

I think today has been a massive success by the organizers and it needs no defending on the merits and any leftists who would seek to downplay it have demonstrated once again how they're completely useless by choice in this moment.

The Trump administration is offering $60K in student loan forgiveness as a recruitment tool for ICE, which just proves fighting Biden on student loan relief was never about the loans or “paying your own debt.” It was about who was offering it and who it would’ve helped.

somewhere in portland, there's one person, or a small handful of people, who came up with the inflatable costume idea, and I feel like they deserve our immense respect for defining the obvious developing aesthetic of the contemporary battle against fascism

On the eve of #NoKings

The effect of Trump’s policies on health insurance have been revealed

A 60 year couple in Kentucky making $85,000 might pay $23,700 more

In Nevada-$18,100 more

In Minnesota-$15,500

In Maryland-$13,700

It’s absolutely unsustainable

THIS is why there is a Trump shutdown
