In light of Trump's duplicity and collusion with Russian aggression, more towns should add the flag of Ukraine to their municipal displays, imho.

Took this photo this morning on the lawn of the Municipal Building in my little town of Maplewood, NJ, showing the Ukrainian flag (which has been displayed for the past three years in support). As I left, I passed a woman who told me, “I’m here to take the same picture.”
I live in a great town.

Apparently the new right-wing talking point is that the No Kings protests had “too many old people.” I didn’t realize there was an age limit on defending your health care and Social Security.

There was an incredible turnout across small-town USA! Many events weren’t even on our radar. Our coalition initially tracked around 3,000 events, but the number has now surged past 4,000 and counting.

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.

The new MAGA party line about the #NoKIngs protesters has given up the "terrorists/illegals/criminals" mantras and instead says it was only old white people.
