I think it's one of those cross-country-ski-cycles, you know, for when you get caught in the snow.

I spoke to my nephew in Iran today. He asked me what was happening and I said, "Hich shah!" (No kings in Persian.}

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.

I don't know what we would do without the Antifa bureaucracy,

I think we had 500 in Harrisonburg, and we had a great time. No hatred of America anywhere.

Imagine being the largest newspaper in Washington, DC with the motto "Democracy Dies in Darkness" and thinking to publish this today.

You might think WaPo editors would look out the window and realize something more important is happening. But perhaps democracy already died over there.

Mayor Johnson: There are those in this country that have decided, at the behest of this president, to declare war on Chicago and American cities across this country. They have clearly decided that they want a rematch of the Civil War. We will not submit to the authoritarianism that is coming down.

Greenberg: They spent the last week on the attack against no kings, smearing all of us as anti-american. They tried to scare us out of gathering today. I have got a question for you. Are we afraid?

They'll cast these rallies as "angry" but everyone there is plainly having a great time because it's fun to get together with like-minded people to engage in the oldest American tradition: telling a tyrant to eat shit

Waking up my husband on a Saturday morning with a "hey sweetie, you were in artillery for a few years, is this safe and I'm overthinking it or is this as insane as it sounds?" and him just staring at me in horror

NYT confirms our reporting from days ago - which the WH said was fake news - that Trump and Hegseth are pulling a stunt to fire artillery rounds over I-5 between SD and LA onto Camp Pendleton as a stunt, one of the busiest highways in America. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/18/u...

Here at our local No Kings.

I’d say turnout is perhaps 4X that of June.

Sorry to inform Mike Johnson, I haven’t run into anyone paid to be here, or “antifa,” or anti-American. Many veterans. Lots of attendees thanking the pair of Fairfax Country policeman strolling around keeping an eye on things.

Deirdre Schiffling of the ACLU at the DC #NoKings rally:

"The courage that we are creating here today across the nation is contagious.

It's powerful, and it's exactly what they're afraid of."
