Saw multiple people with this sign at No Kings in Chicago today — and only one “we love JB Pritzker” style sign. Purely anecdotal data, but that’s a very different spread than the last couple of anti-ICE/National Guard marches downtown I went to. I just think that’s interesting.

A protester dressed as the statue of liberty (with her face obscured) holds a sign that has a photo of state police attacking someone and the words: Hey Pritzker, protect us not ICE. Call 312-814-2121 to demand no state police at Broadview.

“who cares” would be a titch more credible if they hadn’t spent all week whining about the rallies in advance.

"Who cares?" says the president about a day of peaceful NO KINGS protest in approximately 2,500 cities, towns, villages all over the United States, and in many other parts of the world.

If this boat were carrying drugs, Trump wouldn't have released the two survivors.

Ridiculous. A semisubmersible in the Caribbean crewed by Colombians and Ecuadorians is not carrying fentanyl, a drug produced in northwest Mexico, well over 1,000 miles closer to the US.

@reaDonald Trump
It was my great honor to destroy a very large
DRUG-CARRYING SUBMARINE that was navigating towards the United States on a well known narcotrafficking transit route.
U.S. Intelligence confirmed this vessel was loaded up with mostly Fentanyl, and other illegal narcotics. There were four known narcoterrorists on board the vessel. Two of the terrorists were killed. At least 25,000
Americans would die if I allowed this submarine to come ashore. The two surviving terrorists are being returned to their Countries of origin, Ecuador and Colombia, for detention and prosecution. No U.S. Forces were harmed in this strike.
Under my watch, the United States of America will not tolerate narcoterrorists trafficking illegal drugs, by land or by sea.
Thank you for your attention to this matter!
DONALD J. TRUMP
PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

I must say that I really admired John McCain. I did not agree with him on most issues but I admired his integrity, his service to our country and his belief and defense of democracy. May his memory be a blessing.

Keep an eye on him trying to pull the World Cup from Boston now because Bostonians had the moral character to exercise their First Amendment rights in protest of him.

Not trying to call any individuals out, but the photo at upper left in this screenshot is clearly of the last No Kings protest in St. Paul, Minn.

Let’s make sure to verify stuff that confirms our priors a little too well — and to insist on alt text.

A post that erroneously states, above photos, that “No Kings protests outside of the U.S. were massive today.” The first photo offered as illustration, at upper left, is a crowd shot of demonstrators who gathered during spring in St. Paul; the photo at upper right is from San Francisco, although less easily identified as so.
