What do women wear to law conferences these days help!

Is a shift dress and a blazer appropriate? Pants? Full court attire? Can I wear a tshirt thing under the blazer?

If the right are gonna call all these protestors paid, they should be praising antifa for being job creators in this economy!

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.

Side note: We’re currently tracking over 5 million and counting! It’s still early, and we’re staying conservative in our numbers until everything is fully verified.

No Kings rally in Tallahassee where several thousand attended with many drive by cars blowing horns and gesturing with thumbs up. We even have our own frog and unicorn. Thanks for the idea, Portland!

🇺🇸 In Highlands, North Carolina, a town of 1,200 souls, 600 came to say they will serve no king. Pirates, unicorns, prophets, and patriots, all faithful to the oldest American religion, rebellion dressed in humor and truth.

A couple stands in a crowd in Highlands, North Carolina, holding a large handmade sign reading “LET THEM EAT CAKE.” The sign lists rising prices and the Trump family’s wealth increase. One wears a colonial wig mask, mocking monarchy. Flags wave behind them. October 18, No Kings Day.

A man in a yellow shirt stands beneath a pedestrian crossing sign holding a bold placard that reads, “Jesus Comes: BUT The devil’s in the WHITEHOUSE.” Autumn leaves scatter around his feet. Highlands, NC, No Kings Day, October 18.

Two older protesters sit side by side with handmade signs. One reads, “Hate Never Made Anything Great.” The other, shaped like a gold crown, declares, “WORSE Than a KING: One Nation Under God, Not Under Immoral Abuser of Power.” Highlands, NC, October 18, No Kings Day.

This is quite the crowd! You have to understand, there’s a football game here today. 76,000 are in the stadium for Wisconsin vs Ohio State, and yet this many people came out to protest instead.
