Notably: every single rally (including in the small towns) was bigger than the surrounding police force available. That kind of image event is VERY IMPORTANT if you're, I dunno, demonstrating social coherence AGAINST a fascist government and it's makeshift gestapo.

Portland, I love us so much. There is no way to appropriately convey how proud and encouraged and inspired I am by us. Good people. So many good people here. And all over this nation.

Here's what really happened at No Kings 2 in Portland, Oregon

No way James! You’re never supposed to get them wet, nor feed them after midnight.

Oh, wait a minute…

I saw a young girl holding one that read:

“Tomorrow there will be more of us.”

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.

Don’t take the bait, don’t share the sh*t. He’s playing y’all & getting you to stop talking about huge No Kings turnout today.

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

The thing about No Kings the GOP doesn't seem to get isn't that we hate you as much as it is that we recognize you for what you are.

You're a threat. You're a threat to our lives, our livelihoods, our families, our friends.

We WILL drive you out of power. You haven't given us any other choice.

We saw a great number of families today! Parents with kids of all ages!

It was really great to see as this directly affects their future.

In case you’re wondering the turnout was HUGE! It was advertised as 11–12 and by the time we got there at 11:30 that shot had been taken.

Even then there were people still showing up. Easily 2K at this 1 of 2 events at Ocean Beach today.

An impressive (and, to be honest, terrifying video).

Over 16,000 drones flew up in the sky in China, setting a new Guinness record.

Just like last year, one computer was used to manage the whole show. The system tracked each drone in real time.

Another great sign I saw today, this one being wielded by a boy:

Can we just skip to the part where he flees to Argentina?

They truly are mentally ill.

They probably think this will enrage us. Or upset us. Or make us sick.

All it actually does is make us resolute. It simply proves beyond doubt that today was needed.

Reminds me of a sign a young girl was brandishing today: Tomorrow there will be more of us.
