Our democracy belongs to us.

A person holding a protest sign that reads "I am a patriot I love our Constitution and democracy"

A person holding a protest sign that reads "I love the USA, that's why I'm here"

I’ve seen just one counter-protester at No Kings San Diego. He’s got a Trump 2024 flag and this guy has been following him around for probably an hour playing Benny Hill and circus music.

Per CNN, the White House has just issued a two-word response to what may be the largest day of protest in US history—and those two words perfectly encapsulate why No Kings Day exists.

The response from would-be King Donald to outrage over his destruction of our traditions and norms is, "Who cares?"

The fact that all of these accounts were created today is WILD. And should tell you a whole hell of a lot about what they’re trying to do.

Don't engage. Just block. They want to push their rage bait on here. Don't give them the satisfaction.

It's actually a lot more leg strength than you would think! My arm and core strength were trash when I tried it, and I was still able to manage some pretty cool stuff on my first try!

Like, I already feel like a creature briefly emerging from their cave for sustenance, no need to reinforce it. It's just rude. 😅
