One of the most TRUE signs I have ever seen at a march. Write this down and act upon it, friends.

If you are just waking up, these should be most of the new accounts that are MAGA or have posted MAGA content since the Us Government decided to join in unison at 6pm on a Friday night

Any American medium that fails to cover the largest protests in American history is failing in the basic mission of informing the public about the facts.

I hear from informed sources that these #NoKings rallies are more than twice as big as last time, making them easily the largest protests in US history. Thanks to everyone and especially organizers.

Warren: The only movement these Republicans can manage is bowing down to Trump. When you ask them about today, they claim the No Kings Rally is anti-American. They’re wrong. Hundreds of thousands of people protesting peacefully for what they believe in—that is deeply American. That is patriotism.

Is it me or has everyone spent the day choked up by our fellow Americans and patriots showing up and showing their love for America?

#NoKings and no hate. Just hope that our country might someday live up to its promises.

Student media rules. They are lapping a lot of the spineless media orgs this year and showing how solidarity is the way.

I had a great time, though the highlight was actually when I was walking over with my American flag and a Trump supporter opened her car window to yell at me and she rear ended the guy in front of her.
