Look, I'm just a liberal living in Kim Reynolds' hell (Iowa), trying to explain to people that you should CARE about OTHER HUMANS regardless of WHERE THEY CAME FROM.
When did this country utterly destroy its empathy?
Oh. Right. When they voted for the Fanta Fascist.
TWICE.

I think today has been a massive success by the organizers and it needs no defending on the merits and any leftists who would seek to downplay it have demonstrated once again how they're completely useless by choice in this moment.

One of the overriding feelings from yesterday was ‘this is what patriotism looks like!’ And it was PEACEFUL and POWERFUL and you could feel the support of even people just driving by. This case in point from #iowa #NoKings yesterday. We have the people! They’re terrified of us!

It's official. Nearly 7 million people. Today is the single largest day of protest in American history. Americans from all corners of the country are standing up and saying #NoKings. This is what peaceful, patriotic protest looks like.

For days, Ted Cruz and others in the MAGA world claimed the No Kings rallies would turn violent.

Will they apologize now?

- $172 million for two jets
- $200 million for Trump White House
- $40 billion for Argentina.

Americans struggling with rent, to buy groceries, and have affordable health care? F YOU, says Trump.

Pritzker: Throughout history we've learned that tyranny doesn't arrive with dramatic proclamations. Most times it comes quietly wrapped in the language of law and order, with fingers pointed at someone who doesn't look like you, promising safety while demanding that we sacrifice our neighbors.

Missed sign opportunity:

I didn't take pics but the feeling of being in a group of people with no visible beginning or end was so thrilling. The opposite of online anomie, and a living counterpoint to the wary, isolated, compartmentalized world the shitheads want to make. It's simple and obvious I guess but it means a lot.

Sorry to be corny but the aerial shots of these crowds are almost indescribably moving and hopeful

Protesters formed a human banner Saturday morning at S.F.'s Ocean Beach, spelling out “NO KINGS” and “YES ON 50,” encouraging the passage of a measure on the November ballot to redraw California’s congressional districts in response to Texas’ GOP-focused remapping.

MSNBC's Vaughn Hillyard noting that TV can't fully capture the scale of the "No Kings" protests: "Forgive us, we only have so many boxes we can fix on the television screen, we know these are happening ALL over the place..."

Congrats to every Republican who warned about the massively dangerous pro-terrorist “I Hate America” rallies who now gets to see their words featured in a Daily Show montage with images of sweet little grandmothers waving little American flags
