So cool today at #nokings rally in #DoverDelaware. An #americaneagle circled over the festivities. Keynote speaker was #congresswomanSarahMcBride When an eagle soars overhead, you have to take that as a sign that America is winning. #democracymatters #whenwefightwewin #powertothepeople

Photo of a man at the No Kings protest wearing a unicorn costume, which makes it look like he’s riding the unicorn, and holding a sign that reads, “No King.” The man also wears a yellow paper crown and carries a small U.S. flag.

Way bigger turnout for the #NoKings protest in Provo, Utah than at the April one I attended. #PowerToThePeople #DefendDemocracy #NoKingsUtah #NoKingsProvo @sarahgibby.bsky.social

Protest sign reading ”Love America hate how Trump treats her."

It has been SUCH a joyous day. My family and I had a great time at our local No Kings Day festival (it truly was one) and we hope all y'all had as much fun celebrating and being encouraged as we did. This TRULY is what democracy looks like. #nokings #riseup #freespeech #funday #powertothepeople
