Has anyone posted a number of the total participants in the no kings day protests?

I saw NY was 1 million but I wonder what the numbers were nationwide ?

Where I protested in SF it was the largest I’ve ever experienced outside of a Vietnam protest when I observed when I was a kid and the protests went for miles down a Main Street in SF. I have picture of myself and some friends sitting on our front porch balcony watching it !

Does anybody watch ABC evening news ?

I swear they show that Botox Barbie puppy killer commercials with her being a tough woman threatening immigrants who are not documented. I want to scream and throw something at my TV everytime she comes on. it seems before the evening news comes they show that commercial of her all the time !

Went to the No Kings March in SF and it was huge

We had went to the woman March in January 2017 but this was huge. All ages, colors, genders and everyone was peaceful. There was a large contingent of police but they were not threatening and looked chill! we never saw any agitators. I estimate 2-3 thousand people.

Tomorrow at the rallies if we see police or ice attacking protesters

We all need to shout. Shame shame shame shame on you! Freedom of speech and assembly is in our constitution. You are violating our constitution !

I know I’ll be doing it if I see ICE or military at our rallies.

Saw this video in Bluesky shared by David Bowies son

There is a color version but this explains the video to watch that even better but the black and white version if you’re interested.

Sorry YouTube videos used to embed but this one doesn’t.

I think another reason this bogus military coup attack is happening is because they are afraid of the planned June 14th

No Kings Protests. And to scare people from not attending.

I would not be surprised if there are troops on the streets that day pointing their guns at peaceful law abiding constitutional granted rights protesters.

Barack Obama reading the transcript of the orange Hitler speech on Tariffs

I'm sitting in my local social security office to apply for medicare

And they got a truly creepy photo of the orange Hitler and it is scary looking AF ! I don't like it and it gives me chills!

if I saw a stranger on the street coming towards me that looked like that I'd cross the street immediately. He looks like an evil serial killer!

Today I went to my local Marshall's and noticed an increase in prices by about $5 an item

Luckily I got a pair of pants on sale. But a couple of weeks ago when I was there the prices weren’t that high!

Just got a call from the NRCC on my landline

I’ve seen this number before and ignored but decided to answer . A lady with a southern voice said she was from the Republican Party and is calling on behalf of Speaker Johnson. I said immediately, “ Sorry I don’t vote for the Nazi party “ I hung up and it felt so good!
