If you’re undocumented, don’t march tomorrow. Stay home. Let the rest of us get this one. Solidarity ✊🏿✊🏾✊🏽✊🏼

Born in 1975, I represent the one generation of women who had rights. I’m fighting for my daughters and granddaughters. Fuck this shit.

Hit the streets tomorrow. Be nonviolent. Be joyfully defiant. Be defiantly joyful. Ridicule him. Condemn fascism. Oppose I.C.E. Affirm diversity. Embody America. Love your neighbor. Refuse to be intimidated. Be safe. Be loud. Be encouraged. #NoKingsDay

Happy Obama Appreciation Day.

They wanted max cruelty. Shock and awe for the cameras. But all they did was traumatize a bunch of poor kids who’ll never forget it. An L.A. mom, US citizen, watched as unmarked vehicles rolled up. Masked, heavily armed ICE agents, guns drawn. And Cosplay Kristi Noem right there playing warlord!

It feels like a terrifying number of people in law enforcement are just dying to inflict violence on the American people. I hope the many men and women who take their vow to protect and serve seriously are brave enough to stand up to the corruption and ensure our human/civil rights are protected.

Not too many Black folks will be surprised that the very first civilian Trump’s Marines detained in Los Angeles was a Black man. A veteran.

Reminder to the US Marines in Los Angeles: It is unlawful to obey a unlawful order.

According to the National Weather Service, there’s a 90% chance of rain and thunderstorms for Grandpa Taco-Rico’s vanity parade.

BREAKING: I feel sick! krassencast.com/p/us-militar...

You also get a dog smile today

No f*cking kidding! I live in the occupied city of Los Angeles, and we can confirm this to be true. 🚨 ICE detentions of non-criminals rise 800% under Trump

The world is in chaos and literally on fire and that’s exactly how the orange felon wants it. Time to start referring to him as a brutal dictator as well as a convicted criminal.

“Border patrol came without a warrant to my family’s business. They took my cousin who is a US citizen. This happened 6/12/25 at 4:33pm” 👇🏼 Naty2023 TikTok

They are bootlicking, milquetoast wimps. Cowards. Weak in the face of the very thing they were supposed to fight against. Limp in an authoritarian takeover. Pushovers in the fight against those who plan to harm their communities and families. jesspiper.substack.com/p/the-bigges...

Maybe when reality sets in that white folks are going to have to pitch in to work in the fields because of our self-inflicted labor shortage — Republicans will finally get on board with raising the national minimum wage.

BREAKING: This is SO Embarrassing. US Soldiers are practicing in Washington D.C. for Trump's Military/Birthday Parade this weekend. This reminds me of North Korea. How about you?

This hits hard! An L.A. protest in the 1930s, pushing back against illegal immigration raids. During the Great Depression, thousands of Mexican immigrants and their U.S.-born kids were deported. Racism and economic fear drove it then, just like now.

Today a number of veterans, one being 80 years old, were arrested at the Capitol building in DC for peacefully protesting against the unconstitutional unlawful assembly of the orange felon’s dictator march. I stand with these heroes who stand against fascism.

The irony of a five-time draft dodger holding a military parade for his birthday … Tell me, O Muse, how does one laugh and vomit at the same time?

BREAKING: A Kansas state court reversed a decision that would require transgender people in Kansas to have the wrong gender markers on their IDs.

Since red states love borders and authoritarianism so much, why not build a wall around themselves and leave blue states alone? Is it because they need blue state tax dollars to subsidize their lives?

Do not psych yourself out of going to #NoKings Day because of scary-sounding viral content. That’s not the vibe. This is a mass demonstration designed to be big, safe, and accessible. I can't wait to see you all out there. ♡

ICE picked the wrong neighborhood 💥

Trans people deserve the freedom to control our bodies and lives.

What happened to Senator @padilla.senate.gov yesterday was appalling. In America, we don’t silence or handcuff people who disagree with you.

Martin Luther King Jr. was labeled radical by the white establishment. The FBI spied on him, trying to take him down. He still chose nonviolence. Peaceful protest was his power—even when they called him dangerous. “Radical” doesn’t mean you’re wrong… it means you’re getting close to the truth.

Dear Leader would never lie to you.

Mike Johnson said that Gavin Newsom should be “tarred and feathered.” I wish Mike would keep his sexual fantasies to himself

Young people have the numbers to flip the House and take the Speaker’s gavel from Mike Johnson. @votersoftomorrow.org is doing just that. We’re announcing a $3M organizing program across 18 Congressional districts — to show Mike he pissed off the wrong generation. thehill.com/homenews/cam...

“We should measure the prosperity of a nation not by the number of millionaires, but by the absence of poverty, the prevalence of health, the efficiency of the public schools, and the number of people who can and do read worthwhile books.” ~ W.E.B. Du Bois: A True Patriot

A reminder that the MAGA regime destroyed the nuclear deal that President Obama had secured with Iran and now the orange felon is trying to copy what Obama already did before he fucked it all up. What a deranged idiotic sadistic criminal asshole.

Two Minnesota lawmakers and their spouses were shot by a man impersonating a police officer. The suspect: a white male with brown hair, dressed like a cop. 📌 Sen. John Hoffman and Rep. Melissa Hortman, along with their spouses, were shot in overnight attacks in Champlin and Brooklyn Park.

Just listened to a CNN segment that Iran could activate its cells in U.S. to carry out attacks. And my thoughts immediately went to Trump shifting counterterrorism units to immigration and putting a 22 year, whose experience includes assistant in a grocery store, in charge of terrorism prevention

Trump in 2011: "Our president will start a war with Iran because he has absolutely no ability to negotiate. He's weak and he's ineffective..." This video aged well because it reminds us that Trump has always done Nazi 101 and accused his opponents of what he actually does.

There is no bottom: 80 year-old veteran arrested, arms handcuffed behind his back, even though he is physically disabled for protesting Trump’s military parade. Pure evil!

Bill Maher reminds me of that snot-nosed little jerk in your 5th grade class who always reminded teacher they forgot to assign homework.

An Army vet heading to the VA took a wrong turn—and was detained by Marines in LA. While they acted professionally, their detaining him was likely illegal under the Posse Comitatus Act. It’s another line being crossed—and it puts our Marines in a bad spot. www.reuters.com/world/us/us-...

Nights of BLUE SKIES (sound up) DAY 13 JUN 2025 HAPPENING NOW OUR UNITED STATES VETERANS THERE FIRST AMENDMENT RIGHTS Protesting Trump's military shakedown of our Country They wanted to sit on the Capitol Steps That's all Now being arrested by Capitol Police NO KINGS WE MARCH

I'm a human rights lawyer. If you're exercising your human right to protest on June 14, here are 13 rules I recommend you follow. No paywall. Free access. Please do read and share: www.qasimrashid.com/p/13-rules-t...

“ICE is currently in parks on the Westside separating caregivers from kids…Children are being left alone while nannies are being handcuffed” (From a friend who is a parent, who posted the message below on FB) ICE is not only kidnapping folks, they are creating opportunities for other kidnappers…

Everyone going out to protest tomorrow, I want you to above all BE SAFE!!! Check out my latest about how to make sure your time exercising your first amendment right is done safely and effectively!! open.substack.com/pub/harrydun...

Thank you E. Jean Carroll, for speaking truth to power. You're a person of honor and courage.

I really need this Bobby story right now

This year alone, the ACLU and our affiliates have conducted over 150 Know Your Rights trainings, where we’ve ensured supporters are informed on how to use their rights, follow the law, and advocate for our communities while keeping each other safe. Community care is part of our resistance.

Pete Hegseth better make sure he gets a pardon Because it sure looks like he violated the Posse Comitatus Act "Whoever..uses..the [military] as a posse comitatus or otherwise to execute the laws shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than two years, or both" 18 US Code § 1385

Just type in your zip code and find a No Kings event near you. www.fiftyfifty.one

Hey MAGA, if I told you she was a Fox News reporter would it make her more believable?

Friendly reminder for everyone hitting the streets today- be smart, stay safe, stay peaceful. If there’s a problem, walk away. Don’t take the bait. We need you here tomorrow.

Nights of BLUE SKIES 💙 Just have to share TOMORROW AMERICA NO KINGS DAY OF DEFIANCE To all of you marching tomorrow I send my heartfelt gratitude and love Be safe Be strong In America We Don't Do Kings

Now we’re arresting 80 year old veterans peacefully protesting Trump’s military vanity birthday parade on Capitol Hill.

Obama Day!

Due to ICE raids, warrantless detentions of legal migrants & US citizens, and a now-deleted CBP post (below), the Seattle Reign issued the warning below to fans. ICE confirmed it will be at the FIFA Club World Cup opener in Miami on June 14.

I need y’all to understand that the entirety of downtown DC is inaccessible right now. Street closures are the worst I’ve ever seen. Barricades look like what you’d expect in a war zone.

KKK BARBIE NOT ONLY INCOMPETENT VILE, EVIL, AND CRUEL STOP ICE NOW

REMINDER: Netanyahu convinced Trump in 2018 to withdraw US from Iran nuclear deal that Obama and allies had negotiated. That Deal would've prevented Iran from getting a nuclear weapon. The death and destruction we're seeing now is 100% bc of Trump & Netanyahu www.timesofisrael.com/in-recording...

"Kristi Noem needs to...answer questions. ICE needs to show their faces - no more masks like 1800's bank robbers or Russian KGB agents in the streets..." - @RepSwalwell Join the #NoKingsProtest on Saturday. If we don't show up, Democracy dies. www.nokings.org

IMPORTANT. Stop sharing messages like this. This is not a sit-in and it is not a wise decision if violence breaks out.

What’s happened and is happening in Los Angeles is a personal question to all of us, regardless of where we live, asking how much we’re willing to do to preserve the America we call home and claim to love. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/we-are-all... #NoKingsDay

Donald Trump failed to persuade a federal appeals court to reconsider the $5 million verdict won by E. Jean Carroll after a jury found that he sexually abused and defamed the former magazine columnist in the 1990s. www.nbcnews.com/politics/don...

Explosions rock Tel Aviv. But don’t worry—this would never happen if Donald Trump were president. …Oh wait. He is president. And it is happening.

We are the vast majority, Donald. We are people of every shape and shade. We are people of every nation and orientation. We are cisgender and transgender. We are immigrants and refugees and those born here... johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/we-the-peo... #NoKingsDay

It's not just undocumented people who should be careful If you are a green card holder, are in the US on a visa, have Temporary Protected Status or are pursuing an asylum claim Do NOT march without consulting an attorney The Trump administration has been very aggressive even to those here legally

No Kings Day” protest in West Palm Beach, Florida — miles from Mar-a-Lago!

June 14, 2025 Presidents Barack Obama & Joe Biden Appreciation Day

In lieu of syrup of Ipecac, simply watch any video of Kristi Noem trying to rationalize her sadism.

Senator Grassley's new version of the budget bill would limit the power of judges to block President Trump's unconstitutional actions. They're trying to sneak this in behind our backs — but we're not backing down.

Gavin Newsom spoke yesterday about longtime migrant workers—parents, farm & construction workers, and kids left behind. None had records; many were taken at work. The Trump admin lied: families ARE being separated. This won’t make us safer—but it WILL hurt our economy and food supply.

GOOD MORNING SKIES OF BLUE TODAY WE SHOW THE WORLD THERE ARE MORE OF US THAN THEM NO KINGS DAY OF DEFIANCE With Love and Gratitude Thank you To All of YOU who will raise your voice LOUD and Strong Be Safe Be Vigilant NO KINGS DAY OF DEFIANCE WE'RE ALL IN THIS TOGETHER 🌈🇺🇸🇲🇽🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🌈

What a good look for Republicans The marines saved Los Angeles by detaining a veteran on his way to the VA. Doesn’t everyone feel safer now in our police state? Exclusive: US Marines carry out first known detention of civilian in Los Angeles, video shows

Planned protests today! Are you taking part? Where?

Netanyahu has been for years claiming Iran is on verge of a nuclear weapon. Netanyahu is a war criminal and a liar. His attack on Iran is a clear violation of International law. Netanyahu needs to be charged with more war crimes so that if he ever visits a nation that is part of ICC he's arrested

My birthday wish for Donald Trump is that this is his last.

Just a reminder that the money being spent on Trump’s ego parade could feed every single homeless veteran in America for more than four months.

America bestowed the light of democracy to the world by defeating King George - 250 years later, millions of Americans are okay with a tyrant on a golden throne wearing makeup and a wig crapping out hate tweets at 2AM.

MAGA pretends to be against forever wars yet literally voted for a war between Iran and Israel as well as for Russia’s terroristic war in Ukraine to escalate, but then again they stormed the US Capitol on January 6 2021. They are as pro-war and pro-death as you can get.

Just heard a noise from the kitchen, so I reflexively yelled at my cat only to realize both of them are actually just chilling with me in the living room, so I’m pretty sure I just told a poltergeist to “stay the $&%# away from the butter you little creep”

MN Sen. John Hoffman and Rep. Melissa Hortman, as well as their spouses, were shot by a man impersonating a police officer. No more masks for law enforcement, ICE, anyone. We need to see faces, badges, and judicial warrants EVERY TIME No more unmarked vehicles. www.fox9.com/news/melissa...

250 years ago, Americans rejected the rule of a mad king. TOMORROW, we’re taking to the streets again to say #NOKINGS 2,000 peaceful protests are planned in small towns and major cities across the country. Join your community and find your event at nokings.org

Representative McIver was criminally charged because she tried to inspect the Delaney Hall ICE detention center in Newark It’s been reported that 4 immigrants have escaped from this facility Don’t be shocked if Trump, Kristi Noem or Tom Homan try to somehow link McIver with this incident

“They didn’t sign up for this.” VoteVets' MG (Ret.) Paul Eaton says Troops deployed to Los Angeles are being used for police work they aren’t trained for—and never enlisted to do. This isn’t defense. It’s political misuse of the military.

When the National Institutes of Health cut billions of dollars of research funding earlier this year, it jeopardized our wellbeing and scientific progress. We'll be in court Monday arguing that scientific research should be guided by evidence, not politics.

NEW: The Trump administration is now claiming that they're detaining Mahmoud Khalil based on false allegations related to his green card application after a federal judge found that detaining him on foreign policy grounds was unconstitutional.

Repost this enough and Trump, Noem, Johnson, and all the MAGA faithful will begin accusing protesters of engaging in chemical warfare by attempting to make law enforcement with allergies sneeze.

"Your timely reminder that Obama negotiated a great deal with Iran (JCPOA) which had halted its nuclear program in its tracks. Trump ENDED that deal in 2018. Iran then resumed enriching Uranium, and now, here we are, with another preventable war on our hands." Mikel Jollett

The most disturbing part of the current moment isn’t just that the right is trying to manifest violence, it’s how visibly and uncontrollably entertained they are by the thought of it. They feed on cruelty and outrage. Starve them with peace and loud truth.

President Trump is trying to write himself a blank check to use the military to stifle dissent and target immigrants anywhere in the country. Tell your members of Congress to take action NOW.

Maximus could not be more chilled out since being rescued 🥰

It's the least I can do.

ACLU LGBTQ Case of the Day 🏛️ The first permitted Pride parade in U.S. history took place in Los Angeles in 1970 after a successful ACLU lawsuit challenged the police commission’s unequal financial burden put on the parade organizers.

This sign Worthy of reposting All day long Project 2026 🎯🎯🎯🎯 🎯 Tomorrow NO KINGS LET'S SHOW AMERICA 🇺🇸 Kudos to this fine fellow making this sign

This news out of Minnesota is absolutely horrifying... Jesus 😔

I’m just asking you to pause or reflect or pray and to ask yourself the questions: What kind of person do I tell myself I am; about what matters to me, about the people I care about, about the mark I want to make on the world while I’m here? johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/a-letter-t...

This is awesome! It’s way post time for politeness. We need to call out their lies loudly every time.
