Ha!! Again, I give it up to our sage neighbors to the north in Canada. Which I’m happily less than three hours below the border of. There’s a banging No Kings solidarity effort today in Montreal.
The irony of it being Trooping of the Colour today in Maman England isn’t wasted. 🤴
The damned vertebra break prevented me from attending in person, but I’m tremendously proud that my wee Vermont village, population 210, had a showing of at least a hundred. 🌟🌟🌟
Mercy bukkups. Could have been far worse. 😊
The lovely SnowShadow from 🇨🇦 sent me links to terrific live protest feeds — and I feel that MSNBC has had excellent protest coverage, considering how much the violence in Minnesota and Israel/Iran are by necessity flooding the national news cycles.

🇺🇸🇺🇦 U.S. Defense Secretary Hegsett confirmed the U.S. has redeployed counter-drone air defense systems from Ukraine to the Middle East.
“At a congressional hearing I was asked: ‘Did you really move counter-drone systems from Ukraine to the Middle East?’ I answered: ‘Yes, we did.’ We are using all available means to protect OUR people in the region and worldwide. Small drones today pose a serious threat — and we are as prepared as possible.”
SO glad to see this.
#Minnesota, you are 💪🏼

in reply to MineEyesDazzle • • •I'm so proud of our #50501Houston organizers and volunteers. We kicked ass today. We had amazing material support from Indivisible, AFT/AFL-CIO, Harris County Democratic Party, Party for Socialism & Liberation, and Refuse Fascism. Thanks to the many volunteer Houstonians who signed up to help make a difference!
Shout out to the Houston chapter of National Lawyers Guild for providing Legal Observers today, and Shep Boys Waste Mgmt of Cypress for a great discount and great service.
