Guys my little town of Coupeville Washington had about 4000 people show up for #NoKings according to organizer estimates

In my relatively small city of Covington WA, with a population of about 21,000, the turn out for today’s No Kings protest is currently conservatively estimated at 2,000 plus. So around 10% of the population lining the main road through the town. This is the biggest protest I’ve seen in Covington.

Haven't seen an official crowd size estimate yet for the #NoKings protest and march in #Eugene #Oregon, but it was YUGE. But I can tell you this:

The march started at one end of downtown, and wove thru downtown streets forever. Started at the Federal Courthouse, went down ninth all the way to Olive, down to fifth and back to City Hall in a continuous line of peaceful but pissed off people.

Gunna say easily 5,000 people.

My #nokings suggestion, for when The People retake the government:

June 14 should be designated a national holiday. I suggest we call it Immigration Day, in celebration of the USA as a nation of immigrants.

(I know some people have their birthdays on June 14, but it is what it is!)

LA Times: Trump’s case for sending troops to help ICE involves precedent from Fugitive Slave Act

"...But sending troops in to assist ICE has less in common with Johnson’s move than it does with President Millard Fillmore’s actions a century earlier, Mirasola said. Beginning in 1850, the Houston law professor said, Fillmore sent troops to accompany federal marshals seeking to apprehend escaped slaves who had fled north...."

An estimated 10,000 people in Hartford, Connecticut! It’s an amazing thing to sing the national anthem — shoulder to shoulder in a protest. #nokings

We have a motto here in Virginia….”Sic semper tyrannis!” Or, “thus always to tyrants.”

You can also modify Boromir’s quote from Fellowship of the Ring: “America has no king, America needs no king."

I went to a Shabbat service this morning at a wealthy suburban Conservative Jewish synagogue to celebrate a friends' daughter's bat mitzvah.
The rabbi started his sermon with several minutes of praise for the fact that #Israel had just started a war with #Iran.
The best part, according to the rabbi, was that the IDF's preemptive offensive strikes had, miraculously, harmed only their intended targets. According to him, there were no civilian casualties whatsoever. A Friday the 13th miracle!

Oh, I forgot to mention that after the offensively Israel-apologist sermon, this congregation ended their morning service by singing the Israel national anthem "Hatikvah".
Again: you don't get to criticize Israel's detractors for equating being Jewish with supporting Israel if you, the Jews, make supporting Israel literally part of your religious liturgy.

This morning I finally found the courage to send a letter about this experience to the rabbi who gave this appalling sermon. I've published the letter here: blog.kamens.us/2025/06/16/a-le…
I sent a copy of it to the synagogue's other rabbi because I'm fairly certain she doesn't share her colleague's views, and perhaps knowing he's receiving letters like this will give her some support for doing something about them.

That orange wannabe dictator said to his supporters this morning, "America First means what I say it means!". I don't think that he has absorbed the message of the #NoKings counterprotest yet.

#NoKings protest in sleepy little Pleasant Hill, CA, east of SF. I'd guess between 1,000 and 2,000 people, lining both sides of a couple of blocks and filling the City Hall plaza.
