Today in 2014, 11 years ago: A Ukraine military Ilyushin Il-76 airlifter is shot down, killing all 49 people on board.
My local iteration of the #NoKings event went off without a hitch. Minimal confrontation, no violence, and an all-around peaceful event. The sign I had printed, which I carried around, now hangs on my bedroom wall.

#RIP 🥀
I just returned the from #NoKings protest in #Logan #Utah. I stayed for the entire 2-hour event and estimate 350 to 400 people were there, it was probably more.
In a county of about 150k people, the vast majority Trump and MAGA supporters, it was an impressive sight.
Writing down my observations and thoughts now - will share more soon.

Respect for your President and his fascist government is at a very low level.
We're not very impressed with the idiots who voted for fascism either. Too much history in Europe tell us how that ends 🤨
The rest of your are very cool and we hope you'll be able to restore sanity and democracy sooner rather than later 🙂🤷♂️

in reply to AI6YR Ben • • •"...When the BBC visited Oxnard on Wednesday, a US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) truck was seen parked outside an organic produce trucking company. A security guard insisted their visit was not related to immigration, saying: "This is not ICE. We would never let ICE in here."
Many tractors and trucks sat idle surrounded by acres of farmland, as an unknown number of workers chose to stay home.
...
The impact is having ripple effects on other businesses. Watching from her family's Mexican restaurant, Raquel Pérez saw masked CBP agents attempt to enter Boskovich Farms, a vegetable and herb packing facility across the street."
