Wow. Very strong effort in Downtown Lousville, Kentucky for the nationwide ‘No Kings’ protests against Trump. Impressive to see in what is a pretty red state!
I’m back after a four-day internet blackout in northern Gaza… They were some of the worst days we’ve ever lived through — no water, no food, & no way to reach the outside world. We lived in complete darkness, surrounded by the sounds of bombing, fear, & hunger.
We are living in conditions beyond description، All we need now are the most basic: water, food, & medicine for my Dad.
Please, help us buy food,water, & medicine — & help save my father’s life. That’s all we ask gofund.me/b485f196

Made it to 3 rallies across Westchester, NY, today and logged 11,000 steps. Someone gave me a flag, so I have now waved a flag on Flag Day! Good turnout in each place and enthusiastic honking from the cars passing by. Time for some ice cream now. 🇺🇲 #NoKings

We could only hold out in the crowds for a couple hours before running out of spoons, but the #NoKings demo was emotionally powerful. It felt like half the city turned out.
The mood: strikingly “smash the fash”, the noise of horns and chanting loud & sustained, everyone had creative handmade signs, and the crossover with the Pride march was so colorful and gay! Grannies and teens and veterans and drag queens all chanting together and encouraging each other.
Seems like the #NoKings focus was smart. It got a lot of patriotic normies from our super-conservative region rubbing shoulders in a fun, cooperative way with folks from very different walks of life and very different messages.
