These pussies love the 2nd Amendment when it comes to THEIR guns.
Their attitude is consistent - the only people who they like get civil liberties.
Also just want to point out that some of us have been screaming about this since Bush passed the Patriot Act. Every president has expanded the surveillance state.
None of this is new. I'd like to personally say that every junior fascist who called Assange or Snowden anything other than heroes - thanks, assholes.
Peaceful and successful here in St. Paul, MN. But we’re not near an ICE detention center, are we. And almost everyone here is white. Loud voices are good but when those of us not immediately effected don’t show up then we’re all in trouble.
Just back from the "no kings" gathering. Pretty peaceful. Delightful actually. Gorgeous day for a gathering. Hardly a riot or even a protest for that matter. About 1000 of us in a St. Paul MN suburb
Just got home from our rally in Oakland. SF was estimated at 500,000; we had 10,000. I’m watching the livestream of the Chicago march—it’s huge & the people are pissed! The chant “Whose streets? Our streets!” was a constant—obviously. People came out today & hopefully that gives courage to those afraid to participate to join the resistance. All comments I have seen—everywhere—were grounded in the statement that we have reached a crucial juncture in this struggle for our country & that we must save each other. Every attempt to slow them down is a good thing & at least some of MAGA can count.
The War on Terror has cost us $8 trillion dollars so far since 9/11 according to the Brown University Cost of War project. The cost of the War on Future Terrorism has not been calculated yet but so far we are cutting Public Health, Environmental Protection , civil rights and the Social Safety Net Programs to help pay for it
It always cracks me up (I have a morbid sense of humor) when I hear, “Trump can’t do that. It’s against the law”, or my personal favorite, “It’s against the Constitution”. Even a casual student of Donald Trump should know that he’s gotten away with breaking the law his entire adult life. And does anyone seriously believe that a piece of paper will stand in Trump’s way, cf., his attempt to overthrow the government, for which he was effectively pardoned by the Biden administration?
We’re screwed. The MSM are worse than useless, and I’m willing to bet many members of Congress, including Democrats, are in favor of this draconian law.
6 corrupt stooges on the Supreme Court are a serious part of the problem. Their declaring immunity for Trump is basically saying"Yes we have a king." That's possibly the most anti- American ruling ever.

GOP calling No Kings “hate America” rallies. How is this real? How has it gotten this bad?

My neighbor (also in St. Paul) is brown skinned did not attend the rally for that very reason. We stand for them!
I don’t blame them. We have to let them know this is NOT acceptable and we WILL stand up for freedom.
“If America has a king, it’s the national security state.”
Nailed it Ken.
Looks like DHS used the same gun picture for both the Elias Cepeda arrest (https://content.govdelivery.com/attachments/fancy_images/USDHS/2025/10/12490602/magazines_original.jpg) and the Robledo and Collins arrest (Lower image at https://pbs.twimg.com/media/G2CLMGQW0AACT6d?format=jpg&name=large). They really just seem to be phoning in these allegations.

Thank you Ken for reporting on this. We are in real trouble here. I hope we can find an effective way to stop this fascism.
Also they clubbed Kat Abu
“If you arrest me, you hit the pipe with Hunter and then he hit you with his pipe.”
Thanks for following up on how this is being used. Not likely to be covered in corporate media!

80,000 initial estimate in Portland. Lots of frogs!!!
