The second No Kings Day protests, on Saturday, saw around seven million people in more than 2,600 areas right across the USA, marching, listening to speakers, carrying placards, and generally making it clear that they want a democracy – not a monarchy.
Good morning and Happy Sunday to everyone who was THRILLED to see 7 million people participate peacefully in No Kings protests: not just in Blue states, but in red states, and all over the world!
A complete rejection of trump’s fascism.

The official response thoroughly refuted any accusations that the President of the USA has been acting like an autonomous ruler, rather than the elected head of a democratic nation. Oh, wait …that’s not what it did.
The vice president, newly on Bluesky, posted this.
BREAKING: JD Vance just posted this on Bluesky.
Do they have any idea how f*cking weird and pathetic we think they are?

The White House added some extra racism.
We’re built different.

Trump, however, went further. Much further.
Trump posts AI video showing him literally dumping shit on America pic.twitter.com/qZ2ZC6s8EW

What’s this right-wing obsession with cringeworthy AI clips? The only identifiable protester in the video, Democratic commentator Harry Sisson, understandably had questions.
Can a reporter please ask Trump why he posted an AI video of himself dropping poop on me from a fighter jet? That would be great thanks

Of course, he wasn’t the only one to object. The online reaction included some that are NSFW.

Trump posting a video of himself literally shitting on America is pretty spot on to be honest

Hey quick question… is this a normal thing for the president of the United States to post? pic.twitter.com/KG5tvaFca7

We don’t need a fake video to know he’s dumping shit on America, we see it every day for real.

That Trump and MAGA think this is an appropriate response to #NoKings is precisely why it was held https://t.co/rZKHrc5REI

Y’all are acting like you’ve never seen a 79 year-old drug addict post AI vids wearing a crown flying a fighter jet dropping sh*t on US citizens at a rally the same week he bitched out the world for not getting Nobel Peace prize & blew up boats so he could joke about it before.

King Trump taking a shit on America is certainly a message. https://t.co/lUwIP6Xf7k

Well. The president is posting more insane AI videos while his shutdown heads into week 4. And 24 million Americans are about to see their health care premiums double or triple.
He is unhinged beyond comprehension. https://t.co/P4eZ0o9Aco

But seriously why would the President post an image on the Internet of airdropping feces on American cities? https://t.co/HFrJIFZaCg

I’m old enough to remember when suggesting that some of your opponent’s supporters were “deplorable” was an unforgivably offensive gaffe.
Now the president is pretending to pour shit on the half of America who didn’t vote for him. https://t.co/WC3kfWhlFy

Trump posts online vid of him as The King dumping liquid shit on the NO MORE KINGS marchers
MAGA: it’s just dank banter. Where’s your sense of humour???
17yo kid posts dank banter about Charlie Kirk online
MAGA: He is pure evil, destroy him, his family & all who know him.
