Colorado AG Phil Weiser (D) is calling on Coloradans to turn out en masse for Oct 18 demonstrations against President Trump’s use of the military in American cities. “Don’t be afraid,” Weiser said. “Don’t be afraid to show up.” #copolitics

NO KINGS is more than just a protest, it's a call to everyone around the nation to stand up and speak out against hate and violence.

Veterans deserve better, especially after they've put their lives on the line for our speech and our freedom. 1/2

The boiling frog scenario in our military: When does picking up trash become arresting American citizens? The slippery slope from normal deployment to authoritarianism happens in tiny steps most don't notice until it's too late.

Saw George Retes interviewed last night. Not only is he a disabled vet, but they detained him for THREE DAYS. An American /citizen and a vet. ICE is out of control.

Well - thanks to the Big Beautiful Bill and giving ICE a budget larger than the Marines (or so they say), Colorado gets to have some ICE facilities. Check out the locations - and check out the corporations while you are at it! Sad - so sad.

These veterans were arrested in D.C. for daring to ask why the Republican Party is ok cutting veterans benefits while funding El Taco Gordo’s $45M birthday parade. #VetsAgainstTrump #NoKings

Incredible. Hate removed this incredible assistance for Veterans.
The Hortman family helped raise and train dogs to partner with veterans. One of the many reasons we will miss Melissa and Mark.

An incredible video montage from #NoKings. For those of you too young to recognize the voice in the background: President John Kennedy giving his 1961 inaugural address. Listen - one of his most famous requests to Americans is at the end. We did this yesterday. Thx @kellyscaletta.bsky.social
I put together a montage of signs and scenes from the No King Protests. I was going to put it to music, but then I had a better idea.

Hope you enjoy it.

Now saying 12.1 million people stood up for America!!!! Love the song.

A must watch video. Not only does @meidastouch.com show why DC parade a failure but they show who the "corporate sponsors" were for OUR TAX PAID dictator parade for #taco's birthday parade. AND point out how #NoKings a stunning success. 14 Jun 2025 goes down in history!

THANK YOU @gabemuller.bsky.social. And we appreciate you coming to support America!
My thread for the photos I took during the Colorado Springs, CO #NoKings protest!

Not really in any order, it was a big, high energy gathering of peaceful protests!

I just enjoyed myself and took photos.

I'll add context as needed.

We would like to thank the Colorado Springs Police Department for their cooperation and assistance. Their presence was welcome and very lowkey. Although we may be wrong, there were no altercations between the peaceful demonstrators and the police or any observers. Again, Colorado Springs ROCKS!

It was a great #No.Kings Day in Colorado Springs. Opining between 9 and 12000 AMERICANS and that does NOT include all of the vehicles passing by non-stop on 4 lanes of traffic from 1130 ish to 3 ish --honking, waving, cheering, waving signs, cheering. Colorado Springs ROCKS! More info tomorrow.
Colorado Springs Showed up in a big way! Thanks to everyone who showed up!

Excellent reminder. No matter how low things may appear right now, our #NoKings protests all over the Country, and Colorado and in Colorado Springs will remain peaceful.
50501 Veterans remain committed to nonviolent protests and to maintaining all constitutional rights, including to peacefully assemble under the First Amendment.
