"Speaker Johnson, it looks as though the president is currently stabbing you with a knife. Do you have any comment?"

"Well, look, this is the first I'm hearing about it. As you know, I've been really busy not doing my job, so I just don't know enough about this alleged stabbing to make a comment."

Wow, peaceful protest all over the country. It's almost as if we aren't actually terrorists or America-haters. 🤔 #NoKings #NoKingsPlainfieldsAreaIndivisible

Yeah, that's not a "mandate." More people didn't vote for Trump than did. #NoKings #NoKingsPlainfieldAreaIndivisible

A number of peaceful protesters today were, um, not impressed with the talents of our current federal government. #NoKings #NoKingsPlainfieldsAreaIndivisible

"Imagine being scared of diversity but not dictatorship." "Stop pretending your racism is patriotic." Along Route 22 in North Plainfield, NJ. #NoKings #NoKingsPlainfieldAreaIndivisible

We had today about twice the number of people as we had in June. As I roved around taking pictures, I often heard some form of "I can't believe what's happening to our country. And not enough people see it, not enough understand." #NoKings #NoKingsPlainfieldsAreaIndivisible

"Democracy doesn't fear protest. Dictators do." #NoKings #NoKingsPlainfieldsAreaIndivisible

Children ARE listening to the hate that's being spread by certain politicians and members of government. Fortunately, some of them are wise enough to reject it. #NoKings #NoKingsPlainfieldsAreaIndivisible

Possibly my favorite sign of the day -- just "Trump," crossed out. If only it were that easy! #NoKings #NoKingsPlainfieldsAreaIndivisible

As I was taking pictures today, the most common thing I heard was: "I had to do something -- we HAVE to do something. Can't people see what's happening to our country?!" #NoKings #NoKingsPlainfieldsAreaIndivisible

Thank you Plainfields Area Indivisible for organizing our local No Kings II rally. About 600 people came together in a peaceful, joyous assembly that nonetheless made it clear we have no patience with kings, dictators, fascists, authoritarians, and liars. #NoKings #NoKingsPlainfieldsAreaIndivisible
