The “No Kings” protests weren’t just filled with powerful signs — they had some unforgettable costumes, too. A standout moment: Donald Trump, JD Vance, Kristi Noem, and Stephen Miller portrayed as convicts in shackles.

JUST IN: Judge Sooknanan ordered the government to file a status report by 4 pm to address whether the children have been deplaned.
DOJ blew the deadline.
Now she orders them to show cause why they didn’t file the report in time — and sets new 6:30 pm deadline.
