New in PN: No Kings was a huge success. Just look at Trump's response.
"Calling this movement 'No Kings' turns out to have been a stroke of genius, because Trump’s response was to essentially say *Yeah, I’m the king — and because I’m the king, I can poop on people!*"

“No Kings” protests were about as wholesome as you could imagine. But that hasn’t stopped top Republicans from thoroughly melting down over its success.
Case in point: President Trump posted an AI video of himself wearing a crown and dropping raw sewage on protesters from a military plane..

We are honoring #AmazonCrimeDay by supporting a movement to boycott it.
Amazon’s profits are built on worker injuries, union busting, and surveillance—and we’re done rewarding their exploitation.

I know it’s tempting to roll our eyes whenever celebrities ‘take a stand’ or do activism - see Gal Gadot’s Imagine video - but the fact is, this is more of a stand than most of Congress is willing to take. It’s easy to mock, but more prominent should be doing this

Just a year ago, that was illegal in the United States and now it’s commonplace.
