Feedback sent to the @nytimes.com

“Covering the content not the count” of the No Kings protests is nonsense.

The number of people protesting is a fundamental dimension of a mass protest. And it is a critical dimension of the “who” in the most basic “who what where when why how” of journalism.

Make no mistake. The #ConstitutionalCrisis occured on July 1, 2025, when the #SCROTUS invented presidential immunity, out of thin air, to benefit the already-convicted felon.

#AmericanFascism on the march, continuously widening the pool of victims to ‘other’ and abuse.

“Memo says those subjected to civil proceedings are not entitled to an attorney like they are in criminal cases”

While #SCROTUS obfuscates & facilitates.

“Look,” Trump said. “We were losing hundreds of billions of dollars with China. Now we’re essentially not doing business with China. Therefore, we’re saving hundreds of billions of dollars. Very simple.”
