Over 8 million protestors at No Kings Rallies today, the largest single day protest in American history.

An estimated 7 million people participated in the rally in October.

"What struck me most wasn’t just the anger. It was how many people told me this was their first protest.

What I saw in Weehawken, NJ - first-time protesters marching alongside veteran protestors, a mayor walking his own streets, state legislators showing up on a Saturday, and organizers who a year ago had never run a rally now building a real grassroots movement.

It’s called democracy, and metaphorically, it’s now playing at a theater near you."

@AkaSci @indivisibleteam That’s 2.3% of the US population; well on their way to the 3.5% to really speed things up.

@AkaSci ️ And NoKings Protests have to extend to the whole world as the far-right is spreading everywhere.

I'm sure that the American people know how to get rid of an unwanted president in office... one way or another.

@AkaSci

She understood the assignment. She's always smiling in these pix. Not as powerful maybe as "Taking a Stand in Baton Rouge," but definitely makes the cops look like idiots.

@AkaSci that picture tells everything wrong happening now

"More than 70 protesters were arrested Saturday evening after authorities shot tear gas and pepper balls into the crowd, leaving at least one teen with an eye wound and others with skin burns, according to demonstrators and police."

Through it all, Lady Liberty kept her cool and displayed her warm smile.
