[quote=Anonymous][b]No Kings protests erupt nationwide, drawing nearly 7 million people, organizers say—2 million more than June.[/b]
“Protesters from Los Angeles to New York — including in Chicago, Washington, D.C., and Austin, Texas — flooded into streets chanting, marching and waving homemade signs, including some that proclaimed “We want all of the government to work” and “Make America Good Again.”
Organizers said nearly 7 million people turned out Saturday to more than 2,700 No Kings protests across the U.S. — 2 million more than at the previous round of rallies in June.”

[b]Republicans mostly silent as millions of Americans protest Trump on No Kings day—say nothing re frogs![/b]
“Republican voices were mostly silent as No Kings rallies and marches against Trump administration policies unfurled on Saturday, many in the spirit of a street party that countered the “hate America” depiction advanced by senior members of the party.

Instead of provocation, there were marching bands, huge banners with “we the people” references to the US constitution, and protesters wearing inflatable costumes, particularly frogs, which have emerged as a sign of resistance.”

[b]Frogs, Axolotls, and a Hippo Take Manhattan to Deflate Trump’s “Antifa” Slur.[/b]
“A joyous, mocking menagerie of frogs, axolotls, and at least one giant pink hippo made its way down Seventh Avenue in Manhattan on Saturday, alongside thousands of others, in a defiant protest that formed part of the nationwide “No Kings” rallies.”

“I tried to get a Portland frog outfit and they were sold out until November!”

[b]It took maybe about five minutes among this solidly liberal, “protest the right way” No Kings crowd in DC to completely shatter the Republican facade.[/b]
“These were retirees, public school teachers, college students, and quite a few former government workers who’d been fired or took the buy out in the DOGE culling. 
…

“It’s obvious that Republican proselytizing and fearmongering about violence and agitators at this rally was strategic, but it’s even more obvious that it was a piss poor strategy. You can’t plug your ears and yell “antifa” while hundreds of thousands of Americans march through the streets. It’s laughable that an event co-signed by former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and former Vice President Kamala Harris would even serve as a sleeper cell for antifa, and yet Republicans told that lie over, and over, and over again, even as their policies—and their president—become increasingly less popular.

“It’s the ultimate gaslighting of America that this administration is trying to pull. Antifa are the people he doesn’t like,” Epps told me. “It’s gaslighting, and it’s coming from the absolute highest levels of U.S. government.”
