On March 28, 8M+ people joined 3,300+ No Kings events across the U.S. and beyond.

More than 2/3 happened outside major cities.

People showed up everywhere—

I had once assumed that acquaintance, if not affection, might at least secure against judicial treachery of the more flamboyant variety. I was mistaken. As poets and smugglers have long known. Or, to put it with greater economy, curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal. #appellatesky

Screenshot from "South Park" episode in which a small gnome (in a pointy green hat) stands in front of a sign laying out their 3-step plan. "Phase 1" now reads "jail call excerpts" and Phase 3 reads "guilty guilty guilty!", but Phase 2 still is just a question mark.
