Contra Costa – And The Nation – Take To The Streets For No Kings III
Everywhere I hear the sound
Of marching, charging feet, boy
‘Cause summer’s here and the time is right
For marching in the street, boy…
Words from a little ditty in 1968, courtesy of Mssrs. Richards and Jagger, which seemed appropriate today.

The first 84 renditions of this were just a warm up, this one is for real. Once Trump sees everyone in the streets, he will have no choice but to resign!
Hey remember when Biden declared a constitutional amendment by tweet, and the No Kings reaction was “Meh, if the president says so, it’s so”?
Where are the young people?
Pleasant Hill had a good sized, pretty diverse crowd (all things considered).
Glad to see folks out expressing themselves.
You bet… lots of photos on our Facebook.
I agree, there should be NO King Newsom!
( we all know he considers himself a king already and he wants to be the king over the rest of the country and world )
Greg last I heard Newsom was not plastering his name all over historic CA buildings..nor trying to scam us with bitcoin and bibles.
Where are the No Mullahs rallies in Iran? Nowhere.
The existence of rallies refutes their premise.
Very few people advocate monarchy. Yet in every presidential campaign both parties speak as if their candidate was running for King. As if Congress did not exist. And the voters seem to believe the same thing! No wonder the Executive Branch keeps taking power from the Legislative Branch.
Sadly, most people, in my opinion including most of the demonstrators, are NOT opposed to a King. They merely want their preferred King. Nobody is arguing for Congress to take back its power from the Executive. Which, to me, is the only way back to democracy.
Citizens United ==> $corrupted congress.
There is no retreat on the horizon.
