The "No Kings" protest against President Donald Trump and his administration is set to be the largest nationwide mobilization since Trump took office, according to organizers. There are 1,800 protests planned across the country for June 14, with millions expected to attend. The protests have been organized to coincide with Trump's birthday and the 250th birthday of the U.S. Army, which the administration plans to commemorate with a tank parade through Washington, D.C.

California Gov. Gavin Newsomâs office is attempting to mock President Donald Trumpâs characterization of Los Angeles as âoccupiedâ by illegal immigrants, using artificial intelligence and the voice of a âStar Warsâ villain. In a video Newsomâs office posted on X Tuesday morning, the voice of Emperor Palpatine recites a recent Trump post on Truth Social, accompanied by footage of marching Stormtroopers. âA once great American city, Los Angeles, has been invaded and occupied by illegal aliens and criminals,â the sneering voice says, reminiscent of the emperorâs evil monologues from the film franchise. âNow, violent, insurrectionist mobs are swarming and attacking

Democratic National Committee Chair Ken Martin said he considered stepping down from his post amid mounting internal turmoil caused by DNC Vice Chair David Hoggâs vow to primary members of the party. (Snip) Martin, who was elected to his seat earlier this year, said the infighting had left him demoralized and struggling to handle his job. âIâll be very honest with you, for the first time in my 100 days on this job,â Martin said with a lengthy pause. âThe other night I said to myself, I donât know if I wanna do this anymore.â Martin said in the recording
The Democratic Party has reached an all-time low in popularity in the latest national NBC News poll, as it searches for a path forward after a painful loss to President Donald Trump â and as the partyâs voters spoil for a fight between their leaders in Washington and Trump. Just over a quarter of registered voters (27%) say they have positive views of the party, which is the partyâs lowest positive rating in NBC News polling dating back to 1990. Just 7% say those views are âveryâ positive. âWith these numbers, the Democratic Party is not in need of a
Olympian gymnast Simone Biles on Friday night clashed with conservative activist Riley Gaines over a transgender athleteâs participation on a Minnesota high schoolâs softball team.

SACRAMENTO, Calif. â California lawmakers this week advanced several efforts aimed at reining in utility profits and slashing electricity bills as part of their agenda to tackle the sky-high costs of living. The proposals would make sweeping changes to how utilities fund expensive infrastructure projects like putting power lines underground to guard against wildfires. They also would add more oversight around wildfire mitigation spending and put new requirements on utility requests to increase rates. Supporters said the goal is to make the big investor-owned utilities start sharing some of the costs to fight wildfires and build new transmission infrastructure. âThis
More details about the Boulder Pearl Street Mall suspect, 45-year-old Mohamed Sabry Soliman, are surfacing days after the attack. Soliman, who lived in El Paso County, entered the U.S. in August 2022 on a B-2 tourist visa, according to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). The visa is used for foreign touristsâ visits to the U.S. DHS further confirmed that the visa expired in February 2023. (Snip) On Monday, June 2, Congressman Jeff Crank reported that Soliman had received a Colorado-issued driverâs license in July 2024, a year after his visa had expired. âInstead of turning him over to ICE

"The city issues a statement," Elise â who is Jewish â said. "Taisha Adams, the only city council member who didn't sign it." Elise said it's not the first time she's been upset with Adams, who she said has posted "antisemitic" comments on her social media. Denver7 reached out to Adams to ask why she didn't sign the letter.

MINNEAPOLIS -- Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz will seek to energize activists at Democratic state conventions in South Carolina and California on Saturday, as the party's 2024 vice presidential nominee works to keep up the high national profile he gained when Kamala Harris selected him as her running mate. Walz, a former schoolteacher who went to Congress and then became his stateâs governor, will keynote the South Carolina gathering in Columbia, traditionally a showcase for national-level Democrats and White House hopefuls. Another leader who often appears on those lists, Maryland Gov. Wes Moore, spoke Friday night at the partyâs fundraising dinner.

Marthaâs Vineyard residents are unhappy with the Trump administration deporting illegal immigrants from their liberal enclave, The Washington Post reported this week.
The community has been reeling since Immigrations and Customs Enforcement officers arrested dozens of illegal immigrants in a recent raid, according to the report.
"Itâs bullying," one Marthaâs Vineyard resident, Charlie Giordano, told the Post. "I donât know how many are illegal or legal, I donât give a s---. But I do care about how theyâre treated.
While it looked like law enforcement came out in force on Monday night to help deal with the rioting in Los Angeles, Fox News reported something interesting happening earlier that evening.
Fox's Bill Melugin reported how "hundreds" showed up out of nowhere, some with foreign flags. Then they reported that people were being given earplugs, gas masks, and water bottles, not to drink but to toss at the cops. Melugin also said people were communicating by radio to let others know where the police movements were. But this was perhaps the most intriguing moment, from the local Fox affiliate: the video of the truck pulling up, just giving

CDC Vaccine Advisory Panel in Stunning

U.S. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has abruptly dismissed all 17 members of the Centers for Disease Control and Preventionâs Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP)âthe federal body that shapes Americaâs vaccine policy.
In a blistering opâed published Monday in The Wall Street Journal, RFK Jr. declared the panel âplagued with persistent conflicts of interestâ and branding the current members as a shadowy cabal heavily influenced by pharmaceutical money.
[snip]
It can be recalled that the âunsafe and ineffectiveâ COVID-19 vaccine was formally added to the routine immunization schedule for both children and adolescents by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) on Thursday.
If youâre the media, you call it a âmostly peaceful protest.â Normal people might call it an âinsurrection.â
But âinsurrectionâ is not quite right, either. âInsurrectionâ implies a violent revolt against the government by its own citizens, not violence by uninvited foreigners who refuse to leave.
I suppose you could call it a riot, but when its foreigners claiming ownership of the land, itâs a bit more than that.
So, the question remains: What do you call it when foreigners:
illegally enter the country,
refuse our requests that they leave,
assert ownership over the land,
attack our people, places and government,
under the colors of their foreign flag while burning the American flag,
"No Kings" rallies will be held in cities across the country to protest President Donald Trump and his policies on his birthday, June 14. The 50501 Movement (50 protests, 50 states, one movement) and other groups are protesting a military parade scheduled to take place in the nation's capital on June 14, coinciding with Trump's 79th birthday, the U.S. Army's 250th anniversary, and Flag Day. Multiple protests are being held in various cities in each state, but no events are being planned for Washington, D.C. Organizers say that a major march and rally will take place in Philadelphia
CLAIM: âOn January 6thâŚwe begged the President of the United States to send in the National Guard. He would not do it.â
VERDICT: FALSE. Trump offered the National Guard ahead of time, but Democrats refused.
Former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) claimed Tuesday in a news conference on Capitol Hill that President Trump refused to send the National Guard to protect the Capitol from rioters on January 6, 2021.
Her point was to contrast Trumpâs supposed refusal to protect the Capitol with his apparent enthusiasm for federalizing the California National Guard in recent days to quell left-wing riots in Los Angeles, California.
She made her remarks among other California Democrats,

Letâs talk about a day that California Governor Gavin Newsom would probably like to erase from memory. Tuesday was an absolute trainwreck for the Golden Stateâs fearless leader, marked by technical blunders, shameless begging, and a string of outright lies that would make even the most seasoned politician blush. If you thought Newsomâs leadership couldnât sink any lower, buckle up, because this was a masterclass in humiliation.
Riots are tearing through the city over federal immigration enforcement, yet Newsom canât even bring himself to condemn the violence. Instead, heâs pointing fingers at President Trump while dodging
California Congresswoman Maxine Waters has insisted the ongoing riots in Los Angeles are peaceful.
Far-left protesters, criminal opportunists and immigrant activists have descended on the streets of Los Angeles over the past few days in an effort to push back against President Trumpâs efforts to deport the millions of people who are illegally residing across the country.
Speaking at a press conference on Tuesday, Waters argued that there was âno violenceâ in any of the protests, despite video evidence to the contrary.
âEven those who were out of step with what we are advocating, peaceful protest, did not create any violence,â Waters said.
âNobody was shot. Nobody was killed. Get it in your head.â
