Jimmy Tingle on immigration at #NoKings #Boston: "40% of agricultural workers are undocumented - most of these people would make great citizens. Some of them are sneaking into this country... to work! That's like someone sneaking into your house to clean it!"

That's why this was the sign I made for the #NoKings #Boston protest last month.

Protest sign: "Using Jews as the excuse to attack people's Freedom (of speech / of association / right to due process / to travel ) is Antisemitism"

My favorite protest cat from #NoKings #Boston this weekend. A few more June 14th protest cats in thread - add yours if you photographed any!

People standing behind fence beside the road, woman holding a sign with a drawing of a cat on furniture knocking a glass of ice off the edge. "Nope" in big letters, over a rainbow background. Parts of some other signs visible.

Also saw the image from the @mass50501.bsky.social event listing on several signs #NoKings #Boston

Protest signs "No Kings But Yaaas Queen" with a drawing like the one on the Mass 50501 site's event listing for this event: Statue of Liberty figure with rainbow shawl knocking a crown off Trump's head.

Saw a lot of variations on this theme at the #NoKings + Pride march in #Boston. A few here.

Peole standing behind fence at side of road, holding signs. "America Has No King" with flag; "But it does have drag kinds" with wavy rainbow.

Protest sign "Queens not Kings" with drawings of a bee and a flower.

Back of man's shirt, white background, "no kings just queens". Hancock tower and another tall building in the background, behind trees and a US flag.

Woman with pink mask holding up hand-drawn sign "No Kings but Drag Kings"

I clicked on Twitter so you don't have to, this is real: "Hit a cop, you’re going to jail… doesn’t matter where you came from, how you got here, or what movement speaks to you" from the FBI director who works for the president who pardoned so many people who viciously attacked cops on Jan 6 #resist

Tombstone-like hangings on cemetery fence:
"Here lies Free Speech"
"Here lies Social Security"
"In memory of International Alliances"
"In memory of Cancer Research"
"Here lye thy Global Economy"
"In memory of Due Process"

Tombstone-like hangings on cemetery fence:
"In memory of Reproductive Rights"
"In memory of Climate Science"
"In memory of Trans Rights"
"Here lies Education for All"

Tricorner hats, you say? (photo from Boston #HandsOff, today)

Sidewalk, with three people in revolutionary era clothes, holding up fancy colorful sign "Patriots stand up to tyranny". One man in wheelchair with tricorner hat, holding sign "Concordians fighting tyranny since 1775"; one woman holding the big sign; another man in a tricorner hat. Iron fence behind them with Granary Burial Ground in the background; standing against the fence holding her sign "Immigrants aren't the problem, money hungry billionaires are."

5/5 After the #HandsOff protest in Boston, many people left their signs along the fence of the Granary, the cemetery where Paul Revere and Sam Adams are buried, as well as those killed in the Boston Massacre. I walked along and got pictures of many of the signs, though not all.

The official White House account literally posted an AI image of Trump wearing a crown with the words "long live the king". www.instagram.com/p/DGRDGQWxlhX/ An anti-American show of open hostility to the Constitution, which forbids titles of nobility, and the the founding idea of the US.

Instagram screenshot of post from whitehouse, image designed like a Time Magazine cover with image of Trump wearing a crown, NYC in the background, and "LONG LIVE THE KING" written below.

Ten years ago this month was the height of the snowmageddon in Boston. Pic from this week 10 years ago showing what all the sidewalks around here looked like - little canyons with a wall keeping you from crossing (or seeing) the street except where people dug walls in the sidewalk-fort at corners.
