From the Semaphore article: One of the companies, Instant Pot Brands, noted that “a portion of the profits from” its forthcoming collection “will be donated to the Trump Presidential Library.” Instant Pot, which makes kitchen and home appliances, said in its release that it will offer a “45/47 Collaboration,” including various items branded with those numbers and Trump’s “Make America Great Again” tagline.

I wasn't sure it was the right choice at first, but I now realize it was brilliant.

I've been feeling sad about how I wasn't able to show up to the No Kings protest on Saturday, so I've been brainstorming small ways to protest for now until the next one. I made some sticky notes that I'm going to put up in my small Trump-loving town in places that people will most likely see them. It's Leviticus 19:33-34. So far I got one up on a gas pump from when I got gas today. I actually taped it on there because the sticky stuff on sticky notes aren't sticky enough lol. Is this a form of vandalism? I hope not. The cops won't come for me, right? ....right? Anyways, let me know if you think this is a good idea or not, and if you have ideas for other things I can write!

Yes, you read that right. 6/11/25 I was protesting outside our local ICE facility in Spokane, WA. We were blocking a transport vehicle attempting to transport 2 detainees to the larger state facility in Tacoma Wa. They entered the US legally through asylum seeking. The 2 peoples in question had made all their appointments, had jobs paid taxes etc. 37 peoples in total were arrested. I was charged with local law “failure to disperse”. Most people were charged with that, except for 2 others were charged with false imprisonment. All of our phones were confiscated and we were told our phones would be off site at county property upon our release. When I and several others went to pick up our phones, we were told they had been turned over to the FBI. The agents number we were given went straight to voicemail and calls have not been returned to my lawyer or myself.

Don’t bring your phone to protests! Even with passwords and Face ID, the feds can easily get into your phone. They won’t find anything on my phone, no pics or videos of protesters that are incriminating. Just a bunch of photos of my cats. Still, I feel like my privacy has been gravely violated.

It’s honestly getting harder not to feel angrier by the day watching the blatant and/or willful ignorance from so many Trump supporters. A lot of them genuinely have no idea what we’re actually fighting for. Even some seemingly well-meaning folks don’t fully get it.

Lately, I’ve seen people mocking the “No Kings” messaging, acting like it’s been made out of nowhere. One comment today said “what’s the next march going to be? “No Dukes? No Queens?” Meanwhile, Trump has literally called himself a king more than once and others in his orbit have done the same. The fact that they don’t even realize that just shows how deep the disconnect is.

It’s frustrating because their ignorance kind of undercuts much we’re trying to stand for, especially in terms of getting those who are on the fence to truly understand. Is there any hope to actually get through to some of them? I try not to let myself become more hateful at the stupidity each day but damn, it’s hard!

Amazing job by the organizers of this! Some good, connected news is that the largest protest was Earth Day in 1970, and that effected positive change in the U.S., including the creation of the Clean Water Act and Clean Air Act. It would be hard to argue that those two pieces of legislation weren't a good thing for most Americans. That's good company to be in. When people show up, positive change can result. When more people show up, the more likely for positive change.

It is noteworthy that I haven't seen a single major news/media outlet call out the statistical significance of Saturday's protests. Perhaps they're waiting for more official numbers from the Crowd Counting Consortium? Doubt it. C'mon journalists!!!

*the referenced article suggests the No Kings protest could be the largest single day protest in U.S. history, but this doesn't account for Earth Day in 1970.

Armed forces dog-piled a non-violent protester. Her latest TikTok says that he's being held federally right now.

With all the nonsense and lies about violence and property damage being spewed by Fox News and conservative pundits, I truly appreciate the Seattle PD putting this message out early in the day.

He treated them like the "suckers and losers" he's called them.

Millions of Americans took to the streets around the country. Unarmed. Peaceful. A big tent that mobilized lots of different people.

Meanwhile the army looked pathetic surrounded by tanks and robot dogs. They had to march for an old man's birthday who felt the need to lie about what the march was for. He tried to goad protesters to come because he couldn't get any crowds.

Shout out to the organizers yesterday who had some really smart ideas like not protesting the parade and switching to the "no kings" slogan from being against "oligarchy".

Keep organizing and keep at it.
