I am so proud to have guided master artist Rebecca Lee Kunz through her debut as the illustrator of Andrea Rogerβsβ story βChooch Helped.β It won her the Caldecott Medal! BRAVA Rebecca!!!
What bittersweet enlightenment!
Dear Tessa Hulls: I just completed your beautiful Pulitzer Prize-winning memoir, "FEEDING GHOSTS." It took me awhile, it was that harrowing! Thank you for raising vital issues to consider over the next several months. What a gift!
A Father's Day salute to my Dad, who served our country proudly during WW2, and made huge sacrifices to insure the safety of our family for generations. This was a studio shot, taken for Mom to keep with her, from their dating days π₯°.
HUZZAH! See the brilliant crowds, from sea to shining sea!

Guy at my rally: βcomparing DT to a king makes me feel bad for KINGS. At least kings can project some β¨MAJESTYβ¨ - has anyone ever seen majesty out of this guy?β π #NOKINGS
No Kings. Place De la Bastille Paris
Minnesota will not be terrorized.
The one thing to take away from today: there are more of us than there are of them. Solidarity makes us stronger.
A few hundred Americans of all ages standing in dappled sun with flags and signs
Hello from Berlin where a few hundred Americans are outside the embassy, currently reading aloud from the Declaration of Independence. #nokings
NEW: Democracy is alive in Philly!
Amazing scenes in Philadelphia as thousands hit the streets for the anti-Trump protest.

Protest signs held high at a rally today. The central one is hand-letterd, saying "Melissa Hortman Loved Democracy, and So Do I"
This is heartbreaking.
(via someone at the St. Paul rally)
Shortly after the Atlanta #nokings event kicked off at 10, organizers said Liberty Plaza near the state Capitol had already reached maximum capacity of 5,000.

Chicago #NoKings
Philly showin' up today
The #MendocinoCoast communities: Fort Bragg, Mendocino, Caspar, Cleone, Albion (12k pop total) have showed up *massively* today to say at 3000+ here - canβt capture them all! #NoKings @maddow.msnbc.com @50501movement.bsky.social @ezralevin.bsky.social
UPDATE: The coalition of organizations behind the protests say the parade is being fueled by Trump's ego. The parade, which is not formally linked to Trump, will mark the 250th anniversary of the U.S. Army.
There are nearly 100,000 people at the rally in Philadelphia. #NoKings
Marching past Trump Tower Chicago. Itβs hard to show from ground level how huge this crowd is. The βNo Kingsβ protesters keep coming.
Look at downtown LA right now
A sign at a protest reads βyou lostβ next to a Confederate flag, βyou lostβ next to a Nazi flag, and βyouβre nextβ next to a MAGA hat.
Letβs not mince words on exactly what the MAGA movement is.
Trumpβs provocations have turned Angelenos into pedestrians
Pussy Riot on the steps of City Hall in Downtown Los Angeles, unfurling a banner that says ITβS BEGINNING TO LOOK A LOT LIKE RUSSIA. #NoKings

Gathered at City Hall.
Protester dressed as Trump wearing undies and holding a sign reading Racist. There was a fun drive by with this one and a sun roof.
Small town protests matter. About 1500 in Issaquah, WA in a lively showing.
I love you Seattle. #abolishice #nokings
To all of you decent Americans, Thank You for the glorious, peaceful, and amazing protests today. You are making all of our voices, even the voiceless, heard. Bless You!
It really says something that Minnesota still showed out like this even with their lives under threat, with a politically motivated killer who reportedly had materials relates to this event in his vehicle.
Incredible state and incredible people.
