  • Wartime Protests in Ukraine Target Zelensky for the First Time

    NY Times ^ | July 22, 2025 | Marc Santora
    Thousands of people gathered in the streets of Kyiv, Ukraine, on Tuesday night to protest moves by President Volodymyr Zelensky’s government to weaken anticorruption institutions, in the country’s first major antigovernment demonstration in 3½ years of war. The protest outside the president’s office in central Kyiv, including civilians and soldiers, was the most significant fracture so far in the national unity that has helped Ukraine survive a grueling and bloody fight against a Russian invasion. The government did not immediately make a statement on the gathering. “My husband is in the trenches and this is not what they are fighting...

    Adam Swart, the CEO of Crowds on Demand, a company known for organising paid demonstrators, claims he was offered $20 million to recruit demonstrators for Thursday’s anti-Trump protests. Notably, tens of thousands of individuals nationwide are gearing up for the ‘Good Trouble Lives On’ protests honouring civil rights icon and longtime Congressman John Lewis. Axios says the Democratic Georgia lawmaker was one of Donald Trump's most vocal critics in his first term in the Oval Office and was one of the few members of Congress who decided not to attend his inauguration, the first one Lewis ever missed in his...

    Rep. Ilhan Omar’s (D-Minn.) daughter revealed Tuesday that she’s unemployed after graduating from Barnard College — the elite school that suspended her last year after her arrest at a Columbia University anti-Israel protest. “Unemployment got me,” Isra Hirsi captioned an Instagram Story selfie. The 22-year-old jobless activist is apparently getting by peddling some of her old clothes to her more than 82,000 followers on the social media platform. “I am now selling on [Depop]!! Check out if u wish,” Hirsi wrote, including a link to her page on the clothing resale app. Multiple skirts, a pair of Dr. Martens boots...

    LONDON (AP) — More than 20 people were arrested Saturday on suspicion of terrorism offenses after protesters gathered in central London in support of Palestine Action. The protest in Parliament Square came hours after the pro-Palestinian activist group was banned in Britain under anti-terrorism laws. A small group of protesters stood beneath a statue of Mahatma Gandhi and held placards reading, “I oppose genocide. I support Palestine Action.” Police surrounded them and several people were taken away. One woman seen lying on the ground in handcuffs was carried by officers to a police van. “Palestine Action is a proscribed group...
  • How people are celebrating, protesting and traveling for July Fourth

    **SNIP** California celebrations cancelled Several communities in the Los Angeles area have cancelled Independence Day festivities due to safety concerns over Trump administration’s immigration crackdown. The raids have triggered weeks of protests across the city and led Trump to deploy National Guard troops and Marines. The Los Angeles neighborhood of El Sereno cancelled its parade after 90% of participants dropped out. Organizer Genny Guerrero said the majority Latino community is “very patriotic.” But many people are avoiding events out of fear of immigration agents. “The fact that they’re taking anyone that is brown, regardless of citizenship, that puts everyone in...

    Anti-Israel protester Mahmoud Khalil lamented leaving behind some “incredible men” on Friday as he left a Louisiana detention facility, which he hopes becomes a museum to what he described as “America’s racist policies.” “I leave some incredible men behind me, over 1,000 people behind me, in a place where they shouldn’t have been in the first place,” Khalil told reporters after walking out of the La Salle Detention Facility in Jena, La. “I hope the next time that I will be in Jena is to actually visit this as a museum on America’s racist policies against immigrants,” the former Columbia...

    California Gov. Gavin Newsom threw on a pair of sunglasses and sipped wine at a ritzy charity event at his sun-drenched vineyard earlier this month – just as chaotic, anti-ICE protests kicked off in Los Angeles. The luxe event dubbed “Vineyard Vibes” was held at the Odette Estate Winery in Napa Valley to raise money for the PlumpJack Foundation, founded by Newsom’s sister, on the afternoon of June 7. One witness was appalled that the Democrat was casually enjoying a glass of vino in a V-neck T-shirt and baseball cap the day after his City of Angels started spiraling into...
  • What did Americans think of ‘No Kings’ protests? Here’s what a poll found

    Americans are divided over the “No Kings” protests, which were held across the country on Saturday, according to new polling. The demonstrations — which coincided with President Donald Trump’s 79th birthday and the U.S. Army’s 250th anniversary parade in Washington, D.C. — were a response to what organizers called the president’s authoritarian actions. About 2,100 individual protests were held, which, in total, were attended by around 5 million people, according to an estimate from the American Civil Liberties Union, which helped organize the demonstrations. “Today’s protests are a resounding message that people across the nation will not be intimidated by...

    Hours after thousands of people flocked to downtown Los Angeles for a day of demonstrations, the scene took a turn from peaceful to violent as rising unrest spurred police to deploy tear gas. "The demonstration has taken the street. A DISPERSAL ORDER has been issued for all persons located on Alameda south of Aliso and North of Temple to immediately leave the area," LAPD wrote in a warning on X. "People in the crowd are throwing rocks, bricks, bottles and other objects. Less lethal has been approved. Less lethal may cause discomfort and pain. It is advised that all persons...

    CBS News is currently facing backlash on social media after they posted what appeared to be an advertisement for “No Kings Day” protest merchandise to X on Friday, with users slamming the outlet for pushing the anti-Trump goods on the eve of a large-scale political protest. Thousands of people are expected to rally in hundreds of cities across America on Saturday to protest the Trump administration and counter the president’s military parade in Washington, D.C. to mark the Army’s 250th birthday. Today is also Flag Day, which commemorates the adoption of the U.S. flag on June 14, 1777. The counter-protesters...
