Philadelphia was really big.

Philadelphia had been the flagship protest at an earlier No Kings, but look at how many people turned out in Philly for this one.

San Diego was really big.

Look at that lower right.

Look how many people in San Diego.

Washington, D.C.

is lower left there.

That was big.

In D.C., some people from the No Kings protest marched to a military base where Trump administration officials, Trump cabinet officials, have been taking over military housing for themselves.

So people at No Kings in D.C.

made some noise there this weekend, reminding those folks in Trump's cabinet that even though they have looted those houses for themselves from the military, those are not their houses.

Upper left, you're looking at New York City.

The crowd was so large in New York City this weekend, even the New York Times had to begrudgingly concede that the New York City protest stretched for more than a mile on either side of Times Square.

But again, it's not just that there were some really large protests and that the collective number of people protesting was one of the largest protests in American history ever.

It's also the sheer number of places in which Americans were willing to turn out.

So like in New York, for example, yes, there was that massive protest in New York City, but you know what?

There were 150 No Kings protests

all over New York State.

I mean, here, just as a sampling, here's Albany in the lower right and Rochester in the lower left and Plattsburgh in the upper right and Buffalo, New York.

In the great state of Georgia, there was a huge protest and march in Atlanta, which you might expect, but would you expect that there'd be 62 different No Kings protests all over the state of Georgia?
