| 0:00.0 | Hey, it's Will Salatan from The Bullwork. So we just had another no king's protest. It's the third one. |
| 0:07.5 | And millions, millions of people came out. And what I want to show you today is why this is so important. |
| 0:13.8 | It's because as this is happening, as this movement, this no king's movement is growing. |
