Summary

“No Kings” rallies have now been held across the United States, with many protests involving upwards of 2,000 to 3,000 people. Some of the protests turned violent, while others remained peaceful. The rallies overall have worked as a continuation of the anti-ICE protests and riots also spreading across the country.

In those riots in Los Angeles, a key Maoist tactic was at play called the “mass line,” where organizers generate a movement for political means and make it look like a grassroots movement.

Meanwhile, alongside the ongoing protests and riots, an assassin has killed a representative and her husband, and injured another official and their spouse.
