19 years ago I covered my first protest against anti-immigrant policies in Los Angeles, as a freelancer making YouTube videos. the great Gary Leonard found this photo he took from that day — May 1, 2007.
No Kings Day organizers say *8 million* people came out to protest Trump on Saturday, a movement that continues to grow as I discussed recently on @talkeasypod.bsky.social.
and check out the (cringey) video I dug up of my reporting (and haircut).
