Friends don’t let friends protest alone

Me, right, with my friend Roberta.

The second No Kings protest against the Trump regime was held on Saturday, October 18, 2025. These are some of the photos I took of all the people I know who turned out for the event in Scottsbluff, Nebraska.

Why I protest

A photo of me I actually like. No Kings Protest in Scottsbluff, October 18, 2025. The guy with the Trump balloon took this photo of me.

It wasn’t until 2025 that I decided to protest. I’ve made the phone calls and sent the letters, but, over the last 15-20 years, all I get is a polite “fuck you” or no response at all. At today’s No King’s protest in Scottsbluff, I joined at least 300 people in an effort to try and effect some change.

My first protest

The wind picked up at the end of the No Kings protest, but it was still a good day and a good protest.

I’ve been to protests before, but it was always as a reporter. Today was the first time I attended a protest for myself.
