80,000 San Diego protesters marched on June 14th!!!!! [View all]

Yesterday they said 60,000. Sat they said 40,000. Fri they said maybe 10,000 would show up.

There were 40,000 at the 2017 Women's March in San Diego and this was easily 50% larger than that.

Do NOT believe the MSM when it comes to reporting FACTS and actually does the math correctly.

They also said yesterday that 5 million marched across the US. Today they say it was 11 million.

My point is that you can NOT rely on facts and coverage of liberal events from the MSM unless violence is involved. They are greedy, corporate millionaire traitors who are happily OWNED by the GOP.

The numbers I just reported will increase over the next few days. When a small mid-western town of 800 residents has 400 protesters you know this protest, easily the largest in US history, will increase when they get their calculators out.

I said on DU on May 28th that there were over 1,000 NO KINGS protests planned. I followed the numbers for 3 weeks and kept track. I increased those numbers over the last 3 weeks in my posts here on DU.

NO KINGS was my 30th protest in San Diego (28 were between 2016 and 2020) and I am pretty experienced at estimating crowd sizes. Too bad the "professional number counters" the MSM uses are about as accurate as my 1st grade students' math skills. Actually, my 1st graders were better at it. Maybe it is due to the fact that my students didn't have an agenda tied to $$$$$$$$$.

CNN and the NYTimes ghosted the whole protest until violence was linked to it by the MAGATS in 2 cities out of over 2,700+ cities. No surprises here!
