Hundreds turned out in Denton and Fort Worth for ‘No Kings’ protests showing support for protecting democracy and immigrant rights. Protests continued across North Texas in Denton and Fort Worth Saturday morning. Upwards of 1,000 people gathered in both cities, joining others pushing back against a perceived overstep of presidential power. In Denton’s Downtown Square, the scene looked much like other cities and towns across the United States; separated by municipalities but united by common beliefs. “If you look around this square, Black, white, brown, Hispanic, gays, straight, Christian, non-Christian, that is what our country what it is,” said protester Julian Carter.

A diverse crowd of all ages, from children to older folks, appeared in downtown Denton late Saturday morning. They held signs and cheered at speakers and passersby who circled the Courthouse on the Square and honked in support. Some gathered around a drum circle. Others jammed with guitars, a ukulele, violins and a cello while people walked around the Square with their signs, offering reminders such as “Free Palestine.”

People fell into several chants that included: “We're here. We're queer. We won't be ruled by fear.” “‘The Constitution is under attack!" "Stand up, fight back!’” Thousands of North Texans on Saturday filled courthouse squares and parks, marched on downtown streets or held up signs along sweltering highways as part of the nationwide “No Kings” rallies in protest of Trump...

While some demonstrators were treated for heat-related illness, there were no immediate reports of injuries, violence or arrests by late afternoon.

Senator Rand Paul, R-Bowling Green, has introduced the Health Marketplace and Savings Accounts for All Act, to make all Americans eligible for Health Savings Accounts (HSAs). Imagine the opening day of the Tabernacle. Everyone is celebrating. Then, Aaron's two sons, Nadab and Abihu, offer incense to God. Suddenly, fire shoots out from the Lord and consumes them. They die instantly in front of their father.

This story used to deeply confuse me. A woman comes to Jesus begging Him to heal her daughter. She believes. She persists. And instead of immediate compassion, Jesus says something shocking: “It is not right to take the children’s bread and throw it to the dogs.” For years, I softened this passage in my head—maybe it... I’ve lived in the same spot for 30 years, but lately, my Social Security check is gone before the month ends.

I was literally eating toast for dinner to save money. Then a friend at the senior center showed me Food Radar. I honestly couldn't believe my eyes. The map showed five different spots within 2 miles of my apartment giving away food today. I drove to the closest pin—a local church pantry. They filled my trunk with fresh vegetables, milk, and canned goods.

I didn't know this help was right under my nose the whole time.

Army's 250th anniversary. Organizers said the protests also aim to oppose the administration's immigration policies. At least 15 protests have been scheduled across North Texas.
