The No Kings protests (known in some quarters as the Hate America demonstrations) are getting ready to rock and roll, hallelujah. What you’ll see here is George Conway setting the stage for this weekend. Nice to hear from a recognizable conservative. I never used to have beefs with those people. Not real beefs, in any event. We would discuss minor aspects of the Affordable Care Aspect and what have you back in the day, in civilized fashion. CPAC was a place where genuine conservative intellectuals came to debate fine points, and not the circus that it has now come. Hopefully, we’ll see a turnaround back to sanity at some point and it all may start tomorrow.

Now we get onto the Springsteen parody.

Even Fox News is running the headline, “Millions Expected To Flood Streets At No Kings Protests Targeting Trump Across All 50 States.” That’s a succinct headline, I’ll go along with that.

More than 2,500 events are planned across all 50 states, according to the organizers, a coalition of more than 200 progressive groups led by Indivisible. Major demonstrations are expected in Washington, D.C., New York, Philadelphia, Chicago and Los Angeles.

Protesters are being urged to wear yellow “to show collective strength in the face of oppression,” according to organizers, who accuse the administration of “sending militarized agents into our communities, silencing voters, and handing billionaires giveaways while families struggle.”

The demonstrations come amid growing backlash to President Donald Trump’s decision to federalize the National Guard and deploy troops to several major U.S. cities, including Los Angeles, Washington, D.C., Memphis, Portland and, most recently, Chicago. A federal judge blocked the Guard’s street deployment in Chicago but allowed the units to remain under federal command.

At the same time, Immigration and Customs Enforcement has intensified nationwide raids targeting illegal immigrants, focusing on areas where day laborers often gather, such as Home Depot parking lots.

Republicans are condemning the demonstrations, with some calling them unpatriotic. House Speaker Mike Johnson told Fox News the protests are being driven by “the pro-Hamas wing and the Antifa people,” and accused Democrats of delaying government shutdown negotiations to appease their base.

Johnson just sounds like the fool that he is. As George Conway said, “Humor is kryptonite to Donald Trump,” and so expect a lot of bunny rabbits, squirrels, bears, and other creatures to fight back the image of “terrorism.” It’s a little hard to worry about terrorism when a giant raccoon is jumping up and down in time to music like the Springsteen parody.

Also look for killer bees. Yellow is a color people are asked to wear, so you know there’s going to be some classic SNL parodies.

Humor is a powerful weapon. Mark Twain said, “Against the assault of laughter, nothing can stand.” Certainly not a demented, almost-80 year old malignant narcissist. And he won’t be standing. He’ll either be hiding in the fetal position, sucking his thumb, or he will be driving around his golf course, between having his caddies help him cheat at each hole. That’s the weekend, folks, for both the yous and mes and Donald.

  1. I hear he’s now saying he’s not a king…dictator/king…minor difference. One’s born into royalty…the other born into 400 million grifted from the government. The second is gifted by the rich and powerful. Either way they are the law.

  2. I suspect Stephen Miller’s got all sorts of bad actors/agents provocateurs lined up, ready to step in, disguised as Antifa, to start brawls and, if possible, attack LE or ICE “observers” at the protests. You’re right: Trump will be cheating on the links, it’s Slimy Stephen who’s running this show. Peaceful protest are the last thing he wants and he’ll do whatever it takes to disrupt them, with that tantalizing Insurrection Act dangling in front of his insane eyeballs. The patriotic citizens marching against dictatorship must stay cool and video every goon who appears in their ranks.
