The nationwide No Kings rally, a 50-state protest against the sitting president’s policies and, let’s face it, competency, demeanor and open disdain of freedom of speech and democracy, on Saturday became the single largest non-violent protest in AMERICAN HISTORY.
Yeah, that’s right.
Evah.
More than 8 million people lined the streets of big cities, suburbs and small town rural areas in solidarity in order to fight for a democracy they, nee I, believe is being chipped away by a dangerously clownish old guy in pancake makeup who publicly, and embarrassingly, drones on and on about golden tractors and the majesty of a marble ballroom while privately invading countries, assembling a personal oligarchy, replete with a Brown-shirtish enforcement squad, as he grifts his way through personally beneficial financial transactions the likes of which the White House has never seen.
Don’t believe me on the latter?
Here’s some oligarchical grifting data with an accompanying list you can download in a document.
Of course, none of these actions are particularly surprising for anyone who has been paying attention, like all of us.
Instead, it’s mortifying.
As are the official statements of this White House to that great American tradition of protest, and the No Kings rally in particular.
WH spokesperson Abigail Jackson chalked it/them up to leftist funding networks, with little support from real American citizens.
The only people who care about these Trump Derangement Therapy Sessions are the reporters who are paid to cover them.
While a chief spokesman for the National Republican Congressional Committee, Maureen O’Toole, proclaimed:
These Hate America Rallies are where the far-left’s most violent, deranged fantasies get a microphone.
As someone who spent his pre-teen and early teen years living through the turbulent 1960s and early 1970s, this kind of talk sounds vaguely familiar.
It took a lot of deaths from an undeclared war and a lot of investigative reporting to expose the level of corruption that was really going on from the Oval Office on down, but eventually we got there.
And what led the way?
Peaceful, non-violent protests from protestors who were labeled un-American and deranged by the very people in power committing the corruption, along with the throngs of those enabling them.
In other words, large swaths of ordinary American citizens nationwide. In each state.
Everywhere.
Here are some links to what’s been happening. With lots of photos and information.
Stay tuned.
And keep hope alive.
As well as yourself.
