No Kings, No Sh*t

October 18, 2025 (Vol. 19 No. 41) - While millions of Americans took to the streets yesterday in protest of the Trump Administration's increasingly authoritarian approach to governing, the President of the United States used a crude and disgusting A-I generated video to literally crap upon the American people. In more than 2,600 communities throughout the nation and including some overseas as well, millions of people exercised their free speech rights to express their opposition to an administration that has used masked agents to detain persons of color they believe may be in the United States illegally. Often they are indiscriminately arresting American citizens and people who are properly documented to be in the United States. These protesters object of the weaponization of the Justice Department in vengeful pursuit of Trump's perceived enemies. They are angry about the dismantling of federal safety net programs at the expense of the poor to pay for tax breaks for Trump's ultra-rich friends. Trump's tariffs have already negatively impacted America's farmers by driving China's soybean import market from the United States to Argentina. Speaking of Argentina, why is Trump endorsing a $20-40 billion bailout of Argentina's flailing economy while gutting healthcare, public safety, education and safety net programs for everyday Americans? Let's not forget the immorally pliant Republican Congress that has shutdown the government to avoid any compromise with Democrats - and in an attempt to avoid the inevitable release of the Epstein files. (Based on what we already know about Trump's attraction to young, underage girls, does anyone doubt that Trump is a sexual pervert?) It looks like Trump is again cozying up to Vladimir Putin at the expense of Ukraine. (Could it be because of the pee-pee tape?) Trump turned a blind eye to Israel's genocide in Gaza, only now to claim he deserves the Nobel Peace Prize. And what's with giving Qatar an airbase in Idaho? (It likely has more to do with Trump's personal business interests than with national security.)
Those are just some of the reasons that millions of Americans - including myself (above) - were compelled to raise their voices and say "enough is enough." Here in Lawrence, Kansas, approximately 1,000-2,000 people gathered in a downtown park in a non-violent, albeit noisy protest. To put those numbers in context, they are significantly higher than those during last June's nationwide Trump birthday protests. Based on the pictures I have seen from other cities, that sharp increase is indicative of a growing and engaged national opposition to Trump and his party of sycophants. Yesterday's protests should give every Republican pause. Surely some of them are wondering just how long they can afford to ride that one-trick pony. Even with their attempt to redraw congressional district maps to rig next year's midterm elections, the Republicans may well lose both the House and the Senate.
And how did the President of the United States, the erstwhile leader of the Free World, react to yesterday's protests? After yet another round of taxpayer subsidized golf, he posted an A-I generated video of him as a pilot in a fighter jet. He was wearing a crown. As the plane swooped over protesters in a city that looked a lot like New York, he unleashed a bomb load of a brown liquid substance upon the crowd. It takes no imagination as to what that disgusting substance was. Metaphorically, King Donald was joyfully taking a dump upon the people he is supposed to serve.
Yesterday's protests were huge. And they are only going to get bigger as Trump's policies hurt more and more people - especially those who voted for him. The die is cast. Against Trump's wishes, the tide of democracy is rising. Eventually, it will cover everything, including Donald Trump's crown. That's it for now. Fear the Turtle.
