Fox News host Jesse Watters has slammed No Kings protesters as ignorant trend-chasers who had “no idea why they’re there” — after admitting that his own mother was among their ranks.

Here’s a question: Out of the ~7 million participants, does it ring true that these people fail to understand what the phrase “No Kings” means?

I think the average eight- or nine-year-old has learned in school what the American Revolution was all about.  The colonists were sick of being ruled by–that’s right–a king.

Most Americans don’t want a president who, like a king, is above the law, especially one who:

• Pardons violent criminals who happen to support him.

• Illegally gathers power into the executive branch by diminishing the power of the legislative and judiciary branches.

• Uses the Justice Department to punish his enemies.

• Appoints completely unqualified people to cabinet positions.

• Destroys our country’s efforts to clean up our energy and transportation sectors while supporting megadonors in fossil fuels.

• Dismantles all aspects of the federal government that provide help to the common American.

• Kick tens of millions of American citizens off healthcare.

• Jeopardize all Americans’ health and wellbeing by doing violence to government departments that study disease, research cancer, administer vaccines, etc.

It’s easy to see why Trump’s approval is tanking; Americans have lost their taste for an authoritarian, especially this conman.  It’s as simple as that.

The East Wing

Here’s a beautiful piece of writing political commentator Rick Wilson the demolition of the East Wing of the White House.

Perhaps this is stupid question, but I need to ask it nonetheless: Does the president of the U.S. have the right to do something like this? I presume he doesn’t have a deed to the White House.  As such, can he sell it? Build a Pizza Hut on the property?

How is this situation different than my walking across the street to the park, where I commence cutting down trees because they block my view of the mountains in the distance?

I would expect to be in handcuffs within a few minutes.  Why?  It’s not me property.

What the Destruction of the White House East Wing Means

Published

Here are a couple of remarks on Trump’s destroying the East Wing of the White House:

From Dan Rather

Witnessing any part of its demolition is a gut punch. Trump crossed an invisible line by destroying something that wasn’t his to destroy. You could say that about so much of what he has done, but the visual of seeing a bulldozer taking down part of this national treasure was a painful reminder of how he and his administration work every day at dismantling our democracy.

From the District of Columbia Preservation League

The demolition of the East Wing of the White House represents a collective loss—a serious affront to United States history and architectural heritage. While some may argue that modernization justifies this project, the country cannot overlook the profound cultural significance of the East Wing and its role within the White House complex. Its loss results in the irreplaceable erasure of a rich chapter in our national narrative.
Dating to the early 20th century, the East Wing has facilitated the initiatives of countless First Ladies, promoted public engagement, and welcomed millions of visitors, embodying the principle that government belongs to the people. Tearing down this vital space limits future opportunities for civic involvement and increases the risk of a lost connection between the presidency and the public.
