Elderly White People Protest Against Democracy
Posted By: Dreadnought, 10/20/2025 12:36:34 AM
The Democrats (and their socialist and Communist allies) mounted “no kings” protests yesterday, just as they did in July. The July protests accomplished absolutely nothing, and yesterday’s will be no different. The New York Times kept up a brave front, headlining “‘No More Trump!’: Protesters Denouncing the President Unite Across the Country.” But in fact, the protests were mostly the occasion for epic trolling. We could consider this a supplement to yesterday’s Week In Pictures:

Like many Americans, I watched with interest as the “No Kings” spectacle unfolded. It was rather like a box of Monty Python's chocolates. I had no idea what I was going to get, but I was pretty sure I wasn't going to like it much. In this, at least, I was not disappointed.
So, what, exactly, did this crunchy frog of a “No Kings” thing accomplish? We haven’t had any kings since the day we declared our independence. And before I had my coffee made this morning, I was deeply concerned, so I checked. Turns out, we still don’t.

SAN ANTONIO, Texas — A San Antonio Church and residents of several northside neighborhoods were left to deal with damages left by “No Kings” related vandals in the aftermath of the protest in the Alamo City. The vandals targeted residential homes, traffic signs, highway overpasses, and one of the city’s largest churches.
At the Community Bible Church (CBC), where weekly attendance is estimated at over 15,000 worshipers, vandals left messages spray-painted on the church grounds and building that read, “Jesus wants TRUMP gone!” and “No King but God”. CBC Pastor Ed Newton posted images of the vandalism and offered commentary in an Instagram social media post on Saturday.
WASHINGTON - The United States announced Sunday another strike against what it called a drug-running boat, this time attacking an alleged Colombian leftist rebel vessel in an apparent expansion of a US military operation off the coasts of South America.
Word of the attack from Pentagon chief Pete Hegseth came as President Donald Trump said the United States is halting financial aid to Colombia and will announce tariffs against it on Monday.
The United States has had warships deployed in the Caribbean off Venezuela since August and has attacked at least six boats it said were running drugs toward the United States, killing at least 27 people so far.
The Gaza peace deal has rightly been characterized as tenuous at best — largely because Hamas seemingly wouldn't know honoring a commitment if it smacked the terrorist outfit upside the head. Speaking of which...
On Saturday, the U.S. State Department issued an urgent bulletin, warning of an imminent Hamas attack on the people of Gaza and also warning that the "United States and the other guarantors" would take steps to protect Gazans and uphold the "integrity of the ceasefire." Now, the IDF has indeed responded to multiple Hamas violations of the ceasefire.
An Israeli military official confirmed the strikes to Fox News on Sunday,
After a U.S.-led campaign, the United Nations has postponed a vote on a proposal to impose the world’s first global carbon tax on shipping, delaying the decision by one year.
The rule was expected to come up for a vote this week as part of the U.N. International Maritime Organization’s (IMO) "Net-Zero Framework." But a majority of member nations voted to defer it after failing to reach consensus amid U.S. opposition.
Backed by the European Union and Brazil, the plan seeks to raise billions from carriers that exceed new emissions limits, channeling the revenue toward climate adaptation and clean-fuel projects in developing nations.
Washington and Riyadh led the opposition.
NBC News will be terminating 150 Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) employees who are responsible for "Black, Latino, Asian and LGBTQ+" coverage in the newsroom.
The Wrap, in an exclusive, reported that NBC News was firing its teams dedicated to issues affecting those communities.
NBC News executive vice president of editorial, Catherine Kim, announced the cuts to staff on the morning of Oct. 15. Kim claimed that the layoffs made things a “difficult day for a lot of us,” the Wrap reported.
The Wednesday newsroom massacre comes as NBC News splits from its sister news network, MSNBC.
The total reductions will cut about 7% of NBC News’ 2,000 newsroom staffers
President Trump revealed Friday that Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro has "offered everything" to persuade the United States to back off amid escalating American strikes on suspected drug trafficking boats.
Trump shocked reporters during a meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky when he was asked about Maduro's attempts to offer mediation. Not so much for the content of his response, but for how he delivered it.
The President offered an expletive-laced frank assessment of the dictator's attempts to get him and Secretary of War Pete Hegseth to take their foot off the gas in disrupting narco-terrorists' operations.
A reporter questioned Trump regarding Maduro's overtures.
“It’s been reported, Mr. President
Rep. John James (R-Mich.) now holds the best position of any GOP candidate to potentially flip the governorship in Michigan from blue to red in the 2026 election, according to new polling data. If James actually wins next year, the state’s political landscape would shift seismically, providing further evidence that the country as a whole is shifting away from Democrat policies. It's a win that would bode well for other GOP and MAGA candidates running for other offices at various levels of government as well.
The Plymouth Union Public (PUP) Research survey shows James leading the general election field and crushing a crowded crop of candidates in the primary.
Until now, the conventional wisdom on the midterm elections has been cautionary -- for Republicans. The party holding the White House generally loses ground anyway. The dramatic shifts in policy under Donald Trump would likely make voters skittish, analysts warned, and a lackluster economic environment provided even more reason for pessimism. And for a while, polls showed a grim picture for the GOP in next year's contests.
Well, hold the phone. Polls have shifted over the last six months, CNN forecaster Harry Enten warns -- or more to the point, the polls haven't shifted at all. Democrats haven't picked up any new support during Trump's presidency, falling off the pace
The four-star Navy admiral in command of all U.S. military forces in South and Central America, including the Caribbean Sea, will retire later this year after less than a year on the job.
Adm. Alvin Holsey, a Navy pilot who led U.S. Southern Command in the early stages of the burgeoning targets against the region's drug cartels directed at Venezuela, "plans to retire at year's end," according to an X post by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth.
Hegseth praised Holsey's "37 years of distinguished service," which also included a tour as U.S. Southern Command's deputy commander. He took over "SOUTHCOM" in November 2024.
President Donald Trump said that he and Russian President Vladimir Putin agreed during a lengthy phone call on Thursday to meet in Budapest, Hungary, to discuss how to end Russia’s war in Ukraine.
Trump also said that Secretary of State Marco Rubio and other ‘High Level Advisors’ will meet next week with their Russian counterparts to lay the groundwork for his summit with Putin. Trump did not say when he expects to meet with Putin. Trump detailed his call with Putin in a Truth Social post.

A gang of brazen thieves dropped the priceless Eugénie Crown outside the Louvre in Paris during a jaw-dropping daylight heist of the world's most visited museum.
The group of criminals swiped priceless items, including a necklace and a brooch once belonging to Napoleon Bonaparte and his wife Josephine, in broad daylight, forcing the tourist attraction to shut its doors.
The raid, which took place at around 9.30am on Sunday, saw the thieves brazenly break into the art museum, which is also home to the Mona Lisa, by propping a huge freight elevator up against its walls, according to an investigating source.
The group of several 'highly organised criminals' arrived on scooters, masking their
Officials in President Trump’s Justice Department have been scrutinizing crime data in recent months — they’ve found evidence that Democratic politicians have been skewing crime stats for their own benefit ahead of the midterm elections, The Post has learned.
Illinois Democratic Gov. JB Pritzker — a vocal opponent of Trump’s use of federal troops for both immigration enforcement and fighting big-blue-city crime — has lately touted double-digit declines in Chicago crime rates where “shootings and homicides on our highways are down 60, 70, 80% depending on where you look.”
But the number of felonies in Chicago — not to mention New York, Los Angeles and Portland, Ore. —

USSS spotted a suspicious stand near the AF1 zone in Palm Beach,” Patel wrote in a post on X, which included a screenshot of a Fox News article. “The FBI is investigating.”
In a statement to Fox News, Patel explained that the Secret Service “discovered what appeared to be an elevated hunting stand” that had a view of the President exiting Air Force One. Patel added that “no individuals were located at the scene.”
“Prior to the President’s return to West Palm Beach, USSS discovered what appeared to be an elevated hunting stand within sight line of the Air Force One landing zone,” Patel said in his statement,
Leftists are so obsessed with the Trump collusion hoax that they are seeing ‘connections’ in the most ridiculous of places, including the choice of tie that War Secretary Pete Hegseth wore yesterday. Not surprisingly, the latest conspiracy theory regarding Trump-Russia backfired.
As The Gateway Pundit’s Jordan Conradson reported, a high-stakes meeting Friday involving President Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy took place in the Cabinet Room of the White House, a departure from the typical Oval Office meetings that the President holds with foreign leaders.
The protesters weren’t the only senior citizens at the ‘No Kings’ protests today. In Massachusetts, Senator Ed Markey was out in full force, yelling about the fact that we don’t have kings in the United States, as if we didn’t know that.
The ironic part is that Ed Markey has been in elected office in Massachusetts since 1973.
From his Wikipedia page:
Edward John Markey (born July 11, 1946) is an American politician serving as the junior United States senator from the state of Massachusetts, a seat he has held since 2013. A member of the Democratic Party, he served 20 terms (18 full, two partial) as the U.S.
Are Democrats Really This Stupid?

Every time you think Democrats have hit bottom, that they couldn’t go any lower, one of them breaks out a shovel. Yesterday was the “No Showers,” I mean, “No Kings” rally. A bunch of unlovable mutants took time away from cyber-stalking the OnlyFans people they subscribe to and got a little free vitamin D from the sun to fight off the onset of rickets. For the first time in a few years, major liberal cities across the country shifted from smelling like pot and tear gas to smelling like body odor and tear gas…and pot, because that’s how liberals roll.

Tellingly, the most senior of the nine officers axed on the 17th was General He Weidong, the second-ranked vice chairman of the Commission and Xi Jinping's No. 1 loyalist in the PLA. The general had gained prominence as Xi's top enforcer in the military.
Gen. He was not the only officer who backed Xi and has now been taken out of the military's leadership ranks. Moreover, it is difficult to identify any Xi adversary who was purged in the last 18 months.
It is unlikely, at a time Xi Jinping appears to be fighting for political survival, that he would remove his most important supporter in the military.

Fox News broke the story that the FBI is now investigating a hunting stand the U.S. Secret Service discovered with a “direct line of sight” to where the president exits Air Force One in Florida at the Palm Beach International Airport. According to Fox News: “Agents found the stand on Thursday, and the FBI is now leading an investigation into the discovery. FBI Director Kash Patel said the hunting stand has not yet been connected to any individual.
The IDF began “a series of strikes” against Hamas targets in southern Gaza in response to the terror group violating the ceasefire agreement on Sunday, the military announced.
The military condemned Hamas’s “blatant violation of the ceasefire agreement,” which occurred when the terror group fired an anti-tank missile and opened fire on Israeli soldiers.
Earlier, the Prime Minister's Office announced that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had instructed Israel's armed forces to respond with force against Gazan terror targets during a consultation with Defense Minister Israel Katz and the heads of Israel's security establishment.
No More (Bureaucrats Who Would Be) Kings

If you’re reading this today, you probably did not join the aged hippies marching around with signs saying “No more Kings,”a multistate demonstration whose sponsors are not yet fully disclosed. (I don’t think Meghan and Harry are among them, though there are some foreign donors involved.) But rest assured, you didn't miss much.
John Bolton: This Week in “No Man is Above the Law”
The biggest domestic story of the week in my view was the indictment of former National Security Adviser John Bolton. If the 18-count indictment handed down by a federal grand jury in Maryland where he resides is proven, he demonstrated astonishing arrogance and disregard for national security.
Former National Security Adviser Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn sharply criticized former Vice President Mike Pence in a series of posts this week, accusing him of betrayal, hypocrisy, and silence over what Flynn described as one of the most difficult periods of his life and career.n several statements posted to X, Flynn accused Pence of failing to reach out to him after years of controversy surrounding his prosecution and subsequent exoneration.
“Sadly, it appears a former VP of the USA @Mike_Pence was as bad as they say he was,” Flynn wrote.
