I am going to the kings protest in Las Vegas tomorrow. I'll keep the thread updated.

Be careful and maybe observe them from a safe distance.

 

[Dog-O-Tron 5000v5.0]

There are 7 protests within a 20 miles radius of my house, my county is about 150k people.
 Yikes

They are in a lot of small towns and places you would not think they would be.

 

[Smashed & Slamed]

I'm betting it all on Nothing Burger for this protest. There is no way the Democrats assembled millions of protestors just as Israel is Bomb Bomb Bomb Bomb Bombing Iran. And not after the LA protests have fizzled out. This will make 50501 look like a Something Burger.

My drive to work takes me through a city where a protest is scheduled (blue state, blue county, small blue city). My path is about a block or two away from the protest at city hall. If anything interesting happens I'll mention. I won't go out of my way to swing by to observe the actual protest, but if it spills over to my way to work that'll be interesting in and of itself.

My actual place of work doesn't have anything on the map.

As usual, I'll also be packing, though I'm not really expecting anything. When we had a "protest" for Floyd it was the most orderly, politest gathering I had ever seen.

So NOW we're counting the dollars that parades cost and have to protest everywhere over a 250 year army anniversary parade. This happens every fucking time with Trump, the media latch onto everything and put people into a frenzy about nothing. Be patriotic, be American, go celebrate in the streets with your families you miserable fucks.

I see places like the Washington post say "7 better uses of parade money" but what about the government trooning schemes costing far more? What about the pride parades? What about arming Israel? What about any of the corrupt shit that you fake journalists ignored? You can't have it both ways. When DOGE was trying to solve the wasted spending, you cried and complained.

 

[Dammit Mandrake!]

Over 5,000 protests! And between two to ten people at each. A handful may bring a couple dozen out and those will be the photo op.

Yeah.

 

[Schpoots]

Imagine how much money well save if the parade tanks roll over all the welfare leeches larping as revolutionaries.

Iranian state TV apparently showed some Nick Fuentes clips. I repeat, Iran is going groyper. Israel must use nukes immediately, and Trump should back them up.

 

[Space Faring Marsupial]

I don't give a fuck about jews and sand niggers for fucks sake, beyond speculating if Trump will involve us what does the vast majority of this shit have to do with US politics?
They can kill each other for all I care.

Anyway, new EO, didn't see it posted:

Could have really used this before a wildfire effected me ngl.

Iran poses the same existential threat to humanity & to the world that Nazi Germany did last century. I believe in peace. But peace is not possible while the Iran exists.

I can't remember but there's a state that lets you basically drive through protestors that are blocking the road. Which state was this?

Inflation is down in terms of growth. Businesses are investing in US based manufacturing. Any recession we are experiencing is residual from Biden not Trump's six months in office. Thanks for finally admitting we have been in a recession though.
We are marginally closer to WW3 than we were when Biden stoked the war between Russia and Ukraine. Trump is also not responsible for Israel's actions(that we know of).
The riots in the streets are due to the upholding of US law and left wing/Mexican nationalist funding and Democrat leadership indifference at best and sick willingness to use people as pawns even if they die at worst.
Any political opponents that were arrested were not arrested for their politics rather they trespassed on federal property or tried to assault confront the Secretary of Homeland Security while wearing no ID and not identifying himself before attacking secret service agents.

So....this guy is a fucking retard.

Have a means to defend yourself or an escape plan, stay safe.

You don't hate journalists enough, you think you do, but you don't.

I'm just wondering. A lot of MAGA people were saying, that under Trump, no wars would happen. He himself said that. He said that he would end the war in Ukraine. We are 6 months into his tenure, an so far

- A conflict between India and Pakistan
- A conflict between Israel and Iran
- Fuck all done to war in Ukraine

Also major civil unrest in America, 2nd time during his presidency.

Is everyone treating Trump like a joke? No one is taking him seriously?

 

[FILTH Tourist]

It's good but the gulf war chocolate chip bdus being old enough to be considered historical is both neat and sobering

I just realize something. Are they going to have soldiers wear those ugly universal camo pattern uniforms? Why would Trump torture his own his own men like that?

I believe Florida gives civil immunity, but not criminal, if you are forced to drive through them.

This is where the protesters are getting some of their money, per reddit comments:

https://indivisible.org/campaign/indivisigather-community-building-event-reimbursement-program

There's a google doc on the site that indicates what can and cannot be reimbursed. All with the disclaimer that it's non-partisan and cannot be used to promote or oppose a specific candidate. eta: I realize this is just ass covering on their part lmao.

Bipartisan my ass. In their socials they don't use Twitter, but they use bluesky and Mastodon which are very liberal communities.

Also their bluesky account is just the co-founders personal account where she is actively promoting the no kings event.

I hope the FBI looks at their finances, they are clearly there just to bankroll liberal causes and I doubt they are getting the money to do this from donations alone.
