The fact that there were no counterprotests shows that Trumpism and MAGA barely exist outside of social media. This movement has gradually collapsed completely within the population. — It’s difficult to fill the real world with Trump government troll bots.

With new tariffs on everything and his VC buddies buying up housing inventory, prices are headed even higher soon.

A tweet from the Governor Newsom Press Office says: “The Trump effect,” quoting a post from Barchart that reads: “U.S. Housing Market has reached its most unaffordable level in history 🚨🚨.” Below is a chart titled “U.S. Home Price History: 1890 to 2025,” showing inflation-adjusted home prices with sharp rises in 2006 and a new record peak labeled “2025 Bubble.”

But seriously, what is wrong with this demented animal?

(In the full video, he bombs No Kings protesters with diarrhea from a jet with KING TRUMP on the side of it.)

I know Donald Trump is a pathological liar, malignant narcissistic sociopath, racist, antisemite, misogynist, xenophobe, homophobe, transphobe, hater of our troops and believer in euthanizing folks with disabilities, but we too often forget that he's *also* an adjudicated rapist and convicted felon.

For all the insinuations that the event’s organizers are oriented to violence, Indivisible, the organization sponsoring No Kings, has an extensive track record that shows a longstanding emphasis on safety and nonviolence. www.thebulwark.com/p/no-kings-r...

The No Kings far left, socialist worshiping violence today was out of control and therefore successful. Witness this antifa thug armed with weapons of mass disrespection.

Republicans have been calling the “No Kings” protests a “Hate America rally.” So, we asked protestors what they thought about it. Here are their responses.

The only arrest I saw today-
Officers from the Myrtle Beach Police Department observed an individual in a vehicle brandish a firearm while traveling near a planned demonstration in the area. Mary Moriarty, 59, of Surfside Beach, SC, has been charged with pointing and presenting a firearm.

Military Plans to Fire Artillery Over California Freeway on Saturday www.nytimes.com/2025/10/18/u... #ProudBlue. Firing live rounds across a major freeway during No Kings is clear evidence that Trump plans to use the military against US citizens. Otherwise why target a major freeway on No Kings Day?
