I read that 11M turned out for that while the somekings event maybe got 250k though that figure was from a trumpster, elsewhere reports are 'tens' of thousands which is pitiful.
🇨🇦 I loved it. Trump is SO obsessed with ratings. It’s got to be making him crazy that the pitiful turnout at his Big Beautiful Birthday Parade was completely overshadowed by the No Kings protests.
I enjoy assuming he’s stomping around the WH, stewing about everyone wrecking his Big Beautiful Birthday Parade. It’s rare that thinking about him can make me smile. I’m taking it! 😀
I was sad but then happy because it’s theoretically 1 less excuse MAGA can make to explain the catastrophe that was Trump’s birthday party. The no fucks given marching was a sight to behold.
I'm torn b/c I was 100% rooting for rain to scuttle the event... but there's also something potentially revelatory & morale-shifting about it being "sad trombone" on its own steam rather than getting randomly thwarted.
Yeah, Donald would be laughed out of annual authoritarian meeting by Putin, Xi and others for this. C'mon you are not even on the level of France for the Bastille day parade
I honestly did not know it was going on. All we saw here in my corner of Bavaria were your "No Kings" protests, which were wonderful. Glad to see his parade was a dismal failure, just like him, his kids, and everything he's ever attempted.
You know that Stephen Miller ordered up “Fortunate Son” to thumb the Presidential schnoggin at Fogerty’s 2020 cease and desist letter, not caring what musicologists among the troops would read from it.
Is there a “Seeds of Mutiny” category at the Grammies?
I believe it.
Several accounts have posted that they did, and that video looks authentic (by contrast with text posters I’ve only seen the one video).
“Fortunate Son” was used at Trump rallies in 2020 and John Fogarty was sufficiently disgusted that he sent a cease and desist. 🤭
No Springsteen tho.
I was doing really badly yesterday. Today helped so much with the protests and the weak parade.
Everything remains awful, but at least I feel like I can fight again!!

Ideal result, I think.
There are lessons to be learned from this, and they are also all irritating.

And it was also just hilariously pathetic.
Everything they do is awful. Sophomoric. Bush league.

Did they follow it up with Born in the USA?
