    Someone may or may not have reserved seats at the parade using Mitch McConnell's phone number.

      I was sorry to miss the protest. Our last show of the American Repertory Theatre subscription coincided with the timing of our town's protest. I saw on Bluesky that the size of it was about the same as the last 4 I did attend. We saw folks with No Kings signs in the restaurant after the show. There was a massive crowd in Boston.

        God help me. I saw a very short clip of a small black tank rolling down the road.

        I can't unsee it!

            Even the Russians are trolling Trump over the parade.

            I guess I'm not the only one who thought,

            1. These troops never learned how to drill, or

            2. They are utterly dispirited and contemptuous.

                  Was the music for Saturday’s military parade in Washington, D.C. covertly programmed by the “No Kings” movement?

                  That’s the question some were asking on social media after the event, spearheaded by President Donald J. Trump, which featured the repeated playing of Creedence Clearwater Revival’s classic “Fortunate Son” — a song that virtually the entire world knows by now was written during the Vietnam era as a slam against wealthy draft dodgers. The assumption being made by at least a few tweeters was that this had to be some kind of deliberate trolling of the president by someone on the music selection team who just has it in for him. Because if you were going to make a top 10 list of songs that Trump should not want to have played at any of his events — but most of all not at a military-themed ceremony — “Fortunate Son” would certainly be No. 1.

                    Except that Trump has been playing Fortunate Son at rallies for years, despite a cease and desist from the artist. So he's unwittingly trolling himself

                      @rustyfingers Yea, the article talks about that. And how he gets away with playing the song anyway.
