Late To The Game
By Mitch Berg
It’s fair to say I was a “No Kings” protester back in 2020-2021.
We protested against unconstitutional government overreach and abuse of the bureaucracy – 16 months of “emergency powers” for a three month emergency, snitch lines, shutting down businesses and churches, declaring rioting “good for public health”.
Oh, you might have missed it. Partly because the government colluded with Facebook, Twitter and big media to censor us. To shut us up.
Y’know. Stuff that kings do. Actually, more “dictators” than “Kings” these days.
Well, stuff they did in 2020-2021. But, oddly enough, not Saturday, where not a single protest was culled from social media or blocked by public health authorities.
I drove past one of the “protests” in Eagan on Saturday. Lots of American flags. It’d seem someone at “No Kings”‘s non-profit HQ got the word that Palestinian flags were not polling well.

Didn’t spend a second giving the reprobate party any attention this weekend, I was busy splitting wood.
But I did hear a story this morning that I wish I’d have heard more about.
Evidently Trump met with Zelensky, and told him Ukraine is just gonna have to cede the Donbass so get over it.
This was inevitable from the moment Russian forces crossed the border; everyone not rooting one side or the other saw that right away. Crimea was a done deal years ago.
Ukraine can still parlay their issues into a fat reconstruction financing package from Russia, if they’re smart. Zelensky would be well advised to take the money while there are still a few men left in Ukraine under the age of 65.
