This wasn't some “conservative” “pushback”.
The powers that be decided to cancel our annual celebration. This resulted in an excess of high grade Fireworks along with idle hands and some extra cash from the stimulus. This was a significant factor for the fireworks over the last several weeks.
Last night seemed to me to be more of a general “Revolt” by Americans regardless of political leanings. We were told no, now go home and cower while awaiting their next proclamation.
Our response seemed to be that we'll only listen to a point, and that we don't need their approval to celebrate and have a good time.
BINGO!
