NO BOSSES
Powerline ^ | 28 Mar 2026 | Scott Johnson

Posted on 03/28/2026 8:28:35 AM PDT by Rummyfan

Bruce Springsteen is the headliner at the flagshiip No Kings rally at the state Capitol in Saint Paul this afternoon. Joan Baez, Jane Fonda, and Bernie Sanders are also primed to appear. Truth in advertising would require the rally to be redesignated Gimme That Old Time Religion or In Search of Lost Time. As the Rolling Stones once trilled, “What a drag it is getting old.”

Tim Walz, Keith Ellison, and Ilhan Omar will also be there. They wouldn’t want to miss the chance to rag on the King. Opposing the King has become the lodestone of their careers. Contrary to the theme of the proceedings, it comes at no cost and places them at no risk. Abe Greenwald aptly observed in the Commentary newsletter: “Trump is such an oppressive emperor that Americans have felt completely secure in coming out to publicly protest him and his administrations more than they have any previous president. His suppression machine is clearly on the fritz.”

Indivisible co-founder Ezra Levin is one of the organizers. He.will be on hand as well. The Twin Cities are a hotbed of support for illegal immigration and opposition to ICE. Levin senses a market opportunity. “That’s bringing in a whole new set of people who are not necessarily politically active on most of our issues. They are shocked at what this guy is doing in order to distract from [President Trump’s] own corruption and unpopularity.” One goal of Saturday’s protests, said Levin, was building “unified opposition to war funding” among Democrats. Where have all the flowers gone?

We are accustomed to artists like Springsteen making fools of themselves in the service of politics. Nobody cares, but they also betray their art in doing so.

No Kings is all suffociating superego. Freedom has nothing to do with it. These superannuated rebels with a cause risk nothing but embarrassment.

They are also cowards. The “abolish ICE” animus that drives the proceedings in the Twin Cities today supports illegal immigration. Yet the they don’t quite say it. We have to infer it. Not that it’s subtle.

Springsteen said,”My job is very simple: I do what I want to do, I say what I want to say and then people get to say what they want to say about it”

Where’s the problem? Where does one find “fascism “ in that statement? These people are Crazy!

They are sending the shuttle buses to my mother’s “senior living” center to take them to sit out on a street corner waving their professionally printed signs while wearing ridiculous costumes.

Congratulations geezers, we still have no king... (apologies to geezers)

Imagine a man calling himself "The Boss" telling followers "No Kings".

The audience would be better off listening to The Who: "meet the new boss, same as the old boss" - 'Won't Get Fooled Again'
