Hi, this is Free Thinking through the fourth turning. My name is Sasha Stone. No kings. The lunatics are running the asylum. Do you have any idea how crazy you are? Let me ask you something. If the rule you followed brudget of this, of what use was the rule? Do you have any idea how crazy you are? You mean the nature of this conversation? I mean the nature of you. So goes in exchange in no country for Old men. But it's a conversation the Democrats might have with themselves. Themselves as they gather for yet another protest after 10 years of them. If the rule you're following has led you to this, of what use was the rule? For podcast listeners, an article from Time magazine. Millions expected to rally across us in no King's Day protests against Trump. Protests are meant to be the voices of the unheard. Yet these protests are the voices of those who never shut up. Not for one minute, not for 10 years. And all of us have had to endure them. Like being trapped inside Willy Wonka's chocolate factory with hundreds of thousands of Veruca Salts. Now, now I want a ball I want a party Pink macaroons and a million balloons and performing baboons and give it to me now I want the world I want the whole world I want to lock it all in my pocket it's my bar of chocolate give it to me now I want today, I want tomorrow I want to wear em like braids in my hair and I don't want to share em I want a party with roomfuls of laughter 10,000 tons of ice cream and if I don't get the things I am after I'm going to scream I want the works I want the whole works Presents and prizes and sweets and surprises of all shapes and sizes and now don't care how I want it now don't care how I want it now. What are their no Kings protests anyway? What have they been since 2016? What are they trying to say? It is like the ex who smashes all the dishes in the kitchen when her husband tries to leave. I just want to be a part of your life. Oh, this is the way you do it, huh? Showing up at my appointment. What am I supposed to do? You won't answer my calls. You change your number. I mean, I'm not going to be ignored, Dan. What is the point of it? To what end now? Of what use was the rule? The voices of the unheard? More like the side that had everything. All the media, all the institutions, all the culture and for a time, all the government, the people only had Trump. They gathered their small donations and by some miracle voted him in because they had a right to be represented, because this is their country, too. It was a revolutionary act that mounted some sort of opposition to a movement that had swallowed up much of American society and demanded that we all go along or be left behind. They managed to have the mother of all protests in the summer of 2020. Smashing windows, burning buildings, beating up cops, and throwing massive fits. That said, we're mad, but mad at what? Democracy. Sorry you lost an election. I try to remember being one of them and feeling the same way. But why did we think we had the right to protest an election just because it didn't go our way? And not just protest, but protest all of the time over everything, because we had all the power and we couldn't stand a compromise with the other half of the country. They had to go. MAGA had to go. We canceled them. They're racists. We said elections only counted if Democrats won. The other side was not allowed to win. Try to make change or fight for their right to representation. Not in 2016 and not in 2024. So the protests will not end because the people have to be made to suffer for their vote. So, fine, the American people said, In 2020, okay, we'll vote him out. Donald Trump is an existential threat, and our country is pure chaos. Desperate times call for desperate measures so that, you know, like, rigging an election becomes necessary. And fine, we'll vote in Joe Biden. Maybe that will calm things down. Finally, the protests will end. Cut two. A botched exit from Afghanistan. Thirteen American soldiers dead. Two wars in Russia and the Middle East. One long, dark winter, a bad economy, and are we topless at the White House tonight? The White House at the center of the latest Pride Month controversy. Welcome to the White House. Thank you. Saying transgender activist Rose Montoya is now barred from future events. It all happened at what was the largest Pride celebration in White House history. Happy Pride Month. Montoya posting a reel on Instagram showing her at the event, shaking hands and posing for selfies with the President. Hi, Mr. President. It is an honor. Then, after Biden moved on, Montoya standing next to two transgender men who had surgically removed their breasts, all posing topless on the White House lawn. Critics taking to the Internet in outrage. The White House then responding, saying the behavior was inappropriate and disrespectful. It was unfair to the hundreds of attendees who were there to celebrate their families. It really does not reflect the event that we hosted. Adding that those in the Video will not be invited to future events, but Montoya taking to TikTok to defend her actions. I would just like to say that first of all, going topless in Washington D.C. is legal. Why is my chest now deemed inappropriate or illegal when I show it off? However, before for coming out as trans, it was not. I had zero intention of trying to be vulgar or be profane in any way. It was like George Spahn had moved in and ushered in the Manson family. Things were getting weird and the culture of silence and climate of fear meant no one would tell them they were freaking America out. The Democrats became totalitarian while in power, not just censoring speech on social media, not just institutionalized cancel culture in a transgender contagion that was spiraling out of control, an obsession with race and racism and anti racism. And if that weren't enough, they weaponized the Justice Department, tried to throw Trump both in jail and off the ballot. Suddenly the Trump chaos wasn't looking so bad. But we still lived through the first president to have his home raided by the FBI, the first mug shot, and then watched him almost get his head blown off on live television. None of that made even the slightest bit of difference. They were still somehow the victims, even though they lost in both 2016 and 2024 entirely on their own. Whose fault was it that Joe Biden, behaving like a king, elbowed out any challengers even though he was in serious decline? Whose fault was it that the Democrats and the media said nothing? George Clooney said nothing until he was publicly humiliated after the debate? Whose fault was it that they pushed Kamala Harris as the nominee thinking it would be easy to defeat Trump? After all, he's a twice impeached, four times indicted convicted felon. Whose fault was it that Kamala Harris was a terrible candidate and every honest Democrat knew that in 2020? But suddenly everyone just pretended not to remember how she was humiliated and triggered by Tulsi Gabbard and then dropped out because she was polling so badly? Whose fault was it that the Democrats have given their party over to lunatics who still insist trans women are women and that they should be able to play in sports against real women? We just need to change the messaging, said King Barack. What choice did reasonable people have but to vote the Democrats out and keep them out until such time as they can come back to sanity? They fight against mass deportations and want an open border while also demanding free health care for all. They never see any problem with this. To them, it's a human right that someone else always has to pay for. They are the victims here and all of America is expected to address their needs or else no kings. They're like the attention starved kindergartner who can't stop crying in the corner, the stalker ex who monitors your every move, and the nagging wife who won't leave you alone all rolled in one. What about me? What about my needs? They are the party of the rich, yet pretend to be the voice of the people as if that ship sailed long ago. The Bernie Sanders AOC Zoran Mamdani brand of socialism is yet more virtue signaling for graduates of Ivy League colleges and wealthy celebrities. As long as you signal tax the rich, you can chum around with Anna Wintour and Kim Kardashian. It all sounds good, right? Let the poor people have free stuff and they'll leave us rich folks alone. They're happy to pay a guilt tax as long as they can instagram by day and sleep at night. Give the poor and the marginalized whatever they need and join me on my yacht after that climate change fundraiser. I would be more sympathetic if after 10 years they had something, anything other than more protests. If they could face the truth about how crazy they have become. If they could understand just for one minute that they were only getting one side of the story by a weaponized, biased media machine that seems to delight in keeping them mentally and emotionally unhinged. If any of them had any courage whatsoever to stand up to their own party. But they're too afraid. Even Gavin Newsom is afraid. Who are they trying to convince by now with these protests? Who would be drawn in and want to vote for them? It's mostly aging baby boomers and Jen Psaki viewers. Naked grandpas on bikes, women with septum piercings calling babies parasites, and single women who shop at Erewhon and Lululemon after high priced Pilates on Sunday. Why would you want to showcase all of that madness when most Americans are just trying to get through the work week, have a beer on the weekend, maybe take a walk at sunset, maybe drive their Tesla that isn't smeared with feces or keyed down the side and hope their kid doesn't have to decide which gender to be in preschool, or God forbid, catch a glimpse of a naked appendage while coming upon a protest in the park? Or just trying to use the girl's bathroom? Why Democrats? Why the only semi reasonable one of them is John Fetterman, whom I once believed should never have run after suffering a debilitating stroke. They were doing it for a yes vote. I thought, boy, did that turn out to be wrong. And now he's their worst nightmare because he thinks for himself and isn't afraid of them. Now, according to Axios, they're trying to push him out. I'm the only Democrat in my family. I grew up in a conservative part of Pennsylvania. And I grew up and I know and I love people that voted for President Trump, but they are not fascists, they're not Nazis, they're not trying to destroy the Constitution, those things. And that's part of another thing. I refuse to call people Nazis or fascists or I would never compare anybody, anybody to Hitler and those things. And now that kinds of extreme rhetoric is going to continue, we're going to be more likely and resulting in extreme kind of outcomes and political violence and doing all these kinds of things, like Charlie Kirk. For me, all I could say is like, let people grieve, give people the space. I'm not going to use that terrible thing and that pasic assassination to make my argument and try to put out my views. It's like, my God, you know, he's a father that had his neck blown out by a bullet. And now people have forgotten. President Trump was in my state, was shot in the head. And if that would have, could you imagine where our nation would be if he was hit in the same way With Kirk? We really got to turn the temperature down and we can agree to disagree on these kinds of things. But right now, shutting down the government, I just can't take it that that's right. The only semi sane Democrat is now Persona non grata with the totalitarians, because of course he is. They punish dissent. That's why they're in this mess. Protests signal to the public that the Democrats are helpless, that they have no ability to win elections or to compromise or have any kind of rational conversations about anything, much less any plan to lead America anywhere. Their messaging for 10 years now is all or nothing. Give us what we want or will throw a fit. Listen to how insane they are with these TikTok videos. Let's be clear here. If you are going to attend the no Kings Parade 2.0, you will be perceived as antifa. I don't know how much attention you liberals and centrists and fake leftists are paying attention to what the authoritarian government is saying. But if you have a dissenting opinion about their authoritarian regimental, they are considering you to be antifa. Wearing a mask is not just for anonymity. Wearing a mask shows your understanding and solidarity with the disabled. Community. Wearing a mask shows that you understand that Covid is still alive and unwell. Wearing a mask shows that you understand that Covid or other airborne illnesses can be disabling. Wearing all black clothing makes you less discernible even in a safe sea of color. This would require you to understand color theory. But again, I will reiterate. If you are going to attend the no Kings Parade 2.0, you are going to be considered the organization of antifa. No Kings is this weekend and a protest is just a parade without a concrete action or a demand. And my demand is impeachment and removal of our fascist dictator from office while we still have the ability while we still have the constitutional protection against tyranny in place. Call your representatives and demand that they support efforts I know to impeach and remove Donald Trump from office. Can you say impeach Trump? Can you say impeach Trump? Impeach Trump. You're going to be participating in no Kings on Saturday. Do not, do not interact with counter protesters and agitators. Don't talk to them, don't go near them. Don't even look in their direction. Someone on TikTok said this earlier, but this is the best idea I've ever heard. If you run into an agitator, everybody around them needs to sit on the ground and point at them. Besties, if you're going to no Kings this weekend, I need you to leave your cell phone at home. I'm going to say that again. I need you to leave your cell phone at home. We have a lot of newly activated people. Welcome. So glad that you're here. We need you to be safe. We need you to keep other people safe. You need to arrive and depart with at least one buddy. You need to not bring your cell phone. Airplane mode is not sufficient. Turning it off is not even really sufficient anymore either. Going to the protest tomorrow and I bought myself a little frog onesie to wear. Like a frog costume. That's a zip up onesie. And I told my mom and she was like, oh, don't wear that. You're gonna draw our attention to yourself. Like, you don't a love you mom, but you don't think I'm on like 15 million watch lists already for my online footprint number two, if I get arrested in a frog onesie, that's gonna be my profile picture on everything for the next 25 years. Like, no joke, I've never been arrested. But if I get arrested and it was in a frog onesie, you bet I'm gonna be flexing that this could all be over within two weeks. We could have Donald Trump gone, everything they've done reversed. Hell, we could have a national health care system and free public college. We could have socialism if we wanted it. We would just have to stop going to work. We need a general strike. Not a little block party on Saturday. A general strike where we say, we're not going back to work until we get what we want. And it wouldn't even take everyone. It would take like 5% of us. And, and people go, oh, well, they'll just fire us. I need my job. They can't fire everyone. If everyone did it, they can't fire us. They'd have to play by our rules. We could get anything we want. You should still go to no Kings. You should. I. It's. It's important, but it's less than the bare minimum and it's not going to do a goddamn thing. Good afternoon. This is my call to anyone that is scared to go to the protest tomorrow. Remember that. This person that we're fighting against, standing up against just in general opposition, the person that claims to want America to be great again, trying to pull it back to when the pilgrims first landed here and how they took whatever they wanted. And I want to remind you all out there that unless you're a wealthy white man, you're in danger. You're in danger of losing all of your freedoms. And I know that you may think that this is dramatic, but it's not. Losing your freedom of speech, losing your right to vote. I have that pit in my stomach now, that feeling that come Saturday, no Kings. Bad things are going to happen. Bad things are going to happen. The way they're stirring up the rhetoric, calling, you know, calling the peaceful protesters, left wing extremists and all this stuff. I don't know how anyone voted for this. I don't. I don't know how you voted for any of this. And if you're okay with any of this, because an American, you should be terrified right now and disgusted and disappointed and hurt and I don't know how many other other feelings, seeing where our country, the Constitution, has been trampled upon, people getting ripped out of their homes, Gestapo, SS style. I. I don't. They shun anyone who votes for Trump. They treat the other half of the country like toxic waste. They have no way to attract new voters who would want anything to do with them. Sure, they still have lots of money and enthusiastic, psychotic, delusional voters, not to mention the legacy media and Hollywood. Here is Jean Smart Hi. I urge everyone to try to find a no Kings protest in their community, a peaceful protest, and join on October 18. The current resident of the White House seems to think that he has everybody fooled, but he has made it abundantly clear that he admires dictators and wishes to be one. And ironically, this country was founded on our rebellion against having a king. So it's ironic. So the most patriotic thing that you can do is say no kings. No kings. A king does not belong in the United States of America. So please let a peaceful no kings protest near you. Thank you. In their imaginary world, Trump is a king, a dictator and a fascist, when in reality he's just the guy they could not destroy or defeat. It's never been about Trump. America is exhausted. Ten years of the 19th nervous breakdowns the left has been having over Trump, only to lose to him again in 2024 and probably to JD Vance in 2028 and 2032 is enough. The Democrats are doubling down on the very thing that makes them so repellent to voters. Helplessness and temper tantrums are no way to lead anyone any. Thank you for listening to my podcast, sashastone.com. i hope you have a great weekend. And remember to thine own self be true affairs.
