On Saturday March 28, 2026 the second No Kings protests took place all over the United States as well as outside of the U.S.. Somewhere between 3300 and 3500 protests happened, and included more than 8 million people! In Santa Rosa, California alone there were estimates of between 10,000-15,000 people who came out to show disapproval of the orange buffoon and his idiot clowns in the White House. The protest was filled with smiles, music and plenty of unity and hope. I thought I'd never see so many people out in this little city, for one cause of any kind, but on this day we were all there, unpaid and hating the trump regime for free! Last years No Kings brought out thousands and this year was definitely more than last. There's a glimmer of HOPE IN THE AIR! These protests happened in 95% of the country. There was also huge protests in London, England, Canada, France, Germany, the Netherlands, and all over Australia too! It seems that the world hates trump and his cabinet of bootlickers, as much as the American citizens do! Some of the speakers at the protests included Bernie Sanders, Tim Walz and many more prominent political figures as well as the BOSS, Bruce Springsteen. Bruce sang his ballad of Mineapolis after being introduced by Tim Walz, in the Twin Cities. A beautiful moment for democracy indeed! I never thought I could love Springsteen more than I already have for decades, but I do. With the Boss's calm, intelligent 'down home' demenor and his talent for songwriting, this song he penned after ICE murdered Renee Good and Alex Pretti is an emotionally charged, tearful and heartfelt song against this horrible regime and ICE.

Hopefully sooner rather than later the orange wanna be dictator will be in prison, along with all his goons. Personally I hope he gets convicted of ALL of his crimes, AND the most obvious one, the cover up of the century....his pedophilia with his buddy Jeffrey Epstein. If you're not a believer of this, and like more details, please google Katie Johnson (one of many of his victims) and her account of how trump raped and beat her when she was a child. From over three decades ago. It's a detailed account of what she experienced. And these accounts of her experiencing trump raping and beating her is deeply sickening. Beware if you read the details. She was interviewed four times, 35 years ago by the FBI. Three of the four were reportedly hidden until now. Johnson was paid for her silence back then, along with 27 other children ranging from 9 years of age. From the way it looks...it's pretty obvious that many members of the administration were also involved in those dark and dirty Epstein activities tormenting and raping children. That's why they are doing everything to deflect, including causing wars. But we all know this! It's not like it's a secret...Because it's all happening in plain sight. All the above and way more is in the news daily. Those crimes, and how much money he's stealing from the American taxpayers is absoultely a stunner. And this too all in plain sight! But seeing how the two sides of the 'news' are so different, it may just be broadcasted on the news I read and watch? I assume Fox Entertainment, Newsmax, OANN, Breitbart etc. are not discussing these topics. This is a very dangerous time we are living in. The leader of this country is a narcissistic toddler with the power to literally kill the entire globe...and how are we allowing this to happen? Not one person is taking away grandpas car keys! No one! I may be naive here, but that's the part that I simply don't understand.

Nevertheless I try to remain hopeful, with the help of my friends, and surrounding myself with good people as much as possible. I'm grateful for the amazing people who continue to come out with their protest signs and love in their hearts. Hoping for a radical change in todays' dishonest, criminal cult behavior known as maga.

Now more than ever....The Music Soup team wishes to thank you all for reading. And for showing up for each other in these dark times. It seems that where ever that small brained orange man goes, darkness and death follow. We had this already in 2016-2020. With him at the steering wheel with Covid. We lost 40% more people due to trumps mis-handling of Covid. (published in The Lancet in February 2021). Roughly 188,000 deaths in 2020 alone that might have been prevented if trump wasn't leading the ship! Read that again. Please take care of each other. Laugh as much as possible. Be kind. Reconnect with that long lost person, because you never know how great it may turn out. And remember...time is short and grows shorter by the day. Love each other. And as always...support live music!.
