DAVID MARCUS: At crafty No Kings rallies, the participants are the puppets

David MarcusSun, March 29, 2026 at 3:50 PM UTC

I'll let you in on a little secret: In the performing arts, the most annoying people are puppeteers. This is because they make you look at their absurd creation of papier-mâché and then make you pretend it's the most important thing you have ever seen.

This is precisely what the "No Kings" protesters who take to American streets every few months represent. Even the ones holding insulting and crude signs instead of puppets demand to be taken seriously when they are anything but.

The very name of these protests is a farcical facade, a false mask of faux outrage, because President Donald Trump is not a king. It is an argument absurd on its face, because, trust me, if Trump were king, the GOP Senate would have broken the filibuster and passed the Save America Act by now.

If Trump were king, every Immigration Customs and Enforcement civilian worker would have been paid over the last month, instead of pinching pennies.

I also imagine King Donald would have gotten a few more of his judicial appointments approved.

The notion that Trump just does whatever he wants is ridiculous. The man can't use the men's room without some Obama-appointed federal judge trying to block his access.

Let's take a look at some of the insane bloviations that the nation was treated to during Saturday's cross-country protests.

500 Groups With $3B In Revenues Are Behind The #Nokings Protests And Communist Call For 'Revolution'

Here's what Hollywood legend-turned old man yelling at clouds Robert De Niro had to say at the No Kings Day event in New York: "He can't do all the f---ed-up things that he's been doing without the collusion of Congress and the goons in his administration."

Protesters gather in Washington, D.C., for the No Kings Day protest on Oct. 18, 2025.

That doesn't sound like much of an almighty king to me.

How about the congresswoman from Somalia, I'm sorry, Minneapolis, Ilhan Omar? This was her oddball take: "I could have never imagined the day would come when we were staring down at this kind of creeping authoritarianism."

'No Kings' Movement And What It Wants: Inside The Message Driving Saturday's Nationwide Protests

Once again, the nature of this so-called authoritarianism wasn't explained.

And speaking of Somalis, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz chose to center them in his remarks, insisting, for some reason, that "we'll never leave the side of Somali Minnesotans… your great-grandchildren will be here when that orange clown is in the dustbin of history."

This, of course, assumes that there is room in the dustbin of history next to Walz's own political career, which was destroyed when he let his beloved Somali fraudsters steal billions from taxpayers.

Michael Shellenberger: The Left Is Getting People Killed

Let's get back to this idea of puppets for a moment, because the No Kings protesters no longer just hold puppets, often of Trump doing something disgusting. They have literally now transformed into the puppets themselves.

The inflatable frog costume made fashionable in violent Portland anti-ICE riots, and a nod to the furry sexual fetish, have now become ubiquitous at No Kings rallies. The message of the costume is "How can something so silly and fun be dangerous?"

The rather obvious answer to that question is that when Democrats and the Left act like petulant children and refuse to fully fund Immigration and Customs Enforcement, innocent Americans like Loyola University student Sheridan Gorman are murdered by illegal immigrants.

David Marcus: Delusional Dems ' Dancing Pet Frogs Are Antifa Thugs

You never see any sad inflatable frogs at the funerals of our fallen.

In the end, everything about these No Kings protests is fake. Everything is a mask, everything is a puppet, because the central claim, that we are ruled by King Donald, isn't just hyperbolic, it is divorced from reality.

Sadly, notwithstanding the fictional nature of the central complaint of the No Kings protests, the Left does understand the value of big, in-person crowds, and they will continue to not just garner biased national media attention, but will also fire up the Democrats' base.

This is why the news that the Republicans are moving closer to a midterm convention, with reports homing in on Dallas as a location, is welcome for conservatives.

Though it is not in their nature, conservatives must have a greater footprint on the streets, and a convention is the perfect way to achieve that.

In the meantime, expect the inane puppetry of progressive protest to continue unabated, and for the puppets and the protesters to grow more and more angry and unhinged. Because as long as Donald Trump is president, crown, scepter and orb or not, these people will continue losing their minds.

"Hearst Magazines and Yahoo may earn commission or revenue on some items through these links."

Anya Taylor-Joy upped the ante on trackside style, stepping out in a striking head-to-toe leather look at the F1 Grand Prix in Japan today. The actor, who's currently in Japan promoting the Super Mario Galaxy Movie, attended the race alongside her co-stars Jack Black and Chris Pratt.

Departing from the more feminine, romantic style she typically gravitates to on the red carpet, Taylor-Joy wore a bold, colorful leather corset with red, yellow, and blue piping and a zip-up front. The vintage piece is from Jean-Paul Gaultier's Spring 1991 collection.

Doubling down on the leather moment, she styled the statement corset top with low-rise black leather pants for an edgy, moto-inspired vibe. She topped off the look with strappy red leather heels.

While at the event, Taylor-Joy was also spotted alongside Formula 1 champion Lewis Hamilton. The two were photographed walking together ahead of the race, with Hamilton opting for a more relaxed outfit—wearing an oversized red Puma hoodie and loose-fitting dark-wash denim. Notably absent from the outing was Hamilton's girlfriend, Kim Kardashian, who is also currently in Japan, but didn't attend today's race.

Taylor-Joy's dramatic leather moment marked a sharp contrast to her look not even 24 hours earlier. Yesterday, at the Kyoto premiere of the Super Mario Galaxy Movie, she embraced full-on fantasy dressing. Channeling the femininity of her iconic character Princess Peach, she stunned in a sculptural Dior gown adorned with delicate pink cherry blossoms.

The soft, romantic ensemble embodied spring—and highlighted her ability to seamlessly shift between style identities in a matter of hours.

ABOARD THE CRESCENT (AP) — There's something melodic about watching the sun rise over a rural stillness broken only by the rhythms of steel wheels on tracks. Or so we tell ourselves.

In this case, being aboard a train at all owed more to politics than poetry.

Congress and Donald Trump were mired in their latest budget stalemate, one rooted in the Republican president's immigration crackdown and the tactics of federal forces he has sent to U.S. cities. But this impasse has upended a foundational constant of American life today: easy air travel.

In Atlanta, my hometown airport, cheerfully marketed as the world's busiest, had descended into organized chaos. Unpaid federal employees called out from work, leaving a diminished security staff to screen travelers frustrated by hourslong waits in line. I wanted to get to Washington for the NCAA basketball tournament. So I eliminated the risk of a missed flight and booked the train overnight and into game day across a 650-mile route.

In this fraught moment in U.S. politics, I slowed down and thought about things we take for granted. Who ever ponders the conveniences of that 20th-century innovation, the airplane, that makes 21st-century hustle possible? We book and board. An unconscious, first-world flex of modernity. It's even rarer to grapple with the inconvenience.

My decision had taken me further back, to the 19th century and another defining innovation: the long-distance train.

A 14½-hour weekend train ride is time aplenty to appreciate how completely politics, economics, social strife and fights over identity and belonging have always affected the order of our lives, including how, when and where we move around in these United States. But Amtrak's Crescent also allowed me to see the expanse of our collective experience.

I traversed the urban, suburban and rural breadth of East Coast America. I learned how other travelers came aboard. And in that, I found the portrait of people, past and present, who refuse to be as paralyzed as some of their elected leaders.

Convenience on the railways

There is little glamour late night in a crowded Amtrak station. Children are up past bedtime and tended by frazzled parents. Older adults struggle with luggage and stairs.

Airports are not red-carpet affairs either, of course. But there is a certain cache to Delta's Atlanta-Washington flights. They typically take about two hours gate to gate. They often are slotted at a midpoint gate of the concourse nearest the main terminal. That is almost certainly a nod to members of Congress who use it — but who have lost some airline perks during this extended patrial shutdown.

In normal circumstances I can get from my front porch to Capitol Hill or downtown in as little as 4½ hours. Security lines these days could at least double my overall air travel time.

The train is still longer, and time is money, we are taught. But certainty has value, too, even if it means at 11:29 p.m. departure. And at the Amtrak station, there were no standstill lines, no Transportation Security Administration agents, no ICE agents as stand-ins.

Passengers who arrived mere minutes before departure made it on board and found seats quickly — assigned in boarding order, not predetermined zones that yield jammed aisles. There's no in-seat service or satellite TV. But even coach seats, the lowest Amtrak tier, are as spacious as airline first-class – and there is Wi-Fi, so it's not the 19th century or even 20th century after all.

On board, I heard one crew member joke, "I'm no TSA agent."

The pathways of history

As a boy in rural Alabama, I counted train cars and wondered where they were headed. I've since read diary entries and letters from my grandmother and her sisters recounting World War II-era weekend trips to Atlanta.

The South's largest city has a historical hook, too. Originally named "Terminus," Atlanta developed in the antebellum era as a critical intersection of north-south and east-west rail routes. That is what drew Gen. William Tecumseh Sherman for one of the Civil War's seminal campaigns that helped defeat the Confederacy.

A century after the Civil War, Delta chose Atlanta for its headquarters rather than Birmingham, Alabama, which was the larger city as of the 1960 census. The company's decision was tied up in tax breaks for the airline, named for its crop duster origins in the Mississippi Delta region. According to some interpretations, Delta's decision was made easier because of the more overt racism of Alabama's and Birmingham's leaders as they defended Jim Crow — a code that, among other acts, allowed states to segregate the passenger trains that predated Amtrak.

On this night, I heard many languages and accents, notable given the role that immigrant labor played in building the U.S. rail system and especially striking now with immigration — legal and illegal — at the forefront in Washington, my destination. I saw faces that reflected U.S. pluralism, a different mix from what my grandmother and aunts would have seen a lifetime ago.

The array of voices celebrated the freedom and ease of rail travel. So did Agatha Grimes and her friends after they boarded in Greensboro, North Carolina, as part of a long weekend trip to celebrate her 62nd birthday.

"I got stuck in the Atlanta airport last week," Grimes said, as her group laughed together in the dining car. "It's just nuts."

Beretta Nunnally, a self-described "train veteran" who organized their trip, said, "There's no worry about parking. No checking bags. You come to the station, you get where you going, and you come home."

An era for planes, trains and automobiles

Still, that is not as easy in the United States as it once was.

Just as politics, economics and subsidies helped grow U.S. railroads, those factors diminished the network as auto manufacturers, oil companies, roadbuilders and, finally, airline manufacturers and airlines commanded favor from politicians and attention from consumers.

Riding hours across rural areas, I noticed the junkyards where kudzu and chain-link fencing framed rows of rusted automobiles. I saw the farmland and equipment that helps feed cities and the rest of the nation. I awoke to see the night lights of office towers in Charlotte, North Carolina, and its NFL stadium. I saw vibrant county seats — and I thought of countless other towns like them that are not thriving as they sit disconnected from passenger rail and far from the Eisenhower-era interstate system that we crossed multiple times on our way.

In each setting, voters — conservatives, liberals, the extremes and betweens — have chosen their representatives, senators and a president who now set the nation's course.

When I arrived in Washington, I paused to enjoy Union Station's grand hall and its Beaux Arts appeal, and I lamented how much splendor has been lost because so many striking U.S. terminals have been razed. I stepped outside and looked up at the Capitol dome.

While I had slept, the Senate managed a bipartisan deal to fund all of the Department of Homeland Security except immigration enforcement. As I continued northward, House Republican leaders rejected it. The stalemate continued.

I was a weary traveler but renewed citizen. I had a game to get to. And the train rolled on.

Wakeup call: Landmark social media ruling exposes addictive algorithms as teen survey highlights dangers Taylor PenleySun, March 29, 2026 at 3:27 PM UTC 0 A Colorado teenager is sounding the alarm on social media's impact on young girls after surveying more than 1,000 peers nationwide and finding strong links between platform use and rising rates of anxiety, depression and sleep deprivation.

Wake-up call: Landmark social media ruling exposes addictive algorithms as teen survey highlights dangers

Taylor PenleySun, March 29, 2026 at 3:27 PM UTC

A Colorado teenager is sounding the alarm on social media's impact on young girls after surveying more than 1,000 peers nationwide and finding strong links between platform use and rising rates of anxiety, depression and sleep deprivation.

"I saw that social media was just a driving factor of all mental health issues, anxiety, depression," 17-year-old Hallie Zilberman told Fox News on Sunday.

Zilberman surveyed over 1,000 teenage girls nationwide to better understand today's mental health crisis. The results revealed some common contributors to negative mental health, one being social media, which prompted her to delete her own Snapchat and Instagram.

"I decided that I can have agency with my own life, and I can do what I can and make my own life better," she said.

Zilberman's survey results detailed the swath of mental health struggles teen girls face in today's world.

Approximately 60% reported frequently feeling overwhelmed, anxious or under pressure to be perfect. Nearly half reportedly considered self-harm in the past six months, while nearly 45% reported not feeling physically healthy and approximately 32% said they lacked a trusted adult they could consult.

"A lot of girls struggle with body image, and I saw that in my results, and I saw the struggles with body images tied to almost every single mental health outcome," Zilberman shared.

Big Tech's Tobacco Moment Is Here — And The Truth About Harming Kids Is Out

Shelby Knox, Amy Neville, Mary Rodee, Laura Marquez-Garrett, Sarah Gardner and Lennon Torres, families and supporters of victims, reacted outside Los Angeles Superior Court on Mar. 25, in Los Angeles after a jury found Meta and YouTube negligent in a lawsuit alleging their platforms contributed to harmful behaviors among young users.

The data collected also indicated 52% of respondents were sleep-deprived – an issue Zilberman linked to late nights spent scrolling on social media.

That issue alone, she added, can contribute to a cascade of other problems.

"Sleep deprivation is also linked to higher stress, lower happiness, worse mental health overall," she told "Fox & Friends Weekend" co-host Charlie Hurt.

"And when kids are staying up every night scrolling, that's also a [negative] function of social media as well."

Zilberman's findings come as Silicon Valley faces a legal reckoning, after a landmark court decision found Meta and Google liable for designing features that contribute to compulsive use among young users.

Both tech giants have disputed the verdict and pledged to appeal.

"We respectfully disagree with the verdict and are evaluating our legal options," a Meta spokesperson said shortly after the verdict.

José Castañeda, a spokesperson for Google, told FOX Business the company disagreed with the verdict and planned to appeal.

"This case misunderstands YouTube, which is a responsibly built streaming platform, not a social media site," he said.

Julia Roberts flashes her $20 million smile as Vivian, the working woman with a heart of gold who goes from street to chic.

Roberts told EW in 1991 that she almost lost out on *Pretty Woman* when Disney took over the film. "They were going to have Garry Marshall direct it. And at that point I no longer had anything to do with it," she said. "Garry said to me that half the people at Disney were concerned that you couldn't dress me up — that I could have on jeans and look sort of dirty or whatever but you couldn't dress me up — and the other half were saying the opposite."

After proving them wrong, *Pretty Woman *made Roberts a global superstar and earned her a second Oscar nomination. Following box office successes with *Sleeping With the Enemy *(1991) and *The Pelican Brief *(1993), she starred in a string of rom-com hits like *My Best Friend's Wedding *(1997),* Notting Hill *(1999),* *and — her reunion with Gere and Marshall — *Runaway Bride* (1999).

The A-lister added Oscar winner to her list of achievements with the drama *Erin Brockovich *(2000) and was nominated again for *August: Osage County *(2013). She returned to rom-coms alongside George Clooney in *Ticket to Paradise *(2022) and earned a Golden Globe nomination for her role in Luca Guadagnino's college drama, *After the Hunt* (2025).

Roberts has been in several high-profile relationships with actors like Kiefer Sutherland, Jason Patric, and Benjamin Bratt. She was married to country singer Lyle Lovett from 1993 to 1995 and later wed cinematographer Daniel Moder in 2002. The couple has three children together.

Richard Gere (Edward Lewis)

Richard Gere plays Edward, the cold, dashing businessman who reluctantly falls for charismatic Vivian.

"I'd never done anything so openly charming," Gere told EW in 2012 about starring in *Pretty Woman*. "Julia had already been cast. She came to see me in New York and I still hadn't decided [to do the film]. You couldn't meet this girl and not fall in love with her. We got Garry on the phone. She was sitting across from my desk and she starts writing on a piece of paper. She shoves it toward me and it says, 'Please do this movie.' It was like, 'How can you say no?'"

Following *Pretty Woman*'s box office success, the actor had a career resurgence throughout the '90s, culminating with the title of PEOPLE's Sexiest Man Alive in 1999. In addition to his reunion with Roberts in *Runaway Bride *(1999), he starred in the thrillers *Final Analysis *(1992), *Primal Fear *(1996), and *Unfaithful *(2002). Gere leaped to musicals with *Chicago *(2002) and danced away with a Golden Globe and SAG award for his pitch-perfect performance as slick defense attorney Billy Flynn. He took on a rare TV role in 2024 on the Paramount+ series *The Agency*.

Gere, a practicing Buddhist, has publicly supported several philanthropic causes throughout his career including HIV/AIDS awareness and human rights organizations like the International Campaign for Tibet. He was married to supermodel Cindy Crawford from 1991 to 1995, and *Law & Order *star Carey Lowell from 2002 to 2016. He shares a son with Lowell.

He and his third wife, activist Alejandra Silva, have been married since 2018 and share two children. The couple moved to Spain in 2024 to be closer to her family, and Gere has said he doesn't miss Hollywood.

"When I hear the word Hollywood, the first thing I think is that it is something very foreign to me," he said in a chat about the move with *Vanity Fair *Spain. "I have not lived in California for a quarter of a century, nor have I filmed a movie in Los Angeles during that period."

Jason Alexander (Philip Stuckey)

Jason Alexander tries to drive a wedge between Edward and Vivian as sleazy lawyer Philip Stuckey.

The actor told PEOPLE in 2020 that "it seemed like Julia had a little crush on Richard, which makes sense. I had a little crush on Richard. Richard's very hard to not have a little crush on."

Between 1992 and 1998, Alexander earned eight consecutive Emmy nominations, seven for his iconic work as George Costanza on *Seinfeld* and one for a guest appearance on the HBO series *Dream On*. Despite these achievements, he has never taken home the prize.

The New Jerseyan first worked with Garry Marshall in a Los Angeles production of the play *Wrong Turn at Lungfish *before landing her breakout role in Steven Soderbergh's *Sex, Lies, and Videotape** *(1989).

After *Pretty Woman*, she starred in the movies *Quigley Down Under *(1990), *Under Suspicion *(1991), and the miniseries *The Stand*.

Héctor Elizondo plays Barney, the compassionate manager of the Regent Beverly Wilshire Hotel who also serves as Vivian's fairy godfather. Despite only having around 10 minutes of screen time, the role nabbed him a Golden Globe nomination.

Elizondo began his career in the early-'60s, eventually appearing in the Garry Marshall comedy *Young Doctors in Love *(1982). In fact, following this first collaboration, Marshall cast Elizondo in every one of his films.

Speaking with PEOPLE for *Pretty Woman*'s 30th anniversary, the actor reflected on the scandalous premise. "I said, 'Garry, this is a Disney movie? This is very dark.' And he says, 'Don't worry, Hector; we'll make it nice. We'll make it fun.' And I said, 'Good luck with that, pal.'"

"He let us improvise, and I was just on cloud nine...I originally went in there and auditioned for one of the shop ladies that's mean to Vivian. Then [Garry] says, 'Can you read this other part instead?' And I did, and it was thrilling."
