House Speaker Mike Johnson and Senate Majority Leader John Thune argue that Democrats are more focused on appeasing their liberal base than negotiating a reopening deal.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"446\" data-end=\"734\">\u201cFor many of our Democrat colleagues, tomorrow is about creating a spectacle,\u201d Johnson said Friday, accusing Democrats of stalling to align with anti-Trump demonstrators. He claimed that protest organizers are encouraging the shutdown and have \u201cdistributed talking points cheering it on.\u201d<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"736\" data-end=\"1108\">The \u201cNo Kings\u201d coalition, which led nationwide protests denouncing authoritarianism and the Trump administration\u2019s policies, dismissed Johnson\u2019s remarks. In a statement, they said, \u201cSpeaker Johnson is running out of excuses for keeping the government shut down,\u201d adding that instead of helping working families, he is targeting Americans exercising their right to protest.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1110\" data-end=\"1419\">Johnson labeled the demonstration a \u201chate America rally,\u201d accusing the organizers of representing \u201cMarxists, socialists, antifa advocates, anarchists, and the pro-Hamas wing of the far left.\u201d He warned that the movement rejects American values like individual freedom, limited government, and the rule of law.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1421\" data-end=\"1891\">Critics of the protests noted that Trump\u2019s executive actions continue to face legal challenges, contradicting claims of authoritarianism. Still, the \u201cNo Kings\u201d organizers allege the administration is attacking immigrant families, undermining democratic institutions, and increasing inequality. New polling indicates rising public frustration with Democrats over the shutdown, which GOP leaders claim is being prolonged to score political points with anti-Trump factions.<\/p>\n<div class=\"twitter-tweet twitter-tweet-rendered\"><iframe id=\"twitter-widget-0\" class=\"\" title=\"X Post\" src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/embed\/Tweet.html?dnt=true&amp;embedId=twitter-widget-0&amp;features=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%3D%3D&amp;frame=false&amp;hideCard=false&amp;hideThread=false&amp;id=1979591430805811321&amp;lang=en&amp;origin=https%3A%2F%2Fconservativebrief.com%2Fkings-gop-96022%2F&amp;sessionId=1a604a7fde4cb016f501f7b0a539c920a81b4d1b&amp;theme=light&amp;widgetsVersion=2615f7e52b7e0%3A1702314776716&amp;width=550px\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-tweet-id=\"1979591430805811321\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>GOP Blames \u201cNo Kings\u201d Protests for Prolonging Government Shutdown Republican leaders say Saturday\u2019s \u201cNo Kings\u201d protests are fueling Democratic resistance to ending the ongoing government shutdown.
