JOIN THE CIRCUS to upstage the DC CLOWNS!

When you elect clowns, they don’t become leaders. The country becomes a circus. 🤡

Let’s change the narrative. WE BECOME THE CIRCUS, and get rid of the CLOWNS.

We are all fed up with this charade🤪, so let’s keep talking and have some fun with it!

Want to go subversive with me?

I am strategizing and planning (memes, cartoons, costumes, smart sayings, limericks, and images that we (all protesters) can share to make this a great Carnival of the CLOWNS, where we name them and exploit humor to mock them. 

My two favorite memes from the May 5 protest were mine, “Dump Putins Puppet”, and a photo of the big ass playing tennis…saying, “DOES THIS ASS MAKE MY COUNTRY LOOK SMALL?”

So let’s keep talking and have some fun with it! Want to go subversive with me? 

What if I held a party for making up jokes and memes??!  
*Location sent with confirmed reservations. 

😄👍🏼🙃🥸🥳😂😝😍😎😫

Being a crafty woman, 😉 I have lots of materials for signs, posters and costumes. So do many of us!

We could each hold a house party and invite friends, or we could go big and use public meeting areas for multiple events to fire up the company. I think of places like the Broad Room, an art studio, outdoor park, a parlor, a pub.

Creating the circus featuring the clowns in DC would be fun way to get crazy energized with our combined talents for laughter,  community and creativity.

It would be fun to brainstorm with you!

Here is one possible outline of the CIRCUS PARTY PLANS

Party 1. Make jokes and keep on laughing. Brainstorm comedy and tragedy of the current administration~
BET THIS CONVERSATION IS ALREADY HAPPENING - in daily and weekly media, online forums, social media, all kinds of web sites. We should mine that rich content and share it around for inspiration. Maybe one could  mine that field with the help of AI?

2. Come ready to dream up funny cartoons, nicknames and images of the clowns themselves. Sketch cartoons,, draw posters, make collages ( this is my field), plan costumes and themes to create laughter.

3. Bring materials or use what we have collected for sharing. A hands-on MAKERS party to create and share posters, practice witty comments, survey costumes and create little live action scenes to attract media coverage, and LAUGHALOT.

4. Hat Party… Bring a hat or wig to decorate with memes to our kick out the clowns … and feel free to wear them anytime!

 Use memes costumes, posters and jokes to also bring out our local issues on parade. We have lots to celebrate and we won’t let them kill our celebrations of (ooooh… ) Diversity!!!
Think: Juneteenth, flag day, Father’s Day, Pride month, summer solstice, and Independence Day, celebrating the time when we kicked out the KING and became a democratic republic. 

THE MOST EFECTIVE MESSAGES WILL BE

Funny- laughter is good medicine!

Short- catches attention

Colorful - noisy, visible

Smart, but not too profound ( some people have shallow minds)
 Keep it short and simple.

Original- we represent The People of the USA. That means we have millions of ways to represent ourselves.

Biting at narcissus- image? 

Moralism is okay too, but pedantic.

5. Play these jokes and riddles with everybody so we can LAUGH again, together 😂

On June 14, Donald Trump will honor himself with a four-mile military parade in our nation’s capitol. Trump’s tacky parade was inspired by dictators he idolizes, and will cost taxpayers nearly $100 million. 

Organizer and strategist Daniel Hunter has written that “Humor is important for our psyches — and to take fascists down a notch[…] Humor is key for morale and exposing the vulnerability of the strongman image.” This is where the ridiculous meets the resistance—and where the future is on the line.

June 14 is our chance to reflect the absurdity of the MAGA regime and the clowns who lead it. To meet this moment, Women’s March will host community circuses nationwide—bold, creative actions that mirror the chaos MAGA has sown across the country. Together, we’ll set a national record for the most circuses held in a single day while we simultaneously refuse to celebrate a petty clown who desperately wants to be seen as strong. We won’t stop until we build the country we all deserve.
