“Honk Honk” Was An Antisemitic Meme Long Before The Convoy Started Using It
While the phrase was parroted by many who were not in the know, it is being leveraged by neo-Nazis who seek to introduce it into mainstream discourse – both for the lulz and as a political strategy.

When I moved to rural Washington, I was worried about living where a lot of MAGAts roam. The #NoKings protest blew my mind. Of the ~70K who live in my area, 17K showed up to stand against Rumpus & his shitastic regime. 24% of the population in a rural area. Take note, #USCongress.

Senator Ted Cruz posted a dramatic video of LAPD cars on fire with the caption “this… is… not… peaceful.” What he didn’t mention? The footage was from 2020, not 2025. His post on X falsely implied it was current, part of a broader effort to spread lies and manufacture a crisis.

The correct way to connect the authoritarian presence in LA and the Big Beautiful Bill is that the bill gives the government the resources to do this in dozens of cities at once. So if you don't like what's happening in LA, it's coming to your town if the bill passes.

I don't care if these monstrous ICE raids are a "federal operation". This is authoritarian violence, plain and simple. Just because Stephen Miller has kidnapping quotas for brown people he doesn't want to see on the street doesn't mean we have to think it's okay.
