Here’s a roundup of today’s no-king prosts from all over California.
A look at today’s No Kings protests across California, from Los Angeles to Redding.
The Army is investigating after one of the military helicopters appeared to fly near Kid Rock’s Nashville home to pick him up, according to a video posted on social media by the conservative musician.
A video showed the country’s rap rocker saluting and applauding a military helicopter flying by next to the outdoor pool of his South White House, which is modeled after the presidential mansion in Washington.
Kid Rock, an outspoken conservative, captioned the video: “This is a (expletive) level of respect for brains that the Governor of California will never know.” “God bless America and all those who made the ultimate sacrifice to protect her.”
The post was an apparent attack on Democratic California Governor Gavin Newsom, who “banned” Kid Rock from the state last month in a post on X.
Army spokesman Maj. Montrell Russell said in a statement to USA TODAY that the Army has begun an “administrative review” of the incident.
“The Army is aware of a video circulating online that appears to show an AH 64 Apache helicopter operating near a residence in the Nashville area,” Russell said.
“Military aviators must adhere to strict safety standards, professionalism, and established flight rules. Administrative reviews are underway to evaluate the mission and confirm compliance with regulations and airspace requirements. If violations are found, appropriate action will be taken.”
Kid Rock posted the video to X on March 28th. It was a day when protesters gathered in thousands of cities across the country for the “No Kings” protests against President Trump’s efforts to dramatically expand presidential powers. According to News Channel 5, Apache helicopters also flew over a similar protest in Nashville.
The singer is a longtime friend of President Trump. He recently appeared in a video with Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., in which the two wear blue jeans, work out together and drink raw milk.
Kid Rock also hosted a halftime show for the conservative group Turning Point USA, which was marketed as an “All American” alternative to Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl halftime show.
