The State Department on Saturday announced that Hamas could soon violate the ceasefire agreement by attacking Gazans.

“The United States has informed the guarantor nations of the Gaza peace agreement of credible reports indicating an imminent ceasefire violation by Hamas against the people of Gaza,” the State Department said in a statement.

“This planned attack against Palestinian civilians would constitute a direct and grave violation of the ceasefire agreement and undermine the significant progress achieved through mediation efforts. The guarantors demand Hamas uphold its obligations under the ceasefire terms.”

The message goes on to note that if the attack does occur, “measures will be taken to protect the people of Gaza and preserve the integrity of the ceasefire.”

It’s not clear what Hamas might be planning. The State Department did not respond to a request for comment.

The days since the release of the 20 living Israeli hostages have been marked by celebration, as well as anxiety, with reports of Hamas executing members of rival groups and citizens accused of collaborating with Israel.

In one widely-publicized video, individuals who appear to be members of Hamas drag eight men into a public space and execute them in front of a crowd.

Additionally, Hamas has openly resisted disarming — a key component of the 20-point peace plan. President Donald Trump responded to Hamas’s apparent refusal to lay down its weapons by stating that if the terror organization won’t disarm of its own volition, “we will disarm them.”

The president made the consequences even more clear in a recent Truth Social post: “If Hamas continues to kill people in Gaza, which was not the Deal, we will have no choice but to go in and kill them.”

On Saturday, millions (allegedly) of American leftists participated in “No Kings” rallies, the second day this year alone — the first one being in June — on which leftists have marched en masse against President Donald Trump and his administration.

While the leftists marched with their poorly-made signs, social media users observed and did what they does best — mock the mockable and astutely tear apart their cause.

Former Fox News host Brit Hume summed up the irony of “No Kings” best:

The “No Kings” rallies are mostly a protest against a man who sought power 3 times through democratic elections and enacted his major agenda item by majority vote of democratically elected members of Congress. Some king.

— Brit Hume (@brithume) October 18, 2025

As did Blaire White, who noted that if Trump were truly a king, the “No Kings” rallies likely wouldn’t be allowed:

“No Kings!” and the man was democratically elected, won the popular vote, and is allowing you to protest him.

— BLAIRE WHITE (@MsBlaireWhite) October 18, 2025

Others, like Robby Starbuck, pointed out the hypocrisy of attending a “No Kings” rally while having supported the Biden administration’s draconian COVID mandates:

It’s peak dark comedy that the people doing No Kings protests this weekend are the same people who told us we MUST get experimental shots to work, that we MUST wear masks to fly and that our grandparents MUST die alone for the greater good. Have you ever seen less self awareness?

— Robby Starbuck (@robbystarbuck) October 16, 2025

Rep. Claudia Tenney (R-NY) made a similar comparison:

To everyone marching at the “No Kings” protest:

You supported Biden’s rule-by-decree presidency.

You defended censorship, mandates, and lawless power grabs.

You’re not against kings, you’re mad yours lost his crown.

— Rep. Claudia Tenney (@RepTenney) October 18, 2025

Still others noted the irony of “No Kings” protesters supporting a political party that coronated a presidential nominee without a single primary:

Having a “no kings” protest when you voted for the party that hand-selected Kamala Harris to be their nominee without earning a single vote is peak irony

— Kaitlin Bennett (@KaitMarieox) October 17, 2025

Imagine chanting “no kings” while backing the party that crowned Kamala Harris without her earning a single vote.

The jokes write themselves. I guess kings aren’t allowed, but queens get a pass.

“NO KINGS!” says the party that did not let a single voter pick their nominee in 2024

One observer pointed out that all the energy expended on the rallies could have gone to better causes, such as helping the homeless:

No Kings protesters walking past hundreds of Portland homeless and our addicted. With all the energy they put into protesting why don’t they spend some of their time volunteering and ending this humanitarian crisis? Filmed by my homeless friend @johnmanpdx on IG pic.twitter.com/h15hiWxeaI

There were also remarks about how the protests are allegedly rife with astroturfing, and that the real “No Kings” day was July 4, 1776:

Happy No Kings day to all who (are paid to) celebrate pic.twitter.com/J3l0AOZjYh

— DC_Draino (@DC_Draino) October 18, 2025

As the Democrats hit the streets today protesting law-and-order.

We want to remind you: The only official “No Kings” protest was on July 4, 1776.

Nothing says “we care about democracy” like showing up to a rally sponsored by communists.

Lastly, Catturd wrapped the story up with an astute observation referencing the most recent day Americans decided they wanted a president and not a hand-selected empty suit:
