Musk slams ‘puppetmasters’ after protesters struggle to explain why they call Trump a ‘fascist’ in viral video
Elon Musk slammed the alleged «puppetmasters» behind anti-Trump demonstrations this weekend after viral video showed protesters struggling to explain why they believe President Donald Trump is a «fascist.»
«The problem is the puppetmasters, not the puppets, as the latter have no idea why they are even there,» Musk posted to X on Sunday accompanied by video footage of protesters stumbling over what issues they have with Trump.
«He just does everything he wants… He’s a convicted felon, you know, that’s all I know,» one protester in the video said after tripping over why he believes Trump is a «fascist,» while holding a sign reading, «The Fascist Trump Regime Must Go.» The footage was recorded by Ted Goodman, a political strategist who launched a livestream program with former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani, on Saturday in Washington, D.C.
«One of the things is he’s trying to control the media,» another protester in the video responded when asked for evidence Trump is allegedly a «fascist.»

«Doesn’t every president try to control the narrative?» Goodman pressed.
«They try to control their own narrative. But one of the things that Trump has done, for example, is the renaming the Gulf of Mexico and then not allowing the Associated Press to come into the White House,» the protester continued.
The first protester explained in the video that he was there after he «saw people were hanging out,» while the second protester explained he was there due to «executive overreach.»

The first protester added that he had been given a sign describing Trump as a «fascist,» as well as a printed one-sheeter that declared, «We are facing fascism… The time to act is now!» alongside a photoshopped image of Trump with a Hitler-styled mustache.
Video of the protesters racked up more than 12 million views on X by Sunday afternoon.

«I am protesting what is happening with this blessed country, the democracy that was advanced democracy now in transition to a dictatorship, and we are almost in a fascist state right now – only because the rule of law is bending right now, and it may break,» another protester told Fox Digital.
The protests this weekend follow mass protests targeting Tesla last weekend. Elon Musk, who is helping lead DOGE and is a staunch Trump ally, is the CEO of Tesla and has seen anti-Trump critics physically attack, monetarily boycott, and protest the car company over his politics.

Incoming NGA Chair ‘disappointed’ in Dem governors ‘playing politics’ in bipartisan group

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
Colorado Springs, Colo. – Incoming chair of the National Governors Association (NGA), Gov. Kevin Stitt, R-Okla., is «disappointed» that some Democratic governors might stop paying their dues to the bipartisan group.
The Atlantic reported ahead of the NGA’s summer meeting in Colorado Springs, Colo., that at least two Democrats, Govs. Tim Walz of Minnesota and Laura Kelly of Kansas, plan to stop paying their dues when asked to renew their membership this month over the NGA’s response to President Donald Trump’s second term.
«We shouldn’t be playing politics like they do in Washington, D.C.,» Stitt told Fox News Digital in an exclusive interview at the summer meeting. «But sometimes, if you’re a governor running for president or a higher office, you make it political.»
Kelly is chair of the Democratic Governors Association (DGA), the partisan gubernatorial arm that has been vocal in resisting the Trump administration. As Walz weighs a third gubernatorial run, the former vice presidential candidate has remained a leading critic of Trump’s administration since losing the White House alongside Vice President Kamala Harris last year.

The Democratic discontent comes as Democratic Gov. Jared Polis of Colorado prepares to cede his chairmanship to Stitt, a Republican, at this weekend’s summer meeting. Gov. Wes Moore, D-Md., is set to become vice chair.

«I would tell anybody, listen, do you want your leaders to take their ball and go home just because they get mad at something? That’s not the way to solve problems,» Stitt said, adding that he likes both Walz and Kelly.
«Listen, this isn’t the time to take our ball and go home. Let’s sit down and debate what the best policies [are] going forward,» Stitt added.
The Oklahoma governor said it can be «frustrating» when Democrats are constantly targeting Trump, but as a business leader, he said there are plenty of instances in which governors can find common ground, including a reduction of the United States’ more than $36 trillion in debt.

Ahead of the summer meeting, Eric Wohlschlegel, NGA communications director, emphasized the bipartisan nature of the NGA and told Fox News Digital the NGA’s «mission hasn’t changed.»
According to The Atlantic report, Democratic members of the NGA complained the group «did not respond forcefully enough» when the Trump administration paused federal funding early this year, as Gov. Janet Mills of Maine clashed with Trump over biological men playing in women’s sports and, more recently, when Trump authorized the National Guard to California to amid the anti-ICE protests.
«Every public statement NGA issues reflects bipartisan consensus. So far this year, all but one statement has had that consensus, and when governors don’t agree, we simply don’t issue one. That’s how we preserve our role as a bipartisan convener, a principle we won’t compromise,» Wohlschlegel explained.
Thirteen Republican and seven Democratic leaders planned to attend the summer meeting, featuring discussions with Education Secretary Linda McMahon and Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

A source familiar with the situation blamed the controversy on «Democratic infighting, unspoken campaign jockeying and a few anonymous voices looking to reshape a nonpartisan institution into a political one.»
The source added that «no governors are on the record expressing discontent with the NGA. No allegations of misconduct, governance failure or mismanagement have been raised.»
And without addressing the controversy directly, Conor Cahill, a spokesperson for Polis, told Fox News Digital the governor «has been honored» to lead the NGA and to «work across the aisle with governors on education, permitting reform, standing up to federal efforts to strip away gubernatorial authority around the National Guard and elevating the priorities of states.»
He added that «during this polarizing time, bipartisan organizations are needed more than ever, and NGA must continue to demonstrate value to all governors and effectively communicate governors’ opinions on various matters with the public and the federal government.»

Abegail Cave, a spokesperson for Stitt, told Fox News Digital ahead of the NGA that «people seem to forget NGA is a bipartisan organization, not a political one.»
Fox News Digital reached out to Walz and Kelly for comment but did not immediately receive a response.

Una muestra en Barcelona revela la infancia de Claude y Paloma Picasso junto a sus padres artistas

“No es fácil ser hija de Pablo Picasso, pero tampoco de François Gilot“, ha confesado Paloma Picasso en la presentación de la exposición Crecer entre dos artistas, con el que el Museo Picasso de Barcelona rinde homenaje a su hermano Claude.
Calificada por el director del museo y cocomisario, Emmanuel Guigon, como “sensible, emocionante y poética”, la exposición se podrá ver desde mañana viernes hasta el próximo 26 de octubre, y el público podrá seguir un viaje emotivo por la infancia de Claude y Paloma Picasso junto a sus padres, en Vallauris, en el sur de Francia, adonde se trasladaron tras la Segunda Guerra Mundial.
Impulsada por la propia Paloma Picasso, la muestra reúne cerca de un centenar de obras icónicas, y muchas de ellas inéditas como La Guenon et son petit, entre pinturas, cerámicas, juguetes y fotografías familiares, así como correspondencia, que ofrecen “una mirada íntima y excepcional a la vida familiar del artista”, remarca Guigon.

Las obras de la exposición, que ha contado con el apoyo de toda la familia Picasso, transmiten, según Guigon, “la felicidad de la vida familiar, y al mismo tiempo una vida centrada en el trabajo”, porque, como ha precisado Paloma, sus padres eran “por encima de artistas, dos trabajadores”.
Comienza la exposición con los retratos de los cuatro integrantes de la familia, convertidos en sombras chinas, pero que “también se podría interpretar como las figuras de las cerámicas griegas”, anota el director del museo barcelonés.
En una segunda sala hay retratos de la familia, algunos inéditos como un retrato de Françoise Gilot de 1946 (Mujer joven sentada), cuadros en los que se ve a los niños jugando, muchos recortes de papel convertidos en pequeños objetos para jugar, fuera un mosquetero, un autobús o un “arlequín dislocado”.
En este mismo espacio se encuentra la escultura La mona y su cría (1951) y los dibujos preparatorios, que muestran el proceso seguido por Picasso para convertir en una mona unos cochecitos que le había regalado Daniel-Henry Kahnweiler a Claude y que el artista ‘robó’ a su hijo.

“Esta escultura es la demostración de que Picasso, más que un genio, es humano, porque decir que es un genio es como si su creatividad le hubiera caído del cielo, y detrás de cada obra había mucho trabajo, como se ve en los dibujos en los que esos coches de Claude se convirtieron en una mona», ha señalado Guigon.
En el ecuador del recorrido, se pueden contemplar, por primera vez en España, algunas de las obras de Gilot, centradas en Claude y Paloma y la vida familiar en Vallauris, en la casa de La Galloise.
Se trata de una obra muy influenciada por Picasso, como se puede comprobar en óleos como Claude y Paloma jugando con una pelota (1953), Mis hijos jugando (1952), Claude a caballo sobre un juguete (1952), La lección de lectura o La mesa del jardín con Claude, éstas sin fecha.

Al final de la exposición, se exhiben algunas cerámicas picassianas con Claude como protagonista, una filmación en la que se puede ver al artista transformar un vaso en una paloma, así como la película que el propio Claude dirigió con Thierry Spitzer un año después de la muerte del malagueño, Atelier 74, que documenta el estado del taller de La Californie, prácticamente intacto desde que Picasso lo abandonó en 1961 para instalarse en Mougins.
Paloma Picasso ha destacado que “en aquel ambiente familiar no había diferencia entre las obras importantes y los juguetes que hacía Picasso“, como unas muñecas que creó con la cara de su hija, que “apenas las hizo -ha recordado- me las quitó, así es la vida”.
No ha ocultado también su satisfacción de que se pueda ver en Barcelona la obra de su madre, algo que frustró la pandemia.
Sobre la relación con dos padres artistas, Paloma Picasso ha comentado: “Mi padre vivía y compartía cosas con nosotros, ponía su vida como ejemplo, y mi madre, con un pensamiento más intelectual, expresaba su temor de que acabáramos odiando el arte, porque era el arte el que nos robaba tiempo con nuestros padres; pero vivir en un ambiente tan creativo es lo mejor para un niño”.
Ha asegurado que no tiene muchos recuerdos de sus padres juntos, pues cuando se separaron ella tenía cuatro años, pero “lo hicieron bien, porque ninguno de los dos hablaba mal del otro”.
De ambos heredó la idea de “no conformarse con lo que sabes hacer, sino ir más allá” y fue así como se acabó dedicando al diseño de joyas.
