Golf legend Phil Mickelson<\/a> posted a “No Kings”-themed social media message Saturday, mocking the movement while subtly criticizing decisions made during President Joe Biden’s administration.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Mickelson referenced Biden’s criticized use of an autopen<\/a> to sign pardons and previous provisions for illegal immigrants.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“On this special day as we all gather to fight against blanket auto pen pardons and executive orders, lawlessness, and stealing citizen\u2019s resources for illegal non citizens, I believe it has worked!! That is no longer happening so great job everyone,” Mickelson wrote on X.<\/p>\n

Republicans have argued that this second mass “No Kings” protest event scheduled for Saturday is simply an effort to distract from the current government shutdown<\/a> battle.\u00a0<\/p>\n

House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., told FOX Business he hoped Democratic leaders who attended would be more willing to accept the GOP’s plan after the demonstrations were over, but he did not sound overly optimistic.<\/p>\n
