Pro-Trump Artist Humiliates Democrat Prosecutors With Hilarious ‘Installation’
A New York artist captured the nation’s attention on Thursday in a daring display of political satire. The controversy centered on a provocative move outside the Manhattan courthouse where former President Donald Trump is on trial for falsifying business records. The trial was paused on Friday to allow Trump to attend his son’s high school graduation.
Dubbed the “D*cks of Hazard,” the “installation” featured 100 pink, penis-shaped balloons, each emblazoned with images of prominent figures in the case against Trump, including Manhattan Judge Juan Merchan, District Attorney Alvin Bragg, Judge Arthur Engoron, and Biden’s Special Counsel Jack Smith. The balloons floated ominously against the Manhattan skyline, creating a surreal spectacle that drew cheers from onlookers.
Scott LoBaido, known for his outspoken support of Trump and his flair for dramatic political statements, executed the latest stunt by pulling up near the courthouse in a U-Haul truck and releasing eye-catching balloons into the air. His message? A bold, unapologetic declaration that these legal adversaries are, in his view, nothing more than “useless d*cks.”
Speaking to The New York Post, LoBaido said, “As a New Yorker, this is how we talk.” The artist spent two days and $1,500 on supplies for the balloon installation, meticulously attaching faces to them and adding weights to prevent them from floating away too quickly.

It was Scott LoBaido, the same man who threw pizza at City Hall for the coal-oven fire crackdown.
Told me he did it in support of Trump saying, “I’m an artist, so what do I do? Return the humiliation favor by humiliating these d*cks.” pic.twitter.com/5p4KBPt5wW

LoBaido expressed his motivation, saying he was compelled by what he sees as “disrespect” toward the 2024 GOP presidential nominee. He accused Engoron, Merchan, Smith, and Bragg of trying to “destroy” Trump and “the Constitution.” LoBaido’s move showed the circus-like atmosphere that surrounds Trump’s trial but also the frustration among Trump supporters who view the prosecution’s efforts as a politically motivated witch hunt.
Last June, LoBaido also protested against the proposed city rule targeting coal and wood-fired ovens, integral to New York City’s pizzerias for decades. He threw pizza at City Hall as part of his unique demonstration. The New York City Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) had proposed regulations mandating a 75% reduction in carbon emissions from such ovens, affecting fewer than 100 restaurants but with a significant impact.
Cops posted right there. cops were great. just got a summons. all good. my point was made

LoBaido delivered a speech on the steps of City Hall and concluded his protest by hurling a pizza, criticizing the city’s priorities. He emphasized issues like crime, veteran and first responder treatment, and education as more critical, proclaiming, “Give us pizza or give us death,” reminiscent of the historical plea for liberty during the American Revolution.
Trump’s trial which has gripped the nation for weeks, sees the former president facing 34 counts related to allegations that he covered up reimbursements to his former attorney, Michael Cohen. Cohen, who has turned into a key witness against Trump, was involved in a payout to porn star Stormy Daniels to silence her about an alleged affair with Trump back in 2006.
