Saturday was a beautiful fall day. It was one of those days where you might want to take a walk around your neighborhood or your city. Some of the older generation in America decided it was a good day to hold a “No King” protest. When you look at the age of the protesters and their professionally made signs, you begin to wonder what this protest was actually about. I suspect many of the protesters were simply living the memory of the good old days when they protested the government, the war in Vietnam, the military draft, etc., with their handmade signs. But what are they protesting today–there is no draft, President Trump has ended a number of wars, and the government hasn’t really changed and President Trump hasn’t been in office very long? There were younger protesters, and their answers as to what they were protesting were very interesting. I wonder what we are teaching our children.<\/p>\n
On Monday, The Daily Wire<\/a> posted an article about the protest. Their reporter asked the protesters what they were protesting.<\/p>\n The article reports:<\/p>\n The Daily Wire team joined throngs of marchers who took to the streets of the nation\u2019s capital Saturday for the 2025 \u201cNo Kings\u201d protest.<\/strong><\/p>\n The Washington, D.C., rally was the focal point of similar events nationwide, meant to counter the \u201cauthoritarian threats\u201d posed by President Donald Trump and his administration.<\/strong><\/p>\n Protesters came prepared with posters and costumes. Many of them had gone through media training and learned chants, songs, and dances to perform. But for all that preparation, many of the protesters The Daily Wire encountered couldn\u2019t answer what we thought was a simple question: \u201cIf Trump was elected, how is he a king?\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n Responses ranged from blank stares to Kamala Harris-style word salads and vague references to \u201cchecks and balances.\u201d Deep in a hole, a self-identified \u201che\/she\u201d claimed that Trump was taking away women\u2019s right to vote. When pressed for information, he\/she said \u201cTrump has said that in interviews everywhere.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n [Editor\u2019s note: he hasn\u2019t].<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n Please follow the link to the article and watch the video of the young people who were asked why they were protesting.<\/p>\n The article notes:<\/p>\n \u201cNo Kings\u201d is part of the Indivisible Project, itself part of George Soros\u2019s Open Society Action Fund. The project was created to \u201csupport the grantee\u2019s social welfare activities.\u201d The Indivisible Project<\/a> was awarded multiple grants, most recently they received $3 million from the Open Society Foundations.<\/strong><\/p>\n High-profile Democratic leaders including Harris and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer encouraged participating on social media and in official statements.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Saturday was a beautiful fall day.
