Today’s Entry: Submitted via talkback – asking about NoKings.org and their organization efforts this weekend.
Bottom Line: So yes, tomorrow is a notable day in American history as it’s the U.S. Army’s 250th anniversary, it’s also Flag Day, as it was June 14th of 1777 that the Continental Congress approved the design of the American Flag. It also happens to coincide with President Trump’s birthday. President Trump directed a military parade be held in honor of the Army’s milestone anniversary. Quoting Trump in announcing the parade, “we will be celebrating the Army’s 250th anniversary on Flag Day”.
There was no mention of his birthday, nor are there any related plans for a birthday celebration in the parade planning. Nevertheless, leftists have billed this as Trump’s ordering of a military parade for his birthday. Just as was the case with the recent LA Riots that were attempted in dozens of cities across the country (with a minimum of five organizations involved in the planning and execution of the riots), there’s a concerted effort by Marxists to breakout the 2020 BLM playbook, rebranding it “NoKings” most recently. But actually the “NoKings” theme is anything but new.
If you go the NoKings website you’ll see this posted in the “about” section:
On June 14—Flag Day—President Trump wants tanks in the street and a made-for-TV display of dominance for his birthday. A spectacle meant to look like strength. But real power isn’t staged in Washington. It rises up everywhere else. No Kings is a nationwide day of defiance. From city blocks to small towns, from courthouse steps to community parks, we’re taking action to reject authoritarianism—and show the world what democracy really looks like. We’re not gathering to feed his ego. We’re building a movement that leaves him behind. The flag doesn’t belong to President Trump. It belongs to us. We’re not watching history happen. We’re making it. On June 14th, we’re showing up everywhere he isn’t—to say no thrones, no crowns, no kings.
But in reality, the origin of the manufactured “NoKings” movement occurred last August when then-Senate Majority leader Chuck Schumer introduced what he dubbed the No Kings Act, which was attempted legislation aimed at countering the Supreme Court’s ruling on presidential immunity that ended many of the Left’s undemocratic, and anti-American, efforts attempting to prosecute and imprison their political opposition (who was the overwhelming choice of the American people to lead the country last November). The legislation went nowhere, but name lives on in the form of what’s currently being attempted.
NoKings is a collaboration led by Indivisible, a Marxist organization founded in 2019 in opposition to President Trump, and the recently founded 50501 Movement, a Marxist organization that took the lead in attempting to organize May Day (the communist holiday) events across the country. As is commonly the case with newly established Marxist organizations, they’re rebranded fronts. Indivisible has received the majority of its funding through George Soros’ Open Society Foundations, and the Tides Foundation that both George Soros and Bill Gates have a heavy hand in funding.
The newly established 50501 Movement has yet to disclose its funding sources, however its partnership with Indivisible is a clue as is the joint statement released with the Bernie Sanders PAC, Political Revolution. The key organizer of 50501 is Kay Evert who is a California-based activist who used Reddit to attempt to organize anti-Trump protests.
So that’s who’s behind this. There’s nothing organic about it. There aren’t even new people behind it. It’s George Soros, Bill Gates, Christy Walton and co. under branding established by Chuck Schumer and presented to you as though it’s a new grass-roots movement.
No Kings is attempting to manufacture 1,800 protests across the country, with seven in Palm Beach County and three on the Treasure Coast. As always there are two sides to the story and one side to the facts. Those are the facts.
