7-Million NO KINGS Turnout is ‘Biggest Ever’? Then Why Did Mainstream Media FAKE the IMAGES
WLT Report ^ | October 19, 2025 | Joshua C.

Posted on 10/20/2025 3:23:13 AM PDT by mbrfl

If the mainstream media is to be believed, this weekend’s No Kings protests were by far the largest ever.

And we’re not talking just the largest No Kings protests.

They are claiming it was the largest turnout for a single day of protests in the history of the United States — PERIOD.

That’s a big claim.

So if that’s true… why are there so many examples of the mainstream media using OLD or MANIPULATED footage in their coverage?

Maybe, like so much else, the mainstream media is focused on propping up an agenda… rather than simply reporting the facts as they really are?

I can’t claim this first example is definitively FAKE — but you can usually spot a salesman pushing you to buy what he’s selling.

The dead giveaway usually shows up in the delivery. Not ‘selling’, but OVERSELLING.

Check out this 36-sec clip from CNN with their reporter SO EXCITED to hype up the size of the crowd in DC.

Which… we’re told we could have seen for ourselves, if ONLY we could have seen it ‘just a few minutes ago’, before the crowds ‘thinned out’:

The “surge” of illegals that flooded the streets of cities across the US back in ~2008(?) is the biggest left-wing protest I remember.

What happed this weekend I don’t think even registered for comparison.

I think nearly all of that money dried up thanks to DOGE. Folks have to dig into their own pockets to lay down astro-turf now. No one wants to do that and I think this weekend proved it.

And Joe Biden won with 81 million votes! Don't question it.

” said”

Organizers,,,,,
aka propaganda urinalist’s x 3

The legacy media are controlled by unaccountable left wing foundations that prop them up.

The left getw up every morning, looks in the mirror and tells themselves,

" I'm a good person, people like me, I'm smart, people like me, I have important things to say, and gosh darnit, people really do like me".

Stewart smalley was ahead of his time..

Thanks for the post. The left is so definite about the 7 million, with aerial views for several cities. This is usually countered here and there by local ground level photos.

I guess the evidence I want are aerial views that are time-stamped and sourced.

I understand that there was a huge welcome the troops home parade in New York City at the end of the Vietnam war - about one million people. The networks refused to show it. The parade was erased as effectively as Stalin’s (”Uncle Joe”) Holodomor.

“Just the usual line of old hippies.”

The last eight years of aging hippie protests has not been kind to them.

They look washed out and burned out.

That is most of them. A few were very proud of themselves—for escaping from the dementia wing of their assisted living facility.

Lol.

These hippies were actually saying they were using their white privilege to protest since ICE would not arrest them.

I know your remark was made in sarcasm, but what’s scary is that many actually believe what you just said.

The covid scam really separated the thinkers and non-thinkers.

If anyone became a King/dictator it was the lefts’ Hero Fauci . It was right out of The Emperors New Clothes. Everyone forced to go along with all that BS when the majority knew it was BS.

Trump is still their President today….. immigrants are still being rounded up and shipped away… people who liked Trump Friday still do today….. people who hated him still hate him….. so who cares how many folks attended? A giant waste of time and resources.

The Dems and their left have been removed from power, except for a few municipal politicians and governors who are now part of a well defined nullification movement. They will be de-elected or locked up. Watch it happen. This is why CTV and MSNBC have become so desperate.

I agree with your statement of FAITH.

I bet they included counter-protesters in the total.

How many of them were double- or triple-counted because they were bused from one location to another?

Aho “americans” have way too much free time on their hands they use to riot, plunder and hate America. No wonder they back importing low I.Q. subhuman foreigners to clean their toilets and bring them their chips and salsa.

It was a massive failure for their hate America rallies. The title “No Kings” doesn’t even make any sense, idiots.
