Networks are planning coverage of the nationwide No Kings protests on Saturday, the second round of demonstrations against President Donald Trump‘s actions in the White House. Thousands of events are being planned across the country, but there will be a few differences from the last day of demonstration in June. This time, it is taking place amid a government shutdown, with few signs that it will end soon. And there is an official event being planned in Washington, D.C. at Pennsylvania Ave. and Third Street NW near the National Mall and the Capitol. Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) and Sen. Chris...

And the very people who supported Biden’s authoritarian regime are the very same ones protesting. Teachers’ unions, Federal workers unions, the ACLU, atheists, progressives, pro-abortion activists, socialists, climate change activists, etc. The list goes on and on. The No Kings Day organizers even have their own website , with various tools to promote social unrest, and numerous progressive organizations are funding these protests. Here are images of some of their “partners” - a more complete list is linked here.The list of funders is a “who’s who” of progressive, social justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion NGOs. One of the main funders...

More than 2,700 “No Kings Day” demonstrations are scheduled nationwide Saturday, four months after the first protests drew five million people. Organizers say Trump’s actions have escalated since June, including expanded immigration raids, prosecutions of political opponents and pressure on universities. Trump allies brand them “anti-American” When millions of demonstrators took to the streets in June for “No Kings Day” — depicting President Trump as a wannabe monarch intent on violating American democratic norms — it was still fairly early in his administration. The immigration raids in Los Angeles were just getting under way and Trump had deployed military troops...

After two Muslim men were busted planting an incendiary device on a FOX News van covering Charlie Kirk’s death, I flagged their “Is He Dead Yet” merchandise and tracked how the calls for Trump’s death are widely sold on Amazon, Etsy and major retailers. Amazon had censored everything from books against transgenderism and BLM to banning the sale of the Confederate flag (and even at one point pulling episodes of the Dukes of Hazzard) but you can get a “Is He Dead Yet” flag which the Amazon description openly bills as “an anti-Trump flag” making it clear that it’s not...

As the president tries to send in the National Guard, a phalanx of conservative influencers is working to support his claim that Portland is burning. PORTLAND, Ore. — During the four hours Nick Sortor sat in jail on the morning of Oct. 3, the conservative influencer wondered if anyone even knew he’d been arrested. He had no cellphone. He could make local calls, but he didn’t know anyone’s number in Portland. Outside, though, his online allies were blaring the news: A right-wing journalist — and not the leftists who assaulted him at an ICE protest — had been arrested by...

Since immigration-enforcement agents began their descent on Chicago, acting with seemingly unprecedented speed and ferocity, Evelyn Vargas and her colleagues at Organized Communities Against Deportation have been in a frenzy. They help run an emergency hotline that refers people who have been detained to immigration lawyers and directs their families to support services such as food pantries, emergency housing, and mental-health care. (On a single day last week, it took 800 calls.) And they oversee a team of 35 “rapid responders” who have been sprinting across the city to film arrests, aiming for at least two to arrive on the...

Less than a month removed from Charlie's assassination in Utah, the Salt Lake Tribune published this cartoon entitled "The Hole-in-the-Head Gang" depicting a wanted poster with elected officials from the state (with red around the neck?!).

Demonstrators will once again take to the streets for “No Kings Day,” a nationwide series of protests against the Trump administration, on Oct. 18. While protests against President Trump have not been uncommon since his first term, “No Kings Day” kicked off on June 14. These gatherings were organized in response to the U.S. Army’s 250th anniversary military parade in Washington, D.C., which coincided with Trump’s 79th birthday. Across the country, 2,000 “No Kings” protests are scheduled for next Saturday, according to a post from the Indivisible project. There are plans in major cities like Los Angeles; Boston; Washington; Chicago;...

Posing as a TV reporter clad with body armor, Gov. JB Pritzker on Thursday mocked the Trump administrative narrative that National Guard troops are needed to quell chaos in “war-torn Chicago” in a bit for ABC’s “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” “This is JB Pritzker, reporting from war-torn Chicago. As you can see, there’s utter mayhem and chaos on the ground. It’s quite disturbing,” he says on a downtown Chicago bridge. “The Milwaukee Brewers have come in to attack our Chicago Cubs. “We’ve seen people being forced to eat hot dogs with ketchup on them, and our deep dish pizza, well, has...

House Speaker Mike Johnson revealed on Fox News this morning that the Democrats will likely keep the government shut down for more than another week until after a scheduled “No Kings” protest against the Trump Administration on October 18. The shutdown is entering its tenth day on Friday as Democrats continue to vote against reopening. They are demanding taxpayer-funded healthcare for illegals, continued funding for leftwing PBS propaganda, and $1.5 trillion in additional spending. The No Kings group is planning its demonstration on the National Mall in DC, and "Some of the House Democrats are selling T-shirts for the event,"...

The Illinois governor, a potential presidential candidate, is fighting the presence of National Guard troops and the activities of ICE agents in Chicago.When President Trump ordered the National Guard to Chicago last week, Gov. JB Pritzker of Illinois became the latest Democrat to bear the brunt of managing an aggressive federal government. He has concluded it must be combated with a national campaign. Aside from instructing his attorney general to file a lawsuit to block troops from other states coming to Illinois, Mr. Pritzker has few formal options to resist what he described this week as an “unconstitutional invasion of...

Pritzker said that Texas National Guard troops should, ‘stay the hell out of Illinois.’Fully embracing anarchy, Democrat leaders in Chicago, a sanctuary city; and in Illinois, a sanctuary state, are using every possible method to thwart federal immigration authorities from removing illegal aliens and curtailing rampant crime there.Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson issued an executive order Monday creating an ICE Free Zone, preventing ICE from using city property, such as parking lots, as staging areas, or for enforcement actions. City agencies are directed to use physical barriers like locked gates to limit access to city property, and report to the mayor...

These were the two individuals that were shot by ICE for ramming their vehicle

Federal immigration officials say their Portland, Oregon, facility has come under nightly attack, with little help from local police because of political directives from city leaders. In an exclusive interview with Fox News’ Bill Melugin, Cammila Wamsley, director of Portland’s ICE office, said the facility has faced violence for more than 100 consecutive nights, with Portland police largely absent under guidance from the mayor and city council

Sources say university officials had hoped the despicable incident would just ‘go away quietly.’ They were wrong. The University of Delaware is finally responding after its communications department failed to stop a student-produced “comedy” skit show from thanking “Charlie Kirk’s Killer” in the closing credits to air. A recent episode of The Bi-Weekly Show, a program aired on the university’s Student Television Network (STN49), included that crass line celebrating the cold-blooded murder last month of the conservative icon and founder of Turning Point USA, according to a screenshot posted Wednesday by the Delaware Republican Party.The university was slow to respond...

A federal grand jury has returned a two-count indictment charging three women – two from Southern California and one from Colorado – with following a United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent home, livestreaming their pursuit and then posting the victim’s home address on Instagram, the Justice Department announced. The grand jury charged following defendants with one count of conspiracy and one count of publicly disclosing the personal information of a federal agent: Cynthia Raygoza, 37, of Riverside; Ashleigh Brown, 38, of Aurora, Colorado; and Sandra Carmona Samane, 25, of Panaroma City. Brown and Samane have been arrested on federal...

WASHINGTON - The White House released a list of nearly 30 elected officials -- all of them Democrats -- who the Trump administration said incited violence against Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents throughout the U.S. The White House named the following elected officials on the list, as well as quoted each of them: Gov. Tim Walz smeared ICE as the “modern-day Gestapo. Gov. Gavin Newsom likened ICE to “secret police,” calling them “authoritarian” and proclaiming a “right to push back.” Gov. JB Pritzker claimed the country is becoming “Nazi Germany” because ICE is “grabbing people off the street and...

Let’s be clear. There is zero cause or justification for President Donald Trump to send federal troops to Portland and authorize “full force.” Despite Trump’s bluster over the very limited protests outside the Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility in South Portland, the city is not “war ravaged,” nor is the ICE building “under siege” by “domestic terrorists.” Portlanders, of course, know this already, because we live, work and raise our families here. We know from our daily routines – school drop-offs, commutes through the city and evening get-togethers – that Trump’s characterizations are divorced from reality. While the modest protests...

Prime Minister Mark Carney joined British Prime Minister Keir Starmer and the leaders of several other centre-left governments at a conference in London on Friday where much of the discussion revolved around how to tackle the rise of the far-right and deal with U.S. President Donald Trump. The day-long Global Progress Action Summit focused on a range of issues including immigration, how to regulate artificial intelligence and election strategies for progressive parties. The summit has been organized by a collection of left-leaning groups, including the Center for American Progress, which has ties to past Democratic administrations, and Labour Together, a...

Two sisters accused of trashing a Charlie Kirk memorial in Arkansas said they have been harassed and fired from their jobs as they asked for cash for their legal defense. Kerri, 23, and Kaylee Rollo, 22, were arrested last week in Bentonville, near the border with Missouri, and charged with vandalizing a makeshift Kirk shrine. Video of the incident taken by a witness appears to show Kerri ripping signs and kicking candles placed on the memorial whilst saying Kirk 'lived as he died - promoting violence.' 'Record all you want,' Kerri, who uses they pronouns, added and put up two...
