Exposed: “No Kings” Protests Were a Manufactured SpectacleBy Jonathan Gregory Washington, D.C. — June 14, 2025What was hailed as a raw, spontaneous uprising against authoritarianism has now been exposed as one of the most elaborate political theater productions in recent history. The so-called “No Kings” protests, paraded in the press as a grassroots movement of concerned citizens, were in fact fully funded, coordinated, and marketed by the Democratic Party’s strategic apparatus. Far from being a people-powered revolution, the protests were a product of high-dollar consultants, scripted outrage, and carefully crafted optics designed to sway public perception.Internal memos leaked from a mid-level campaign operative reveal that funding for transportation, signage, and professional-grade media content came directly from party-affiliated PACs. Protest leaders were pre-selected and media-trained, while entire crowds were artificially inflated using paid attendees recruited through Craigslist and gig apps. Many of the listings promised $200 a day plus bonuses for “vocal participation” and “crowd engagement,” with some ads going as far as encouraging deliberate agitation to provoke viral moments. Several agitators were even assigned to follow rival political figures and instigate confrontations on camera.The deception was complete, and effective. Mainstream coverage celebrated the protests as authentic expressions of democratic passion, while behind the scenes, handlers pulled every string. Now, as evidence of orchestration spreads, public trust erodes even further. What was marketed as a cry against tyranny now reads like a cynical ploy to manufacture outrage and manipulate voters. In the end, the only thing “grassroots” about the “No Kings” movement may have been the synthetic turf rolled out for photo ops.@newsmax
