Democrats are keeping the government closed for the sake of “No Kings” mass protests scheduled for Saturday, Oct. 18.
We already have a no kings day – it’s called July 4th.
Ironic, is it not, that the far left radicals who refuse to accept the results of the Presidential election are whining about “kings.”
Rep. Tom Emmer (R-MN) correctly calls the Democrat planned ‘No Kings’ rally on October 18 the ‘Hate America’ rally.

“Chuck Schumer’s not running the show,” he said of the Senate minority leader, a Democrat. “The No Kings protesters or organizers are running the show.”
Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy explained the anti-American, pro-Hamas riots are “part of antifa, paid protesters. It begs the question (of) who’s funding it.”
This will be a Soros-paid-for protest for his professional protesters. The agitators show up,”
Sen. Roger Marshall of Kansas said.
Well well well…
There’s nothing organic or grassroots about the “No Kings” protest.
Just the usual communist NGOs and Nonprofits.

Duffy accused the protesters of dictating the actions of Democratic leaders.
“Democrats want to wait for a big rally of a No Kings protest when the bottom line is, who is running the show in the Senate?” Duffy said. “Chuck Schumer’s not running the show,” he said of the Senate minority leader, a Democrat. “The No Kings protesters or organizers are running the show.”

“Chuck Schumer has been planning for this shutdown for a long time. Has had a war room set up. We know that the big leftist rallies, there’s No King rallies are set for next weekend… and they are saying they want to continue this through those rallies.” (Marsha Blackburn)
Sen. Roger Marshall of Kansas said Democrats have to put on a show with the protest before they will allow the government to reopen.

Speaker Mike Johnson on Friday slammed the No Kings protest march scheduled to take place at the National Mall next week, describing the planned protest as the “hate America rally” that would draw “the pro-Hamas wing” and “the antifa people.” His characterizations, however, drew condemnation from some Democrats who defended the protest movement, whose first big demonstration was overwhelmingly peaceful.

“They’re all coming out,” Johnson said Friday in an interview on Fox News. “Some of the House Democrats are selling t-shirts for the event. And it’s being told to us that they won’t be able to reopen the government until after that rally because they can’t face their rabid base.”
Rep. Tom Emmer (R-Minn.), another senior House Republican, also criticized the planned demonstration and blamed it for prolonging the shutdown. Telling reporters Democrats had caved to the “terrorist wing of their party,” Emmer alluded to a “hate America rally in D.C. next week.”

Congressional Republicans blame the now two-week-long shutdown on Democrats, saying they wanted to keep the government closed until after the protests in hopes they can show party activists they are pushing back on the Trump administration.
In criticizing the rallies, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said: “’No Kings’ means no paychecks, no paychecks and no government.”
