No Kings! YES! Of course!
That’s what inspired American independence in the first place.
But autocracy takes many shapes.
How about No Oligarchs? Or No Deep State? No Police State? No Mass Surveillance? No Compromised Politicians? No Corrupt Judiciary?
There was much enthusiasm and excitement. And talk of channeling that energy into constructive action. There would be regular Calls to Action sent across social media platforms and by direct email.
“Call your Senator today and urge …”
“Call your Representative today and object to …”
“Go to your congressman’s local office and …”
What? Is this a joke?
Let me get this right. We’re supposed to call the AIPAC-funded, MIC forever war politicians, the folks that haven’t raised the minimum wage since 2009, the Big Pharma Big Health Insurance lapdogs who STILL have not instituted affordable, quality, universal health care in our country, the warmongering blowhards who have funded the slaughters in Gaza and Ukraine to the tune of $200 billion and counting, the misguided fools who have decided to allocate $1 trillion next year to the wasteful, self-destructive DOD, the elected representatives who kneel at the altar of Wall Street, hedge funds and the big banks, the incompetents who couldn’t even get it together to keep the government open for business … WE’RE SUPPOSED TO CALL THEM?
I will believe that No Kings is a real, legitimate, grass roots uprising of the people, by the people, and for the people, when they declare unequivocally that the “movement” will devote its energy and resources, direct the preponderance of its organizing efforts, to one vital task — the only one that can make a real difference.
Creating real choice at the polls by putting real people’s candidates on the ballot. When the spokespersons announce that every call to action must unwaveringly focus on true representative government. When all the enthusiasm and excitement is channeled into giving voters in every single contest — 435 House seats and 33 Senate seats — the absolutely essential opportunity in 2026 to vote for a candidate who will listen to and faithfully serve the needs and priorities of every U.S. citizen, not just the wealthy and powerful elite class.
