Organized Deception: An Honest Look at the “No Kings” March
On Saturday, October 18, 2025, millions of people marched in numerous U.S. towns and cities (and London) to protest the current administration. It was labeled the “No Kings” march referring to President Trump as an uncaring dictator (fascist, Hitleresque etc.) who is a “danger to democracy.”
The march was highly organized and extremely deceptive–especially its name and premise.
Here’s my honest take on the “No Kings” march.
Organized Deception: An Honest Look at the “No Kings” March
There was uneasiness in my spirit on October 18 during the “No Kings” march. I knew who was behind it, funded it, the false message it proclaimed, and the waste of money and time it entailed. Fortunately it’s impact was minimal because it was not a grassroots uprising.
It was a well organized protest of deception.
Let me back up my words.
I will write this piece in the older form of “argument” that’s been prevalent for hundreds of years. I will list my points numerically so that they are clear, build upon each other, share facts, and seek to engage your heart and mind.
1. Let’s begin with some positive points. I’m grateful we live in a nation where non-violent protest is not only allowed, but championed. Free speech is a treasure that few nations know firsthand or have ever experienced. China, for example, has never been free–for thousands of years. Praise God that biblically-based/Western nations value individual liberty and expression.
2. I’m grateful that the marches were mostly peaceful (with a few exceptions). I’m saddened that some marchers used the event to spray paint and graffiti some churches and one marcher dressed up in the same outfit that the assassin used to murder Charlie Kirk. Those expressions were evil (defacing private property and imitating murder).
3. The “No Kings” march was organized and funded by some 270 non-profit organizations who got their money from billionaires like George Soros (Open Borders Society), the ACLU, and the Indivisible Fund. Up to three billion dollars was disbursed to these various left-wing (anti-God) groups over the last few years. They had plenty of money to advertise, obtain permits, order signs and literature, pay many marchers, and rent blow-up “furries” and other symbols of leftwing causes.
4. Many of the marchers were Baby-boomers or seniors--a geriatric crowd–trying to reincarnate their “hippie” Vietnam protest years. They left early when their paid hours were over. Others were young people who know little of what’s really happening in the world as evidenced by their signs–some misspelled–and incoherent interviews.
5. The majority worldview of the marchers was atheism–progressive, secular, Leftist, Marxist, socialist, communist etc.–(though some liberal believers also marched). These groups commonly share a disdain for God and faith-based culture. If you’ve wondered what “progressive” means, it is “moving beyond” and destroying Judeo-Christian faith and replacing it with the “progress” of atheistic tenets and governance.
6. Since destroying faith is the goal, then the true power behind the march was Satan and his demons. He is the true hater of God, truth, and human life (i.e. the Destroyer).
7. To describe Donald Trump as an authoritarian king is ludicrous (foolish, unreasonable, ridiculous). Through democratic means in the 2024 election, Trump won all the six swing states, the Electoral College, and the popular vote. He also allowed the march to happen. If he was a “king” he would have stopped or stormed it (remember the Chinese Communists at Tiananmen Square in 1989?).
Here’s the most succinct analysis by Thomas Hern:
Donald Trump won [in 2024], but to call it a No Kings protest, to act like he is a king, is so utterly preposterous. This is a man who won the popular vote. He won every swing state. He is a person who is enacting the exact agenda he promised he was going to enact while he was campaigning. And so what they are actually protesting is the absolute perfection of American democracy….So it’s actually a protest of democracy.
8. The real authoritarians (kings) in America are the Democratic Party, and the media/educational/celebrity elites who no longer believe in free speech or honest elections. They are the authoritarians (woke) who want to force their secular values on the American nation (e.g. via lawfare and cancel culture during the Biden years).
9. The “No Kings” march was really a cultural temper tantrum by those who lost the 2024 election. They don’t want a renewal of faith in America (The Gen Z and Baptism revivals are growing), but desire to re-direct the nation to their secular ends which include moral relativity, socialist economics, fears of global warming, and antisemitism.
10. The “No Kings” protests were dumb on their face. Trump is not a dictator. He’s a lawfully elected president. Those who resist him are the totalitarians. Were they marching against themselves? The London march was especially idiotic because the U.K. has a king (who is ceremonially not a problem to anyone). Did the marching Brits forget that fact or were they simply overcome by TDS–Trump Derangement Syndrome?
10. The growing hatred of the Jews and support for Hamas is another mark of atheist doctrine. The devil hates Israel (God’s chosen people) and Jesus Christ (and his Church) because they are the representatives of His Kingdom work on earth. The Jews’ role is primarily providential (most Jews are unbelievers), but the followers of Jesus are the greatest threat to world evil because they shine as light-bearers of the Great Commission.
11. The USA is the most biblically-based nation on earth (though greatly backslidden). “Death to America” and “Death to Israel” are demonic chants that are really directed at God who is using both nations for his sovereign purposes.
12. The marchers have one exception in their anti-God coalition–radical Muslims (hence the pro-Hamas rhetoric). It’s an uneasy alliance, but both religions (atheism and Islam) believe in force to achieve their goals while hating the God of the Bible.
13. The “No Kings” march was timed to draw attention away from Democrat government shutdown, save Chuck Schumer’s Senate seat, and revive progressive momentum in the culture war. America is engaged in a social tug-of-war. The Biden years pulled us left. The Trump election pulled us “right.” The march was meant to pull us back left before the New Year. 2026 promises a great renewal of faith, freedom, and economic growth as we celebrate America’s 250th birthday on July 4. “No Kings” tried to counteract the growing American renewal.
13. Those who marched want a secular, socialist, totalitarian civil sphere (government is their god). Believers in God share the cry of the early American colonists, “We have no king but Jesus!” If the demonic forces can kill godly culture in the United States of America, it paves the way for a one-world atheistic government described in the book of Revelation. Nation-states, and especially “Christian nations” are the main restraints on global tyranny. That’s why supporting open borders and condemning “Christian nationalism” are in vogue among God-deniers.
14. Millions of deceived people with a deceptive slogan are a “coming attraction” of the reign of Antichrist and his global rule. They will welcome his “social democracy,” worship him, and receive tyranny in return.
15. Antichrist’s reign will end quickly when the KING of KINGS–The Lord Jesus Christ–returns to bring justice and grace to planet Earth and establish His Eternal Kingdom of Light and Love.
We must continue to fight organized deception with the weapons of prayer, love, truth, revival, and culture transformation.
Don’t be deceived. Reject the lies. Live out your faith.
Here’s the truth about “No Kings:”
“We have no king but Jesus!“
I appreciate you Ron! Continue to speak Truth boldly!! God’s speed & blessings!!!
Great article, Ron. Your points are well reasoned and solid. I enjoyed reading the other comments and your gracious replies. Keep fighting the good fight. Bless you, my friend.
Thank you, Rick. Back at ya! We all are involved in the Kingdom cause and have our roles to play.
I think one of the great lessons learned from Charlie’s Kirk’s life was honest, civil, and even gracious debate. He was better at it (in the lion’s den) than most.
He inspired me too. I pray his voice and demeanor will be multiplied thousands of times over.
In YWAM we call it “ministering in the opposite spirit” (e.g. overcome evil with good).
Ron
Are you a Christian nationalist? Your comments are not spot on. I feel so sorry ,I’ll pray for you btw what do think of racial profiling. Jesus was dark skin, if he was here he would be deported.
Before being exiled Lucifer was a favorite. He can quote from the Bible with the best.
You can put lipstick on a pig, but trumps still a Facist pig.
Your not helping with uninformed information. Start backing up your statements.
I used to have so much respect for you.
Nice to hear from you, Chris. I respect your different point of view. We can lovingly agree to disagree (that was Charlie Kirk’s great strength).
Just a couple points:
1. Nations are God’s idea–both Old and New Testament references. There are five primary religious worldviews (I wrote a book on this in 2018 called “River of God.”) Nations in which biblical faith is shared by the majority are the happiest and most prosperous in the world. Currently there are about 120 of them (out of 200). Atheism/secular based countries (like China, North Korea, Cuba, Venezuela etc.) are the most controlling and often poor. Do you really want America to be atheism based and become like them?
2. I backed up all my points in the blog. What’s your evidence for President Trump being a “fascist pig?” I shared mine that he’s our duly elected president (majority vote). What’s fascist about that? Also, entering America illegally is against the law? What’s fascist about sending them home?
You seem to be more emotion-based than fact-oriented. But thanks for caring enough to write.
Are you a former student from SKHS? If so, you might not know that next year, the classes of 1970-72 are having a joint reunion in Port Orchard (September 25, 26, 2026). If you’re a member of one of those, I’d love to see you.
Ron
Wonderful article Ron! Great points and al true. God bless my friend.
Thank you, David. You have been very faithful over the years to fight for truth in government and awakening the Church to influence the culture.
We must have greater persistence than the forces of darkness. Thanks for leading the way.
Ron
Sorry. Sorry to hear you bring Jesus into your rant. A true believer, a Christian, a man of God should not preach right and wrong especially in the political arena. I believe in justice for all. What say you?
Thanks for writing, Kehn.
First off, I didn’t do a rant. Here’s the definition of one: “Speak or shout at length in a wild, impassioned way.”
What I actually did was a well reasoned argument against the deceptive message of the “No Kings” March. If you have some good points to make that contradict my ideas, please share them factually.
As for “preaching right and wrong in the political arena,” that’s a vital necessity–just like every other area of life. Right and wrong deals with everything, not just personal stuff.
The Bible is a library if 66 books written by about 40 different authors over about 2000 years. It’s the number one best-selling book of all time and changed my life many years ago–and to this day.
The largest “section” in the Bible is the “Prophetic Books” in which there are 17 in the Old Testament (Isaiah through Malachi). In them, the people of God speak to power often and exhort the nation to “do right.”
One of my favorite books in the Old Testament is Proverbs–right in the center after Psalms. It’s all about right and wrong in numerous categories of life. I used to read one a day (there are 31 of them). You might want to start doing that yourself to get a good dose of God’s view of morality or justice.
I don’t know if you’re young, but many young people say they are the “justice generation.” That’s what speaking out in life (including politics) is all about–longing for justice from the sphere (government) that has the power to shape it on earth.
One day all of us will stand before God and he will give “justice” to us whether we did right or wrong on earth (2 Corinthians 5:10). He will also exercise great love and grace to those who’ve confessed their sins and whose wrongs all covered through the sacrifice of Jesus (John 3:16).
I hope you’re in that number. God bless you.
