Unmasking the Communist Puppet Masters Behind the "No Kings" Protests: A Radical Leftist Scheme to Subvert American Democracy

In the summer of 2025, as President Donald Trump's policies reignited national debates, a wave of protests under the banner "No Kings" swept across all 50 states. Billed as a grassroots uprising against authoritarianism and a defense of the Constitution, these rallies drew millions on June 14—coinciding with Trump's birthday and Flag Day.

Mainstream propaganda outlets like the Associated Press portrayed them as ordinary Americans standing up for democracy, quoting organizers who claimed no political affiliations beyond protecting the republic. But beneath this facade lies a darker truth: a well-funded, coordinated network of hardcore communists, neo-Marxists, foreign propagandists, and violent extremists using the movement as a Trojan horse to advance a socialist agenda that could dismantle America from within.

The explosive revelations come from the Oversight Project's report, "No Kings! An Analysis of 50501's Social Media Presence," which dissected the Instagram follows of 42 accounts linked to the shadowy group 50501—the primary organizers behind these events. By tallying 4,622 follows across state chapters, D.C., and national outfits, the investigation uncovered a web of radical connections that outpace ties to mainstream Democrats or media. Republican Rep. Anna Paulina Luna didn't mince words, labeling it a "ruse to push a communist and Marxist agenda." Her assessment? Spot on. This isn't about rejecting kings; it's about installing Karl Marx as the supreme ruler.

50501 emerged from a Reddit post calling for protests in every state, rapidly morphing into a nationwide phenomenon. Protests in cities like Philadelphia, Los Angeles, and Hartford drew thousands, with estimates of 4-6 million participants nationwide. Yet, the Oversight Project's network diagram paints a spy-novel picture: 50501 accounts intertwined with groups worshiping Lenin, denying genocides, glorifying terrorists, and bankrolled by China's Communist Party (CCP). These radicals received more attention from 50501 than NPR, the AP, or even Kamala Harris.

Starting with outright communists, the Party for Socialism and Liberation (PSL) tops the list, followed by 17 of 42 accounts (20 PSL-linked profiles total). Founded by Gloria La Riva, PSL pushes for obliterating capitalism and building a communist society. They celebrate the CCP's 1949 takeover and dismiss Tiananmen Square as Western propaganda. Shockingly, in May 2025, PSL member Elias Rodriguez assassinated two Israeli embassy staffers in D.C., with photos linking him to PSL protests and publications.

The Communist Party USA (CPUSA), followed by Houston and Washington chapters, has a storied history as Soviet puppets, funneling KGB funds to undermine America, per declassified Bukovsky Archives.

Far-left collaborators amplify this rot. Students for a Democratic Society (SDS), revived in 2006, garnered nine follows (16 profiles). Their '60s incarnation birthed the Weather Underground terrorists and openly admitted communists. Today, they joint-protest with PSL and idolize plane hijacker Leila Khaled of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP).

The Democratic Socialists of America (DSA), with 19 follows (33 profiles), is the powerhouse behind Bernie Sanders and AOC. Stripped of glamour, DSA's platform demands "economic planning" and "equitable distribution"—euphemisms for state seizure. Their national committee brims with Marxists, and chapters advertise "comrade" study sessions on Marx while partnering with PSL and Antifa's "Antifascist Working Group."

Neo-Marxists twist class struggle into racial and colonial grievances. Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP), with 12 follows from nine accounts, hailed the October 7, 2023, Hamas massacre as a "historic win" and led campus occupations rife with antisemitism. They frame the U.S. as "Occupied Turtle Island," advocating its dismantlement.

The All African People's Revolutionary Party (AAPRP), followed by Houston, Florida, and Washington chapters, pushes Pan-African socialism to end "Western hegemony" through revolution.

The treasonous foreign angle involves CCP proxies. The ANSWER Coalition, followed by Washington and Rhode Island, is PSL's anti-war arm, led by Brian Becker and funded by Neville Singham—a U.S. tech mogul in Shanghai who attends CCP forums.

The New York Times exposed Singham's network channeling hundreds of thousands to ANSWER via the Progress Unity Fund. Code Pink, with two follows, flipped from anti-war feminists to CCP apologists after founder Jodie Evans married Singham in 2017, pocketing over $1.7 million. They disrupt hearings on Uyghur genocide, shouting "China is not our Enemy," and face congressional probes as foreign agents.

Violent extremists round out the picture. Antifa, followed by three accounts including @antifintl and @punkwithacamera (selling violence-promoting gear), thrives on riots like the 2024 Portland State takeover. A tragic echo: At a Salt Lake City "No Kings" protest, an innocent bystander, fashion designer Arthur Folasa Ah Loo, was fatally shot by a leftist "peacekeeper."

Comparisons are damning: PSL's 17 follows eclipse NPR/PBS (12), AP (8), NYT (5), or MSNBC (4). Among politicians, only Bernie (21) and AOC (16) surpass it; Harris gets just five. This prioritization screams agenda.

Media complicity fuels the deception. NPR called 50501 "grassroots," featuring a PSL-shirted protester without context on their genocide denial. Is this a "united front" masking radicals, or has leftist media radicalized since 2020? Either way, it's a betrayal of journalistic integrity.

The endgame? Despite democracy rhetoric, 50501 cavorts with authoritarians, CCP collaborators, and violence normalizers. Americans rejected communism decades ago; it's the path to tyranny. But exposure offers hope. Demand accountability, excise these infiltrators, and reclaim discourse on freedom, borders, and capitalism.

The "No Kings" facade crumbles—revealing Marxist overlords as the true tyrants.

Wake up before they crown their red utopia
