Chris Markowski takes a hard look at the “No Kings” protests and their backers, from Soros to Gates to Rockefeller-linked foundations. What was pitched as a nationwide movement turned into a poorly orchestrated, almost comical parade of tie-dye and purple hair. Markowski breaks down the funding networks, the permanent “protest industrial complex,” and why, despite millions spent, the effort fell flat — leaving many questioning if anyone was actually convinced.

Speaker 2 (00:16):
The nol King flop just like we expected. Yeah, all
the big big dark money NGO network out there, the
Soros and the like, bankrolled, bankrolled these protests around the country.
Had the signs printed up at Kinko's. Did you see

(00:41):
that one out in California where they it was like
they were like a marching band. They had it perfectly
orchestrated with a aerial photo of no kings. I mean,
does anybody take it seriously? Did you watch the people
that were at these things? I honestly, I don't know

(01:04):
where all these hippies come from. Yeah, all these nineteen
sixties boomer hippies. Where do you guys live? I mean,
I thought, I mean, is it all in Asheville, North Carolina?

bored because you know, you know, they haven't been able

(01:24):
to you know, see the grateful dead because Jerry died
back in the nineteen nineties. I know, you go see
the the other one. I wouldstock long time ago, looking
for something to do. Baby boomers, the old people, and
then their color and their hair hair purple, Oh my god.
I mean honestly, I know I got a lot of

(01:46):
boomers that listen to this show. I mean, come on, man,
you got to get your your generation. You got to
get these people wor I mean it's over now, man,

Sorows Network, Gates Foundation, Ford Foundation, Tides Foundation, Rockefeller Network,
Single Network, funneling millions of dollars. Yeah, into an institute
called riot Ink. It's basically a permanent protest industrial complex.
And this is what put this whole thing together. And

(02:39):
again some of the man on the street interviews were
absolutely hilarious. Do do you think that this changed you? I mean,

you want to be a part of. This These are
your peeps. Here. Yeah, yeah, I don't think so. And listen, Okay,

am very critical of Donald Trump and many of the

(03:21):
things that he has engaged in. He is engaged in,
but King, no, you know, populous nationalists, you know, stuff
that I don't agree with, taking stakes and privately held companies.
I'm very very critical of many of the things he's
out there. But no, Kings, did you do you think

(03:44):
that you are actually going to convince anybody with your
nonsensical parades and your signs and your hey hey ho ho. No,
King's got to go. I mean, really that you think
that's gonna work anyway, you know, to each his own.
Guys want to blow money on Kinko's signs and tied

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
