The Truth Is, They Do Want a King<\/a><\/p>\n

I just returned from a wonderful week away enjoying time with my family and dear friends to find a lot of chatter about “No Kings” from the predictable group of left-wing Marxists, and their good friend Bill Kristol. It would seem laughable if this rebrand of revolutionary angst were not proven deadly already. Rather than burning urban areas under BLM flags, the revolutionaries are now\u00a0shooting elected officials<\/a>\u00a0at home under the banner of contempt that pretends to dislike monarchies. As I\u00a0noted recently<\/a>, these dark and satanic ideologies imported openly into the American polis through the writings of Marx are deadly and should be removed from society as poison is drawn from a wound.<\/p>\n

Those who wish\u00a0death to America<\/em>\u00a0are not limited to the ayatollahs of Tehran. The tragic reality is that those inside the United States who hate this nation likely outnumber those who feel the same way from the Middle East. This is the product of generations of successful indoctrination imparted by the government schooling system. Education is not just about reading, writing, and arithmetic. It has always been about transmitting values. Those who hate the American way know it and act accordingly. This must be dealt with if ordered liberty is to stand a chance beyond our lifetimes.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0“No Kings” protest movement<\/a>\u00a0is organized and aimed at resurrecting the terror that gripped this nation during the 2020 summer of rage. The majority of Americans finally tired of the fictional, manipulative narratives of the Black Lives Matter and allied transgender movement over the last couple of years and voted accordingly in 2024. As Dr. Ben Carson\u00a0shared<\/a> with me recently, the results of the last election lulled too many conservatives into believing that political evil is defeated in our time\u2014when the reality is that those who wish death to our way of life have been regrouping and plotting a counterassault. That counter assault was attempted in several U.S. cities recently through allegedly anti-immigration law enforcement, most notably in Los Angeles. Even in that city defined in our time as a protest center, the deep blue governing officials couldn\u2019t get away with aiding and abetting lawlessness as usual. So they quickly rebranded the movement to “No Kings.” In doing so, they signal the brainless and fictional narrative that Donald is ruling as a dictatorial king, who curiously allows protests against him. The hypocrisy of that argument requires an entire volume to dissect.<\/p>\n

As the saying goes, you can put lipstick on a pig, but it\u2019s still a pig. The protestors hope to tap into a patriotic root with this iteration of rhetorical schema, rallying a wider coalition based on the nation\u2019s rejection of monarchial rule in the 18th<\/sup>\u00a0century. They will fail because the branding can\u2019t get even skin deep.<\/p>\n

Look around at who is showing up to these supposed “No Kings” events. It\u2019s the same Randi Weingarten-esque group bussed in to every other anti-American protest. The iconography of their signs remains intact from the previous protests, sporting the usual color patterns associated with Ukraine and the\u00a0sexual liberation<\/a>\u00a0movement. What you won\u2019t find is a Betsy Ross flag, which served as the nation\u2019s colors at the time of our ancestors\u2019 rebellion against an *actual* king. America\u2019s left wing decided it, and the nation\u2019s founding, is racist. Given such logic, honest activists would demand to become subjects of King Charles III.<\/p>\n

But let\u2019s lay all that aside for a moment and talk about how to respond to one of these “No Kings” protestors from a position that grants a basis of dignity in approach. I offer this: the left wing is desperate for a king. Everything about progressivism yearns for someone who will make all things safe, who will guarantee the right to all self-centered behavior, who will provide all things needed for one to live in equity rather than through what one earns. Progressivism demands a king who will uphold its cause zealously, and punish people who dare to assert that the law should provide rights and reasonable limitations equally to all citizens for the purpose of a virtuous society.<\/p>\n

Their king will tell you what you can drive, what you can say, what you can eat, and how you may use your land. They want a king who will literally cover your face and inject your body, a king who will take your children if you deny transgender ideology, a ruler who will terminate your bank accounts and your job if you stray from depraved thinking. The progressive left wing wants what it has always wanted: power. It needs\u2014no, demands\u2014a dark lord who will, as the great novelist J.R.R. Tolkien wrote,\u00a0rule them<\/em>,\u00a0find them<\/em>, and\u00a0bind them<\/em>\u00a0in darkness.<\/p>\n

No, the protestors we see now do not reject a king. They demand one.<\/p>\n

Scripture assures that those who want to live under dark rule will eventually get their wish. But we dare not hasten those days. So long as God gives us the strength, we must be sure to prevent that coronation from happening.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
