Summary

On March 29, communist and socialist activists held nationwide “No Kings” protests, calling for a nationwide economic strike on May 1. The protests, organized by about 500 groups with an estimated combined annual revenue of about $3 billion, included traditional Democratic advocacy organizations alongside openly socialist and communist groups. The network of activist groups has received funding from billionaire George Soros and American-born tech tycoon Neville Roy Singham, who has provided millions of dollars to organizations promoting narratives critical of U.S. democracy and sympathetic to China’s political model.

The network of activist groups has received funding from billionaire George Soros and American-born tech tycoon Neville Roy Singham. The protests included a call for a nationwide strike on May 1, the traditional May Day holiday long embraced by communist and socialist movements.

The scene felt like a familiar performance, with flags, chants, and calls for revolution. But amidst the familiar script, a subtle detail stood out: the discarded American flags and a heap of garbage bags, with an emptied bag of Cheez-It visible among the trash.
