(Christian News Network) — The “No Kings” protests against President Donald Trump, held today, drew attention not only for opposing the president but also for the groups supporting the movement. According to The Western Journal, partners of the official No Kings organization include the Communist Party USA and chapters of the Democratic Socialists of America in New York City and Boulder, Colorado. These groups have long histories of praising authoritarian regimes.
For example, in his piece for The Western Journal, Jesse Stiller highlights a striking hypocrisy reflected in the “No Kings” organization. The CPUSA openly praised the late Cuban dictator Fidel Castro, sending letters of support during his life, celebrating the anniversary of Cuba’s communist revolution, and commemorating him after his death. Castro’s regime is widely documented to have committed severe human rights abuses, including the killing of over 4,400 political opponents and the arbitrary detention or torture of many others, according to the Cuba Archive and the U.S. State Department. Similarly, the DSA’s International Committee has expressed solidarity with North Korea’s totalitarian government. These examples reveal the contradiction of groups that claim to oppose authoritarianism, yet align themselves with organizations known to praise dictators—a hypocrisy that the “No Kings” movement underscores.
Founded in 2025, No Kings frames Trump as an authoritarian figure, positioning itself against his political influence. However, the movement’s connections with groups that have openly praised repressive governments have raised questions about the broader ideology and alliances involved in the protests. Today’s demonstrations highlight not only the ongoing political polarization in the United States but also the complex and sometimes controversial networks that support anti-Trump activism.
