No Kings across the country. On October 18, millions of us are rising again to show the world: America has no kings, and the power belongs to the people.
Because this country does not belong to kings, dictators, or tyrants. It belongs to We the People - the people who care, who show up, and the ones who fight for dignity, a life we can afford, and real opportunity. No Thrones. No Crowns. No Kings.
“NO KINGS” is more than just a slogan; it is the foundation our nation was built upon. Born in the streets, shouted by millions, carried on posters and chants, it echoes from city blocks to rural town squares, uniting people across this country to fight dictatorship together.

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.)
Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) isn’t letting Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) lie about Americans fighting against the spread of authoritarianism and greed.
As thousands plan to take a stand during another round of “No Kings” protests scheduled across the nation next Saturday, Republicans have been trying to smear the protests as radical and dangerous.
From Bernie Sanders:
No, Speaker Johnson:
The No Kings Rally on October 18 is not a “hate America” rally.
Quite the contrary.
It’s a rally of millions of people who believe in American freedom and are not going to allow you and President Trump to turn us into an authoritarian country.
