Members of the Revolutionary Communist Party, Socialist Workers Party and more spoke to Fox News Digital during Saturday’s “No Kings” demonstrations in the Twin Cities.

St. Paul, MINN. – From Times Square to here in Minnesota’s state capital, communist and socialist activists at the nationwide “No Kings” protests escalated their anti-America campaign and openly called for a nationwide economic strike on May 1, an international communist holiday known as May Day, as key Democratic activists joined their call.

At the rally here in St. Paul, organizers, speakers and activists distributed communist literature, waved flags from socialist governments and revolutionary movements, and urged demonstrators to transform the day’s protests into a nationwide shutdown of work, school and commerce.

By early Sunday, Press TV, the propaganda arm of the Islamic Republic of Iran, leveraged news of the protests to tell readers, “Regime change begins at home’: No Kings, No War protests held across US.”

As Fox News Digital reported, about 500 organizations with an estimated combined annual revenue of about $3 billion sponsored and organized the demonstrations, creating a centralized protest apparatus even while organizers tried to market the activists as “grassroots.”

The network included traditional Democratic advocacy organizations, like Indivisible, MoveOn and the American Federation of Teachers, alongside openly socialist and communist groups such as the Party for Socialism and Liberation, Freedom Road Socialist Organization and local chapters of the Communist Party USA, including the Twin Cities Communist Party USA club, which endorsed the St. Paul rally.

 

In a plot twist that would warm the coldest Red Square, the “No Kings” rally in Minnesota marshaled a $3 billion battalion of democratic socialists, communists, and your friendly neighborhood union bureaucrats to stage a grassroots uprising that, spoiler alert, wasn’t exactly grassroots—and was, according to Fox News Digital, more like a carefully budgeted flash mob with flags and paperwork. Meanwhile, Press TV, Iran’s favorite Monday morning cheerleader, dubbed the protests the opening act of ‘regime change’ at home, just in case you thought a foreign media outlet wouldn’t jump on U.S. political theater like a free buffet. And as if the irony needed seasoning, President Trump mused about seizing an Iranian island amid naval traffic, turning international tension into geopolitical bingo. It’s socialism, capitalism, and subtle irony all rolled into one awkward dance, proving that nothing says political revolution like a $3 billion budget and a well-timed TV soundbite.
