Soros foundations funding 'No Kings' protests nationwide

Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, was the first to sound the alarm on ties between Soros and the "No Kings" protest during an interview with Fox News’ Sean Hannity on Thursday, saying "There's considerable evidence that George Soros and his network are behind funding these rallies, which may well be riots all across the country."

Cruz introduced the Financial Underwriting of Nefarious Demonstrations and Extremist Riots (STOP FUNDERs) Act in July that would allow for the Department of Justice to impose Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO) charges against individuals behind the funding of "violent" and "extreme" protests.

"This politicized march is being organized by Soros operatives and funded by Soros money. No one denies these basic facts," Cruz told Fox News Digital. "The Trump administration and the Republican Congress are committed to countering this network of left-wing violence."

Per the Indivisible website, "On October 18, millions of us are rising again" to protest in an effort to paint President Donald Trump as a tyrant and an authoritarian king.

Per the Open Society Foundations' website, Soros "has given away more than $32 billion of his personal fortune" to the foundations. His son Alex serves as chairman of the board.

According to the Indivisible organization's website, Ezra Levin is the executive co-director behind the group. Leah Greenberg, Levin's wife, serves as the other executive co-director.

These protests have been funded in part by progressive groups, including some linked to George Soros, according to reports.
That came from Grok. This is what happens when you press Grok away from Elon's deceptive X generations.

Who is funding 'No Kings'? Full list of organizers for Saturday's protests

Who are the organizers? A coalition of over 200 organizations is leading the nationwide demonstrations.

Who is funding 'No Kings'? Full list of organizers for Saturday's protests | Hindustan Times

Organizers probably have information booths set up at the main gathering area where the public can listen to scheduled speakers and get refreshments. They may hand out placards or sings they can carry in support of the cause.

...

My guess is that protests in general are driven by influencers, multipliers, and organizers. Some are paid by governments as we saw with Israel. Some receive contributions, advertising revenues, or speaking fees from PACs controlled by wealthy donors and from major corporations.

Fact Check: Who is financing the No Kings protests

The people that attend the protests are by and large unpaid. Some may be responding to news stories and announcements put out by influencers and political news aggregation sites. Some of their stories tend to be sensationalist and inflammatory.
