Funding from billionaire Democrat donor George Soros is reportedly funding the “No Kings” protests across the country on Saturday, ostensibly demonstrating against the overreach of power by President Donald Trump.
Soros, Founder of the Open Society Foundations, which funds left-wing activism throughout the U.S., has significant financial ties to the Indivisible Project, the 501(c)(4) group responsible for organizing much of the popular “resistance” activities against Trump and the GOP.

Although the investigative journalist group the Pearl Project estimates there are 265 partner organizations conducting the “No Kings” on Saturday, including in Washington, D.C., Indivisible is reportedly “managing data and communications with participants.”
The Open Society Action Fund and other Soros-backed foundations have given $7.61 million to the Indivisible organization since its inception in 2017, a Fox News Digital analysis found.
Indivisible has also received hundreds of thousands of dollars from the Tides Foundation and the Tides Network, which have been accused of funding anti-Israel campus protests.
Anti-Israel blocs, calling themselves the “Palestine Contingent,” are positioning themselves at the “No Kings” rallies this weekend, despite Hamas signing a peace deal with Israel earlier this month.
Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) sounded the alarm first about Soros’s involvement in the “No Kings” protests on Thursday evening during an interview with Sean Hannity, saying there is “considerable evidence” linking Soros to the protests.
Cruz, in July, introduced the Financial Underwriting of Nefarious Demonstrations and Extremist Riots Act, nicknamed the STOP FUNDERs Act, that would enable the Justice Department to impose financial conspiracy charges for funders of “violent” and “extreme” activities.
Trump in August suggested that he was considering invoking the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act, more commonly known as RICO charges, against Soros and affiliated networks.

The president said in a September interview with NBC News that Soros “should be put in jail.”
“He’s a bad guy,” Trump said of Soros.
