This is an iHeart podcast. What do you get when you cross a bunch of old white liberals, minorities, socialists, antifa, and a bunch of Marxists? You get a no Kings rally this week on the David Rutherford show. What's up, team David Rutherford here? I'm super fired up. You know, one of the things, Jordy, that just cracks me up all the time is when a bunch of people who are essentially representing a bunch of different things get together and are smashed into one consolidated area and start making signs or are given signs there. They put on their, their unique little costume outfits, they start, you know, waving banners and, and marching in the streets and they, they have themselves like a grand old protest. There is nothing better that represents America better than that. Unless what they're talking about is a bunch of horseshit. I'm talking about the no Kings rally. This thing was absolutely mind blowing to me. Right? And you know what? And, and they're, they're really organized. I mean, you had what, 2700 different events in all 50 states play that drone video for us there. Some of these overheads that are, are, are remarkable when you think about.
Jordy
Yeah, look at that, man.
David Rutherford
No Kings. No Kings. We're Denver against Trump. No King. Pretty good. Well, I mean, what happens when you get a bunch of defunct hippies and around there, invariably some type of tambourine or some type of drum comes out, right? Dude, I remember coming out. I remember in college, man, I'd go down to the Keys for like, Skin Fest or whatever that was called, and there'd always be some hippie drum circle that I'd try and go around and dance in back in my, my hippie days, man. It's, it's awesome edc.
Jordy
It's their edc.
David Rutherford
That's right there. What is it? A. A bag of mushrooms, A tambourine, right. And some hairy armpits, right? That's the, that's the deal with all this. But what's interesting to me is that they, they actually are trying to, you know, create some type of unification because of the absolute devastating state of the Democratic Party. So the, they're creating a new rallying cry around the fact that Trump is a imperial ruler, right? He is a. He is a oligarch. He is the king of all kings. There you go. There he is. I love the fact that Team Trump. There's the king himself. God, I love that, that he does like that. It's. It fires me up. Right? So this is the new cry, right? Because they couldn't get their, their, their voice consolidated as it related around Kamala Harris, which makes complete and utter sense. And then you add in, you know, thou shalt not tell a lie, Tim Waltz about his military career and just the weird nature of that dude, you know, and, and so what happened? They have an absolute catastrophic loss, right, because of what? Well, because of all of the things that Trump is ultimately having to do. Now their primary focus, I think what is kicking this off is this rallying point. Because the one thing that always makes mama clutch her pearls or hold her handbag or whatever these older white liberal women are engaged in is the fact that there are criminal, criminal, illegal alien elements that are being taken down by ICE and by Homeland Security. You know, and people are freaked out. They're saying this is political overreach. This, there's no, these people's constitutional rights are being violated. That's my favorite. And then for some bizarre reason, there are judges at every level on the bench, right across our judicial system that are, are, are putting forth orders or stays or whatever it is that's basically saying that this is an illegal action. And this is the most mind blowing thing about, about it. And this is how I believe societies fall when you can convince somebody that actively participates in society, right? In many ways they, they vote, they pay their taxes, they pay their local taxes, they support communities, they create charities, they go to churches and all this. But yet the people who don't participate in that legally somehow need a higher, bigger voice than those who do. And when you, you go after those people who are not participating legally in the system, then somehow you're a king, you're a tyrant, and you know, you're, you, you need to be put in check or control.
Jordy
That's what you get. That's what you get.
David Rutherford
That's what you get. That's what you get, right? When, when you start, when you start going after the illegals, that's when, when, you know, dictatorical, dictator. I can't even speak right now. Dictatorial tyrants emerge and, and, and, and start overstepping their reach, right? But meanwhile, everybody voted for this in the last election, right? We won the popular vote, it was a mandate. We won all the swing states. So in that short period of time. Now this is the thing, but this is the rallying cry. And you gotta understand that mass formation psychosis takes place around emotional ideas. It always has and it always will. Right now, you know, one of the things that's interested is, is when you look at some of the materials that were handed out during these, these rallies, they were like, like Be peaceful activists and stand your ground and do your, you know, your right to protest. They were pretty amazing things like, Jordy, would you bring up the one demand letter that, that was handed out at one of these things. Annie, Annie, no play. Now I'm gonna read some of this to, to you listening right now. All right? We demand, right, that millions of nurses, temp workers, paramedics, staffers, and community members rise up, blocking streets, taking over research centers, and raising the banner of free health care and medical autonomy for everyone on US Soil. And I think this is what started, right, this is why we're in this government shutdown, because the Democrats are holding up the continuing resolution, which, by the way, they passed every single time while they were in power, right? But. But they're holding it up because they want comprehensive health care for illegal in quotation asylum seekers or whatever, right? Meanwhile, the entire health care system is out of control, can afford health care. Our ERs are overwhelmed. It's. It's an absolute. And it's driving many municipalities into massive debt trying to pay these bills, right? But here it gets better. It's not just free health care, right? It gets better, which is in and of itself a socialist idea that everybody deserves free health care. Well, ultimately, guess who pays for that? Any of you, like me, that are paying high taxes. We're paying for free health care. So it's not free, which is ridiculous. And I'll tell you, as a person who participates or in the past has participated in government sponsored health care, the Veterans Administration, the VA health care system, it sucks. I'm telling you right now, you would be miserable. It sucks. The government cannot run health care. Period. End of sentence. All right? Now it goes. And. Aha. And the oppressed and brave people revolt against ice. Now, revolt is the word revolt. And, and Jordy, why don't you look up the definition of revolt for me in a second, all right? Against ice, Border patrol, homeland security, and local police. So essentially every law enforcement agency, right, destroying their infrastructure, discrediting their operations and destroying infrastructure. That. That's. That's violence, right? That's burning buildings down, right? That's. That's burning cop cars, right? And overwhelming their personnel. How do you overwhelm a personnel? Through physics, physical altercations returning safety and peace to our communities. So they're essentially telling you that. That the homeland and ICE that are taking gang members, cartel members, foreign adversaries, terrorists off the streets of our cities, that, that, that's making your city less safe. We already know the statistics in D.C. where he went in already. And all the residents are saying it's the safest D.C. has been in 10 years. So we know it's already working. But what these people is, they want those people back on the streets. They want to reduce and increase crime. All right, and here's the next one. That angry mob stormed the Supreme Court, abolishing it outright, Returning power to the community elders, to wayward youngsters, and to those of us who earn trust in their communities continuously because of the care and humility. Not appointed authority. Let me repeat that. They want to destroy the Supreme Court. Destroy. Abolishing it. Right. Repur. Returning power to community elders. Which elders? Who gets to have the elders? If there's no Supreme Court, there's no law. Who determines what the law of the land is? You guessed it, the tyrants. These people, they get to determine. And these, again, remember, are the same people who wanted unvaccinated people abolished from society. Right? All right. And finally, we can call on renters, homeowners and farmers to decommodify housing and land, join forces in grassroots networks to obstruct evictions, to abolish rent, to place families and individuals into dignified housing, and to break up the monopolies in real estate and agriculture who prey on our need for land in order to turn unprecedented profits. All right, so guess what? That's communism, plain and simple. I don't care what you think it is. That's communism. So these people are handing out flyers basically to say we're going to. We want to be a communist society. Who in society, in a communist regime takes heavies, Right, you do. The bourgeois. Whoever is against them, which is all MAGA voters who in the last administration we were labeled as domestic terrorists. Certainly I'm a domestic. Now. Here's my label, officially based on these clowns, right? I am a white Christian nationalist domestic terrorist. That's what I am. Do you think I'm going to fare well in this new upcoming society? Right? Hell no. They're going to throw me in jail or they're going to kill me like they did 65 million people in Russia and maybe 100 million in China. That's who we're up against right now. That's who is leading these charge. Now the other. That's good, Jordy, with that one. What did you get the definition revolt for me?
Jordy
Well. Well, real quick, I think you should read that last sentence. I'll read it. This is.
David Rutherford
Yeah, please do.
Jordy
Oh, that's Trump again. Sorry.
David Rutherford
Yeah, it's all good.
Jordy
Can't Help it. It says, should we fail to observe the aforementioned demands within the allotted time, the disorder will be without parallel in modern times.
David Rutherford
So there you go. That's. I mean, that's a definitive threat against you and me. That's a, that's a definitive threat against people that were in the audience in these protests themselves. How many of the people in the protests want complete revolution? But that's who they're supporting when they're next to the crazies in them. The antifas. Right, the socialists, the Marxists. Hell, on one of the main no Kings rally, and who was sponsoring it, there was actually a Communist party, this socialist party that all that Jordy, bring up, bring up, which is amazing. Representative Luna, like posted this on her site. This is going to be a graph of a bunch of these organizations that are supporting this, right? And this is a graph of all the pain, the major payments and where they were coming from. Now, I know you can't see it, but you may you zoom in on it a little bit. Let me, let me take, take a look at. Yeah, there you go. All right, now up top, Jordy, what I want you to do is I want you to read. I want you to read. Who are the main, who are the main supporters of the funders for these, these people?
Jordy
Yeah, the main, the main partners are Arabella, Buffett. There's, you know the Buffet, you know, Ford, good old Rockefeller, our favorite Soros, and Tides.
David Rutherford
And Tides. All right, so you know, when you look, there's one here. One. This really jumped at me, out at me. Pretty amazing. So Arabella gave $33 million to the league of Conservation Voters, Inc. I don't know. I've never heard of the League of Conservation Voters, Inc. Right, we've got the Interfaith alliance, the Jewish Votes for Peace, the Georgia Conservation Voters Education Fund, Free Speech for People, Florida Rising Together, Inc. $4 million. Common Cause Education Fund, 2 million. And these are all just Arabella, right? What did old Buffett, I want to know who. Oh, Buffett. Buffett gave 4 million to the Civil Liberties Foundation. 2 million behind the Ark, a Jewish partnership for justice. 4 million to Democracy Forward. 2 million to the Jobs With Justice Education fund. Grand total, 16 million. What's the grand overarching total of all this money?
Jordy
Oh, yeah, Here we go. $294,487,641.
David Rutherford
When you ask yourself, $284,000,000 being sponsored to these organizations that are full fledged, trying to dismantle the institutions, the ideas, the conservative values the traditional values of our country. How does that make you feel? Are you starting to realize that this is not some small grassroots organization? Hell, I saw in one rally there was 100 foot constitution that they had made, they printed out and they were walking around with it. Which is interesting because in the last, the last group, right, the last administration, there were protests saying that the Constitution was a bunch of old white slave owners that is obsolete and needs to be rewritten. Now that is getting rid of the Supreme Court, getting rid of executive power, get rid of all the things that are standing in the way of this $284 million, disrupting, destroying, taking down, dismantling the country that you live in. I'm here to tell you, you have to start paying attention to the magnitude of what is going on. All right? Now these major places took place Chicago, right. And Chicago is run by a mayor who is a known racist, many times over, has said, I'm going to give contracts to black business owners, minority business owners. I'm not going to interview, allow white, the last mayor. I'm not going to allow white people to ask me questions. Right. This is who's in charge of Chicago. Who's also who was walking in these rallies was the Governor Pritzker, a multi billionaire guy who owns hotels. And if you go back and look up the origination of where the Pritzkers got their money back in prohibition days, right, that'll be a little wake up call for that family and where they come from. But yet this guy is calling for Trump to be taken down as a dictator right now, you know, this narrative continues to build, right? LA, how many homeless people are in skid row? 60. What's their shortfalls in terms of, of their annual budget because of the overwhelming illegal migrants that are taxing their systems. Right. All right, let's go down. How about D.C. we did recognize that finally Trump brought in and D.C. is a safe place. So what's their argument now and then, my favorite, all time, which is going to be the absolute most observable idea of what is in store for America if this movement continues to gain traction. When, and there's no, there's no sign in sight that this thing's going to stop. Right? At all. Not until these people who fund these things start getting RICO charges against them. And that's in New York City and that's the mayor's election with our good old communist socialist buddy Mandani. Now, it's funny, I've been seeing a lot of times that there, there's actually conservatives out there right now that are saying they want Cuomo to. They want Da Silva, the guy, you know, who's been around New York, knows New York conservative guy, used to protect the subways with his group of guys that wore the red berets. They want him to bow out in Cuomo to take over. This is the guy who sent people back into nursing homes for Covid and got tens of thousands of people killed. This is the guy who locked down in draconian ways, and somehow he's going to be better than Mandani. That's what is just unbelievable to me that the people who don't think like this are quiet. Right? There's no resistance, any going on. And I don't know what it. Whether they're scared from J6 or whatever it is, but people are not being vocal. It's like, I'm just going to be quiet in my conservative little town, and I'm just going to go about. Because it's not playing out in my. In my backyard. Well, guess what? Just go back a year ago. Not even a year ago, nine months ago. What was going on in your streets? What was going on in your area? This is the narrative. This is what they're doing. They lost their coalition, and now they're bringing it back under the guise that getting rid of staunch illegal criminals is somehow a dictatorial, tyrannical regime, a king, if you will. That's what they want, and this is the narrative they're building. Now another crazy thing is you go and you look at a bunch of the videos that have emerged, and there were people calling for actual violence in this. Hey, play the one of the picture of the school teacher. What's her name? Lucy Martinez. An elementary school teacher who's not that one. No, this one right here. This woman in video basically saying, guess what? Charlie Kirk. Ha ha ha. Charlie Kirk. Ha ha ha. And then there's another one if you look to the next, the compilation of that. On the right, there's a little stand that says Charl had it coming. Right? These are these people. Now play the other one of. Of. Of the. The guy, Mosias Bernell, who was a professor at Wilbur Wright College. Now, it was interesting because Homeland Security actually trolled this guy. Play the whole thing for. For him, and they. I want him to see this.
Jordy
Yeah, sorry, I got the wrong Charlie Kirk mocking 1. There's just so many that I found. So.
David Rutherford
Yeah, yeah, it's all good. All good. You gotta grab a gun. We gotta turn around the guns on this fascist system. These ICE agents gotta get shot and wiped out. All right, today we're going to talk about how we can find out and how much the more you around, the more you're going to find out.
Jordy
Don't try it.
David Rutherford
Don't try it. And that's the thing, man. We have literally over the last 16 years, basically thrown law and order out, out the door from the BLM riots to cancel police, defund the police things. These are these people. This is just them coming back in a different narrative. They had to change up their tactics and that's what's going on. These people want violence in the streets. That dude works for Wilbur Wright College and is actively saying that ICE agents should be shot. Now, you combine that with certain cartels out there offering bounties on the heads of Border Patrol agents. Yeah, I just saw the President of Columbia saying Trump needs to be taken out. Why? Because he's feeling the stress that all of his, his cocaine and all of his drugs are being shut down from coming in and their boats trying to continue to poison the American population. Do the other one. Because it's not just like, it's not just Hispanic people or anybody that are calling for violence. Do the other one, the other lady in her video. Get this man out of here now. And if that doesn't happen, and we're not promoting it for one second, but if that doesn't happen, there will be violence and these people had the opportunity to stop it.
Jordy
Read between the lines.
David Rutherford
If this does not happen and we're not promoting violence, but there will be violence. Are you freaking kidding me? This is what you're dealing with. You have to start to recognize that this is what's going on and, and it's growing. 7 million people in the streets is not small. It's not fringe. It's not something it is has. Remember for the last three generations, since the old white people who were out protesting were in college in the counterculture revolution, because that's what they think. I'm reliving my college days, man. We're against Nixon, but it's Trump, man. And an anti war man, but yet Trump stopped eight wars. But it's anti. It's anti fascism, man. Because that's what it is. You know, these people relive, but next to them there are people that are actively trying to dismantle and cause chaos in our societies, but they're right there. How's it going? I like your blue hair. Peace. You got you. You be you. It's absolutely insane to me now, you know, this Is the thing, this is a broader attack on our society, right? And they are changing the narrative constantly. They're trying to probe to see what garners these people. Cuz they have to bring them back together. Their, their collective effort, their collective strength has been so fractured that that's what they're doing, right? And so what? The Democrats are not going to pass a continuing resolution. And I think behind the closed doors there's probably a lot of cleanup taking place. But guess what? There are people around that work for U.S. government that aren't getting paid, right? And you don't see them in yet. You don't see them going, well, you know, my, my brother in law, he works for the Coast Guard, he's not going to get paid. Although they did say they're going to pay the military. So I hope that's true. But the other thing is like you want to, it's not just in this now. I just, you know, they're going to reduce EBT allowances and benefits, right, from like 2800 to 350. Man, I saw 20 videos today of people on these who are saying, guess what, you take mine, I'm going to just go in, I'm going to take my food, I'm going to take it out. You tell those people at the groceries that they don't want to get hurt for a bag of groceries that they don't want. People are saying, oh, I'm going to go back to robbing and stealing. I, I've got five kids to feed. You're going to feed them? The taxpayer owes me. You're going to feed my, you're going to let me sit on my butt and you're going to feed my kids, you're going to feed me. Think about that. And they're going to get pissed now too and they're going to spin them up.
Jordy
When EBT shuts down governments open it back up. I mean the chaos that would cause, that would be, that wouldn't be a funded uprising by George Soros and his friends. That would be an organic uprising. If EBT got shut off.
David Rutherford
Well, we're about ready to see it because it's coming. We're, I mean, you have no. I, I mean, who knows? And that's the feeling that's kind of permeating within everybody. I get asked all the time, I travel the country all the time. People ask me, hey, what's the deal? Do you think this is going to pop off? Do you think something bad is coming? Do you think this and my whole thing is like, man, everything I'm seeing starting, you know, in 2016 when Trump came down, that elevate that escalator, man, it has just been ratcheted up, ratcheted up, ratcheted up, ratcheted up to include, you know, the Russia collusion story that was conjured up by Hillary Clinton and her campaign Podesta, Geller, Sullivan, Mayorkas, right, they partnered with Ron Klein, all these people, Mark Elias, right? They came up with this, all this bull and then they went to Comey, Brennan Clapper and what Tulsi Gabber has said, that the guy who organized this whole thing, Barack Hussein Obama, a sitting president. If that's not King, like I don't know what is. But you're not going to be able to talk to these other people and say what are you talking about with kings? This is what kings do. They won't acknowledge it. They're not going to say anything.
Jordy
Look, with the language that they're using. I'm sorry to interrupt you, but just, I think it's worth looking at, look at the language like we have crystal ball here. I want to read all this, but yeah, please. Break down your door in the middle of the night with no warrant, trash your apartment and all your belongings, zip tie you zip tie your children and drag you out into the street naked, throw you into a van, blah, blah, blah. They act with near total impunity. I mean, that's ratcheting things up 100%.
David Rutherford
And she's supposed to be a moderate middle Democrat, right? And her show. And now she's fabricating what is going on with ice, fabricating that somehow that ICE is going into hundreds, if not thousands of, of families, homes and just destroying them and taking their kids and putting them in jail. This is what the narrative is. They lie constantly. That's what it is. Now, are there mistakes that made? Yeah, but if they arrest somebody that is here illegal, that has blown off time and time again their date in court, they're still illegal. And they blew off a legal precedent to show up and prove why they're in the country, they blew that off. So again, what you're telling me is that it's okay if one group people are illegal, but you're saying when people do something legally that that's illegal too and that we should rise up and take down the system and that's dictatorial, you know, and you combine that with everything else. The censorship, industrial complex. Check out Mike Benz. He is categorically proving that the system turned in after the Arab Spring. There's A great little documentary that he was a part of. You can look it out about censorship that popped the other day by this Brazilian company. I forget what the name it is. I started watching it. Really interesting, you know, after the Arab Spring, you know, and then the Madan revolution, our US Government said, hey, you know what, let's just start trying to manipulate the public and the social consciousness of our own communities through the Internet itself. So what'd they do? They approached, they went after Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and they basically strong arm them into creating a censorship industrial complex to what? To go after Trump, to go after me, to go after conservatives all the way through, through the last administration. And we know that to be true through the Twitter files, through everything else we found. Right? That's, that's what kings do. Kings censorship, censor free speech. I watched A guy named Dr. Andrew Huff, a guy that was a part of EcoHealth alliance, had a very extensive background in, in intelligence and bioweapons development and stuff. And he basically was on Tucker Carlson saying, guess what? COVID 19 was designed and made by Americans led by Fauci and a bunch of barrack laboratories in the United States. And then they offshored it, moved it around, and wound up in the Wuhan Institute of Virology, a Chinese bioweapons lab, and it escaped from there. And guess what? Nobody's been held accountable for that. How many people died as a result of COVID What happened as a result of COVID Guess what? We had mandatory vaccines. That's what kings do. If you're having, being forced to put something in your body to keep your job, work for the military, keep your job through osha, to travel to whatever, all their draconia, that's what kings do. Go to BLM riots, Act Blue, go to 2020 election fraud. We haven't even begun to dive in that, to steal elections. That's what kings do, right? Right. How about January 6th? To wrongfully imprison and prosecute 1800 people based when the fact that the FBI Director Wray lied, when there were 287 known FBI agents or informants or people that worked in conjunction in the crowd that day, inciting that violence. That's what kings do. That's an overthrow right there. Four years we had this vegetable in office, and guess what? Who was, who was signing the 8,000 pardons? And now we know that the auto pen, right, we, we had one of his main people who was operating the auto pen, who was constantly saying that Biden was the best he's ever Been. He's the greatest ever seen. He met with him twice in four years and that just came in in the oversight investigation in this auto pen scandal. That's what kings do. How about the fact that the last head of Homeland Security, right, Alexander Mayorkas, the former head of hias, an international NGO that helps immigration, right, Asylum seekers, ran HHS and allowed 20 plus million people to stream into the United States. That's what kings do. That's an invasion. That's why we're facing what we're facing. That's why ICE agents are in under threat all over this country. Because the last administration basically broke our Constitution and allowed a fundamental shift in the makeup of our country. In the hopes to do what? Flood all these conservative states with illegals, make them legal. Right. Through one grand sweep of the auto pen, that executive order. Guess what? They're all legal now, thereby changing the fabric of our democracy. They gerrymander all these different areas. That's what I mean. All you got to do is look at New England. 40% of the vote of New England is Republican. There's not one single Republican representative in the entire area. Spain, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts. Not one. That's what kings do, right? Here's the deal. Trump won by an astounding amount, won the popular vote, every swing state. This was an absolute cataclysmic shift because the American people saw what was taking place. They saw the corruption, they saw the manipulation of media, they saw the manipulation of elections, the manipulation of government institutions, the flooding of Americans, the populace with illegal aliens from all over the world. We have no idea who's in the country. Right? They didn't end wars, they sparked wars. They funded Ukraine. Right? They funded all these other illegal arms sales. That's what these people did. And what is he trying to do the opposite. And so what are they going to do? They're going to call him a king. Because they need a new narrative. They need to make sure that the Marxist revolution that is taking place underneath society, in the corners and in actually not even the corners, in the streets right now, everywhere you look, so that this thing will gain steam and we will be faced with a revolt, a revolution and a cataclysmic shift of what America is supposed to represent. So to all those no king people, you can go pack sand. Oo yah. This is an Iheart podcast.
The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show
Date: October 22, 2025
Host: David Rutherford (guest or fill-in); Jordy (co-host/producer)
Episode: 69
This episode focuses on the "No Kings" protest movement, a coordinated national demonstration against former President Trump and what the organizers frame as “tyrannical rule.” Host David Rutherford, with input from co-host Jordy, dissects the motives and rhetoric behind the protests. The episode argues that the movement—far from being a spontaneous outcry—is a planned campaign, heavily funded and strategically aimed at dismantling America's foundational institutions by leveraging themes of anti-authoritarianism. The hosts assert that this movement functions as a unifying front for socialists, Marxists, and progressives, warning listeners about its revolutionary undertones and the threat to traditional American values.

[27:02 - End]
Rutherford and Jordy argue that the No Kings movement is more than protest theater—it’s the surface of a deep strategy with significant financial, organizational, and ideological backing aimed at destabilizing American civic order. The episode is a blend of humor, alarm, and partisan commentary, painting a picture of a country on the brink of ideological and potentially violent upheaval, unless, as they suggest, listeners recognize, resist, and push back against these “revolutionary” efforts.
