On Saturday, far-left extremists descended on cities across New Mexico as part of the so-called “No Kings” protests — a loosely coordinated attack on President Donald J. Trump’s leadership, the U.S. Constitution, and the very fabric of civil society. While organizers claimed the demonstrations were a “peaceful” response to what they falsely allege is Trump’s desire to become a monarch, the reality was far darker — and far more dangerous.
In Albuquerque, protesters carried severed heads of President Trump on spikes and held up signs depicting guillotines, a not-so-subtle call for violent political revolution. The shocking displays were topped only by the desecration of the American flag — flown upside down in multiple locations — while Mexican flags were hoisted in its place, a deliberate signal of contempt for American sovereignty and patriotism.
At one protest, a woman was photographed wearing a sash reading “86 47,” an unmistakable code suggesting the assassination of the 45th and 47th president of the United States.
In Santa Fe, outside the Roundhouse, demonstrators paraded with crudely made, misspelled signs, including one that read: “R WE GREAT YE?” — an ironic twist for those claiming to oppose authoritarianism while simultaneously calling for political violence.
Violence wasn’t just symbolic — it was literal. In Las Cruces, a Trump supporter reported being assaulted by leftist demonstrators on motorcycles. The victim described the harrowing incident on X, writing:
“Just got assaulted and rushed by some bikers here in Las Cruces. They stole my MAGA Flag. I was in my car at an intersection. The light was red. Right by the District Court building.”
A police report was reportedly filed on the altercation.
These disturbing acts come in the wake of nationwide leftist riots, most recently in Los Angeles, where criminal aliens and anarchists clashed with federal agents, burning buildings and land, setting police cars on fire, looting local shops and stores, and taking over streets in a forceful rage. But instead of condemning the lawlessness, New Mexico’s Democrat leaders have poured fuel on the fire. Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham has vigorously defended anti-ICE rioters. Even more outrageously, U.S. Sen. Martin Heinrich was caught on video calling police officers “f—ing thugs,” shocking law-abiding New Mexicans and revealing the Democrat Party’s growing hostility toward law enforcement.
These “No Kings” protests were intentionally timed to coincide with Flag Day, the 250th birthday of the U.S. Army, and President Trump’s birthday — a calculated act of provocation. Instead of celebrating America, protesters celebrated anarchy. Instead of peaceful dissent, they chose mayhem.
As Democrats continue to coddle and embolden radicals, it’s clear the “No Kings” movement isn’t about resisting tyranny — it’s about ushering it in through chaos, intimidation, and violence.
Why did the Las Cruces Police Department position snipers on the roof of their building and in the Branigan Library? Did they know something the crowd didn’t. Shouldn’t they have warned people?
These leftist radicals are blood -crazy like the Jacobins of the French Revolution.
NM has become a sad place. the voters are fools who elect fools . I watched a KOAT news 7 report on the santa fe rally. Pretty obvious KOAT hates the president. they merely repeated false talking points and inteviewed discontents. and fernandez ledger, what a pathetic rep she is. she repeats the talking points given by the dem party. she has voted in favor of keeping rapists here in the USA. what kind of thinking is that. NM in a rut and will be staying there. you have to vote with your feet and leave this state if you want a better life. thats just the absolute truth. city of ABQ violated their park rules allowing amplifed sound at the protest. thats against clearly stated park rules. If it was a conservative speaker they most likely would not have allowed the speaker in the first place, and certainly stopped the amplified sound. the voice of reason is not welcome in NM. it is spat upon
My partner and I did vote with our feet and left Santa Fe (after 18 years) for Georgetown, TX two months ago. I can’t begin to express how much more peaceful and joyful life is here. We enjoy the people so much – kind, friendly, faithful, and respectful. It’s a different world here and better. I feel like we live in America again. And there are people of all colors, religions, and even politics here, yet the public square feels safe, engaging, and upbeat. No more NPR Debbie Downers. The bow on the package is that we now have a Republican governor, lt. governor, AG, 2 US senators, and congressman. Not looking back.
Ignore them, after all their 86ing their own.🙂
Even next door in Deming, while the protester, one, at the corner of Spruce and Gold wore a paper burger King crown without enough sprinkles… and his USA sign was perfectly ok…
KDEM 94.3, John Krehible & Candie Sweetser permitted on thier Facebook page, a person, Pam Woody, to put an avatar “86 47” on KDEM s pages, they were called out to remove it, they did not.
So… a public radio station, intentionally and knowingly refuses to remove a person advocating for the execution of our sitting US President.
Call KDEM 94.3 @575-546-9011… leave a message because John Krehible is too much of a coward to talk to you. Tell him, if he does answer, it’s time for him to retire and Candie to sell the broadcasting station to a non murderous person who will not tolerate people advocating the murder of our elected.
what would you expect from a party that had chuck schumer threaten a supreme court justice with “the whirlwind”. maxine waters advising her party to “get in peoples faces” gov tim walz encouraging dems to bully and humiliate trump and conservatives. well look what happened in tim walz state. thats on him and his party. they advocated it. and they got it. someone got 86’ed. is it still so funny democrats ?
until New Mexicans quit voting democrats into office, nothing is gonna change
How sad that threats to kill a sitting president is allowed. These people are sick as well as the people they are agreeing with to supposedly represent us. The only saving grace is the rest of the Country is red!
They planned the No Kings Crybaby Protest so The Traitors wouldn’t have to Honor the Soldiers that they’ve been SPITTING ON SINCE THE VIETNAM WAR!
And then who kissed Fidel Castro’s ASS when he enslaved an entire nation to turn Cuba into an Island Gulag? Who installed Sandinista Daniel Ortega who is still ruling Nicaragua since 1979 and who arrests all political opponents…. like the Democrats? SO STFU TRAITORS!
Then you allow COMMUNISTS to run all the protests and that’s like A.N.S.W.E.R., The Party for Socialism and Liberation, The Revolutionary Communist Party, The Democratic Socialists of America, and the Communist Party USA… WITH SIGNS TO PROVE IT! Their hardcore members are ANTIFA and lead groups like INDIVISIBLE with all the groups now supporting HAMAS and even chanting “from the River to the Sea” which is the same as Iran’s Ahmadinejad, “Wipe Israel off the map!” Try being an open Jew on any campus! SO STFU TRAITORS!
Yesterday, I was shocked to see a sign in downtown Deming reading: “86 47 No Kings, No Trump.”
Aren’t there laws against the desecration of the US flag and the calling for the assignation of a President???? Obviously no one is enforcing these laws or these evil people would be in jail. Satan sure has a lot of followers as shown by those attending these violent riots and acting like idiots. They DON’T REPRESENT true American citizens and those who love this country. These rioters are followers of Satan and are EVIL. You can’t call them any different. Their actions, chanting and disruption of normal life proves that. They are EVIL!!!!!! NM politicians don’t support citizens. Please don’t put all the blame on NM voters. There haven’t been any brave level headed republicans willing to stand up and run for office. Yes, NM has turned into a Hell Hole with garbage ‘leaders’ getting rich. I’m sorry I moved here but now I’m stuck. God help us, please don’t let Satan take America.
I ran. Three times. GOP. Sheriff. Luna County. I hoped since that Luna County voted for a GOP Congressperson and President, they might vote for a GOP Sheriff. They didn’t. I lost. 98, 02 & 06.
I’d hoped that my record on crime and drunks would stand out. It didn’t. Having 54 dwi arrests and 54 convictions in one year, while the entire 15 man department had only 98 total (my 54 included) would show that after going to my 1st fatal, if that did not change your mind about intervention while on patrol and seeing the drunk survive while they killed other innocents? But..that…meant… nothing to voters. I sought no glory, I was hired to do a job many simply refused to do and I did it. Fairly, honestly, without malice…many more drove home because I felt they were still ok to drive. None of them killed any innocent people.
The DNC here is and was, stuck on stupid. I was told to swap parties. I cannot. The elected DNC County Commission took away fire and hire authority from the Sheriff…in 1998. Currently, Sheriff Mike Eby, who was on my administration picks was at the time, a DNC member, he swapped to GOP…and won.
Luna County DNC is stuck on being a DNC member, no matter the cost in votes. Perhaps instead of putting an abortion clinic here, instead of Raton, and shoving 10 million dollars so the gooberment can execute late term 8 & 9 month abortions for any reason, would get them to change voter affiliationship.
Now, I’m too wore out, physically, to make a difference. I know my limits… and I am done with stupidity and attempting to convince people to get off stupid. I enjoy pointing it out… on my time tho.
I,personally would rather have a king than dictators like Biden and Obama
