The socialist protest group “No Kings” and the like-minded “50501” group announced they will protest in downtown Anchorage on July 4, which is a national holiday marking independence from Great Britain.
July 4 celebrates the adoption of the Declaration of Independence in 1776, when the colonies in America declared their independence from British rule. It’s the birth of the United States as a sovereign nation. Across the state, there will be parades, fireworks, and festivities.
But the No Kings group will be the turd in the Fourth of July punchbowl, with their attempt to characterize a duly-elected president as an undesirable king, unlike the president who preceded him, whose supposed vote count in 2020, which set a record, remains one of the unexplained mysteries of election history.
Here are the details for where the group will gather and march in Anchorage on Friday the 4th:
There are actual patriotic events also in Anchorage on July 3 and July 4. As provided by Visit Anchorage, they are:
The community of Eagle River gets a jump start on Independence Day celebrations on July 3. Sponsored by the Eagle River Lions Club, food, entertainment, and games in Eagle River Lions Park make the most of 19 hours of daylight. The extra sun means plenty of fun before nightfall, and a firework show when the clock strikes midnight.
Anchorage’s Fourth of July celebrations includes everything from baseball to fireworks and an all-day festival at Downtown’s Delaney Park Strip.
Things get started in 2025 at 10 a.m. in Delaney Park. The parade starts at 11 am and is followed by a whole day of food, music, crafts, carnival rides, and patriotic observances.
The celebrations feature the popular parade and the annual Alaska Baseball League Fourth of July doubleheader between crosstown rivals the Anchorage Glacier Pilots and the Anchorage Bucs.
After a full day of activity and celebration, there’s nothing quite like unwinding in a cozy room. Anchorage lodging choices provide the perfect combination of sophistication, comfort, and convenient amenities.
Other events on the weekend include the Forest Fair, one of the biggest events in Girdwood. Music, crafts, food, and plenty of good times fill the mountain town.
A mountain tradition two hours south of Anchorage, the party in Seward begins at 12:01 am on July 4 with fireworks. The biggest bang comes later that morning with the town’s famed race, Mount Marathon. The course starts downtown, goes to the top of the 3,022-foot mountain, then back to the finish.
It is rumored the race originated as a bet between locals that the mountain could not be tackled in less than an hour. Runners get schooled by steep slopes and gravity, inertia and loose shale, and get introduced to oxygen debt and lung capacity. The winners are usually locals who can practice on the mountain, or Alaska Olympians who can turn oxygen into speed.
Fortunately for marxist Anchorage assembly member Christopher Constant, it will not be a “No Queens” protest.
Crush the Commies.
That’s funny they think Trump is a King, I don’t think Democrats will ever have a clue Their whole life is a lie with made up crap
NO KINGS? So, who made you take the jab? Who fired people who didn’t take the jab? Who replaced their candidate and dictated someone un-elected? Who tries to have the rival assassinated…2x? Who let borders open and makes you pay for illegals healthcare, education, food and phones? Who tells you that you had to do DEI? Who tells you that you have to accept LGBTQ+ and their demented dysphoria? Who really signed the pardons and laws for the last 4 years? Who was supporting elder abuse?
Thats a dictator and king and a court full of jesters! You idiots!
Logic is not a trait of the ‘no king’ group. Government is their savior & king, and the ‘no kings’ is a misnomer as truth is, they want a king, but one who requires no responsibility from them. It is called entitlement and dependency and most of them are slaves to that.
Exactly Real Ak
Another liberal turd, indeed, Suzanne. This is why we can’t have nice things. And speaking of turds, why can’t they just dry up and blow away?
The work of these “NO KINGS” protesters has been great. They have kept out the kings since 1776. Keep up the good work!
Exactly!
Does the left actually have anything to offer aside from Trump = bad?
Aside from cutting down Trump, what exactly is this protest about?
.
And, serious question, in the entire history of the human race, has anyone ever changed their mind about a subject because a group of people waved signs, blocked traffic, or hurled insults?
Yes, civil rights.
Civil rights for uber educated white folks only?
You are right, Matt, they can stand in the road all they want and I could care less. I got better things to do like work.
Who changed their mind over civil rights?
Seriously, LBJ, an open racist signed the Civil Rights act into law. Mind changed? Nope.
CB. Trump=bad is pathetically weak and distorting. Get into specifics and you’ll see that the Left identifies and protests the disaster to America that is TRump. Do you think Trump’s birthday party was worth it? Is it OK for masked men with no ID to arrest US citizens? How about his budget bill that will destroy the lives of millions of Americans and America’s economy. CB: scale 1-10, how would you rate Trump AND his administration?
20 now go away.
What about the disaster that was Biden (or whoever was really running the country)? …but I digress and you don’t want to hear about that, because it is humiliating for you and yours.
I’d give the president a 8 out of 10.
He is making the tax cuts we have all enjoyed permanent.
He is enforcing our immigration laws and he is taking rapists, murderers and gangbangers off our streets.
His administration has discovered billions of tax dollars wasted or simply handed out without ANY accountability. He turned off Stacy Abrams spigot and told NPR that they need to raise their own money (is that what really made you mad? No more rainbow Sesame Street on the taxpayers dime?).
You all complain about him being a king, but it is very clear that you really have no concept of the monarchies of old. If there were a king congress would not have to pass any bills or debate any laws. Instead would just be a declaration.
IF you did understand how a king operates, you would have to look at all those federal district judges, who are ONE person in a black robe telling the whole country that they have to live according to them. That’s not democracy. That is judicial tyranny.
In the end you scream about “democracy” but when you are on the loosing end, you really want none of that. Like some child you throw tantrums and behave badly, because you could not manage to run a viable candidate, who could demonstrate that he and she could run the country better. So spare us your hyperbole courtesy of CNN and the Squad, otherwise I have to conclude that you are just a troll, here to stir up trouble (or in serious need of a session with Dr. Dan)
On a scale of 1-10, Trump is working at a 200 level. Likely higher.
.
Let’s see. Trump had a parade. How many other Presidents, Governors, and Mayors have parades? Yeah… most of them. But, Trump is bad, so… his parade is a waste of money. Got it.
.
Arresting US citizens that are breaking the law. Not a problem in my world. Why is arresting criminals a problem in your world?
.
And, the bill that will destroy the lives of millions. I say good. About time we stopped enslaving the working class of the US in order for the parasites to live well. If you do not have a job, get one. If you do not want to work, bummer, starve to death, not my problem. Reality: I only have so many hours of life, and I sell those hours to my employer so that I can feed my family and provide them shelter. Then leftists like yourself petition the government to take the fruits of my labor away from me against my will so that you can claim to care about the less fortunate.
.
You, Manny are just as much of a leech as those who do not contribute to the betterment of society, but demand the same standard of living.
Well, I guess while the astroturfing left spends their weekend trying to make everyone miserable, the rest of us are gonna celebrate ourselves, our country and our artistic communities.
I hope they find unity within themselves, since they don’t seem to play well with the rest of us.
Lets make it ” NoQueens!!!” , also, against Constant. Also” no Princesses” against our Senator
Hillary Clinton tried to be a queen. But like Queen Antoinette, she lost her head somewhere.
And no one will care.
What? Nothing scheduled up in Fairbanks where the weather is a balmy 90° degrees?
Treat them like toddlers stamping their feet. Ignore them until they stop. They only do it for attention. Not one of the thinks President Trump is a king.
Yay because the last one worked so well lol
“Things get started in 2025 at 10 a.m. in Delaney Park. The parade starts at 11 am and is followed by a whole day of food, music, crafts, carnival rides, and patriotic observances.”
Notice that the NK guys will walk to Delaney Park at 10:45(most likely to arrive for the start of the parade)
You know, for people so vehemently opposed to authority figures, they surely seem to bully their way into venues arranged and organized by others. Can’t they ever manage to organize their own march/protest?
How about all you “No Kings” people quit playing king, get your own permit and march at your own venue and on your own dime!
Moronic
Yaaawn. When I see that group the thought that comes to mind isn’t about accomplishment. It’s more akin to “wave our sign around for five bucks an hour. Guaranteed opportunity. Cash money. No resume’ required”.
I wonder how many of these people voted for a Presidential candidate that was selected behind closed doors with no votes from the public to represent the “Democratic” party and hadn’t received a single vote since 2016 when she ran for Senate. They were offered one choice of candidate to represent the “Democratic” party…that’s not democracy by any stretch.
At L street they should wave a “NO Princess” sign, since princess has an office there.
Isn’t it ironic that the Fourth of July celebrates exactly that – No Kings!
Hippies ….. we gave them the Forest Fair, but Nooooo; that’s not enough (it’s never enough)
😂😂
To be fair, the Forest Fair forbids politics.
An illusion it will be, so large, so vast it will escape their perception.
