The duplicity and hypocrisy of Americans...

Editor's note: ...is right off the charts. This is what happens when money becomes their God. Everything becomes inverted. The hypocrisy of especially Democratic congressional reprobates is off the charts. Has it occurred to Americans the Democrats are basically the UK Party and the Republicans are basically the Israel party; or at least the DNC and RNC criminal cabals act and behave that way? Voting for either is like choosing between strychnine and cyanide to commit suicide. Voting for either candidate in either party is now the equivalent of putting a gun to your head.

The NO KINGS Party Gives King Charles a Standing Ovation

April 30, 2026 | By Martin Armstrong

They parade through the streets chanting "no kings," pretending to stand against authority and concentrated power, yet the moment a real monarch steps into the room, they rise to their feet applauding as if royalty itself suddenly became fashionable again. This is not merely hypocrisy, it is a revealing window into how politics operates beneath the surface.

The spectacle surrounding King Charles III being welcomed with cheers and a standing ovation by the very same political faction that markets itself as anti-establishment exposes the contradiction in plain sight. They rail against what they call authoritarianism at home, yet they celebrate it abroad when it suits the narrative. It reflects a deeper pattern I have warned about repeatedly, where ideology is merely a tool and consistency is abandoned the moment it becomes inconvenient.

If you strip away the slogans, what you find is that these movements are not opposed to centralized authority. Quite the opposite. They are deeply in favor of it, provided they are the ones holding the reins. The idea of "no kings" is simply branding. It resonates emotionally, particularly with younger audiences who have been taught to distrust institutions, but in practice, the same people will support unelected bodies, international organizations, and even hereditary monarchies when those entities align with their broader political agenda.

Governments and political movements always gravitate toward structures that consolidate authority. Whether it is a monarchy, a bureaucracy, or a supranational institution, the form does not matter nearly as much as the control it provides. That is why you see politicians condemning "elite power" one day and then celebrating it the next when it comes wrapped in the right symbolism.

The public is told one story while a completely different set of actions unfolds behind the curtain. They are encouraged to oppose "kings" in theory, yet applaud them in practice, because the real objective is not to dismantle hierarchy, but to reshape it.
