Jamie Raskin Mocked Over ‘No Kings’ Speech Given Under ‘Pride’ Flag on Flag Day

Jamie Raskin Mocked Over ‘No Kings’ Speech Given Under ‘Pride’ Flag on Flag Day

“Imagine throwing a ‘No Kings’ protest after your party refused to hold a primary, coronated Kamala without a single vote, sued to keep RFK Jr. off the ballot, and attempted to remove Trump from state ballots only after your illegal lawfare scheme failed.”

Though the “No Kings” protests that took place on Saturday didn’t seem to live up to the hype, one gathering in particular is getting some attention in light of an image from the event shared on the participant’s Twitter/X account.

Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD), who was the designated lead impeachment manager in President Donald Trump’s second impeachment trial in January 2021, gave a speech at the Philadelphia rally where he fired up the TDS-suffering crowd with talk of impeachment “the moment that somebody in public office begins to act like the master of the people”:

We’ve got no kings and we’ve got no slaves, we’ve got no masters and no serfs. […] The moment that somebody in public office begins to act like the master of the people, that is the moment to evict, eject, reject, impeach, try, convict, and start all over again.

Watch:

A photo posted on Raskin’s Twitter/X page from the event early in the day Saturday, however, caused some well-deserved snickering and mockery when folks noticed that the flag he was speaking under on Flag Day of all days was… the Pride flag:

Obviously, the photo was intentionally taken that way because you see more of the pole and the flag than you do Raskin, who looks small standing next to it.

I wasn’t the only one who marveled at the chutzpah of an elected official to pretend like we’re living under a king’s rule as he exercised his freedom of speech under an LGBTQ flag, free from government punishment, and on one of the most patriotic days of the year to boot:

It was especially interesting in light of the recent Politico article that talked about how Democrats were on a campaign to “reclaim” the American flag:

To be fair, someone from Raskin’s comms team apparently got the memo, posting this photo hours later.

The point still stood, though.  Showing allegiance to the LGBTQ flag, especially on Flag Day, just was not a good look. At all.  I should also note that as of this writing, the photo tweet that is pinned to the top of his Twitter page is the one with the Pride flag.

Others pointed to kingly-like behavior that Democrats, including Raskin, seem to be okay with:

Not to mention how the DNC essentially rigged the presidential primary process against Bernie Sanders in 2016 so they could coronate Hillary Clinton as their nominee, as former DNC interim Chair Donna Brazile all but straight-up conceded:

“I had tried to search out any other evidence of internal corruption that would show that the DNC was rigging the system to throw the primary to Hillary, but I could not find any in party affairs or among the staff. I had gone department by department, investigating individual conduct for evidence of skewed decisions, and I was happy to see that I had found none. Then I found this agreement.”

“The funding arrangement with HFA and the victory fund agreement was not illegal, but it sure looked unethical. If the fight had been fair, one campaign would not have control of the party before the voters had decided which one they wanted to lead. This was not a criminal act, but as I saw it, it compromised the party’s integrity.”

Let’s also not forget that Raskin tried to prevent the certification of Trump’s 2016 election victory by objecting to 10 of Florida’s 29 electoral votes:

While he had the right to raise objections, we were reliably informed by Democrats after the 2020 election that, under the new Rules of Engagement, doing so made one a treasonous, “insurrection”-supporting election denier.

We could go on and on here, but I think the point has been made.

Democrats are almost always guilty of what they accuse their Republican opposition of doing. But remember, it’s always (D)ifferent when a Democrat does it, always.

Only idiots fall for the lie that enforcing the laws passed by Congress and signed by previous presidents makes Trump a “king”.

    Well, that would cover the entire left, the Democratic Party, the media – but the reality is, each of these terms are redundant.

The cringe factor was high at our local “Cry-In”.

No kings, but they’re fine with queens, apparently.

The moment “progressive” hacks like Raskin start yelling “no kings” is the moment sane and rational people know that becoming kings is their sole goal in life. Intellectual lightweight scum like Raskin lack the imagination to accuse their opponents of crimes that they, themselves ,are not ready and eager to commit.

Raskin: full of sound and fury signifying nothing, nothing at all.

The Dems have no kings…. Just dictators, politburos and central committees headed by mindless feeble men.

The sad part of the No Kings protests and the State legislators who were shot and killed in Minnesota yesterday is the Left is normalizing political violence, shootings and now murder in American society. T

People like Raskin, Murphy, Schumer, Jeffries, and Booker and their anti-Trump, anti-ICE, and anti-deportation rhetoric is wrong, shameful, and is now getting people murdered. And a shout out to all the liberal District Court judges who block Trump every which way they can and release terrorists back into society, these deaths are on you, you disgusting black robed activists.

Find out who are the Democrats funding sources for these movements are and destroy them

The stupid is strong in Maryland voters to elect Raskin. I don’t care if you’re a Dramacrat voter. You should be embarrassed to have Raskin as your rep.

For at least the last 20 years the US has suffered in a cold civil war. Now that war is turning hot or perhaps has already turned hot. If Trump had engaged in insurrection in 2021, then so has Raskin, Newsom and many others. We have murder, riots, property destruction, and many acts of violence against innocent civilians. Large numbers of criminal illegal aliens have been mobilized to obstruct the federal government, all with the encouragement of government officials of a foreign power, Mexico. Let’s not deny the obvious: we are at war with enemies both foreign and domestic. Raskin and his ilk should be arrested. Trump needs to invoke the insurrection act. If the federal government is too cowardly, then let citizen militias do it. Back in 2020, Texas Freedom Forces (a group of armed civilian volunteers) stood guard over the Cenotaph to protect it from mob vandalism. A mob similar to the mobs in LA. Let civilian militias do what ICE can’t seem to do. Our enemies need to go home, on their feet or in a box if necessary.

Did this trash forget Dictator BUYden and student loans are paid no matter what the court says or Jugears I have a pen and a pho e and I’m not afraid to use them, or both calling half the country bitter clingers or terrorists. I think we all know where he can hang his crap.

‘…we’ve got no slaves, we’ve got no masters and no serfs…’

Yet the d/prog are knee deep in globalist activism to assist the WEF vision of ‘you’ll own nothing and be happy’ by erasure of borders, allowing unchecked migration and currently to prevent enforcement of interior enforcement of our immigration laws…. because removing the parasitic 25 million ish illegal aliens might cause disruption in the markets for Nannies, Gardeners, construction, hospitality and agricultural workers.

No mention of the 3+ decades long effort to create financial incentives to wreck the US middle-class by uprooting the manufacturing and industrial base to send it overseas. Nor their efforts to shutter and impede coal,.oil and NG projects while sending Fed taxpayer $ to find boondoggle ‘green’ projects of their ideological grifter allies.

Certainly no mention of the ‘Rona and totalitarian policy preferences of the d/prog wokiestas to suppress 1A and 14 A. Nor the endless chicanery to deny 2A in some Blue jurisdictions or the desperate opposition to DOGE ID waste, fraud, abuse in Gov’t.

They’d replace our system with mob violence directed by ideological overlords with select philosopher king Jurists to give it a patina of legitimacy as they trampled not just the majority will of the People but all our inalienable rights whenever they found them inconvenient to their policy preferences.

Strange that Jamie Raskin’s initials are “JR.”

No Kings. But Queens seem to be just fine with the Dems.

Fetterman seems to be one of the few in the party who actually makes sense and they are working hard to throw him out. Please, Dems, continue your slide to oblivion.

AOC/Crocket 2028

“No KiNgS!!!”

… but queens out the wazoo. 😀

Wasn’t he arguing the day before that a democratic senator had the right not afforded to the serfs to interrupt a presentation by a Cabinet Member?
