The 

The No Kings Downtown Columbus protest was slated for 4:00 pm during an OSU football game Saturday. No Kings is a nationwide protest which rejects Donald Trump’s authoritarianism. Around the country, seven million people attended No Kings Saturday 10-18-2025.

The importance of these No King’s protests is simple: We don’t want a fascist government. Trump is using secret police in an attempt to intimidate free speech. At No Kings, people protest in rejection of Trump’s opposition of constitutional promises we were taught in elementary school.

No Kings protests fill the streets in every major city with people who don’t like a campaign promise Trump kept: Trump’s vow to act like dictator.

Under Donald Trump ICE works as gestapo secret police force that kidnaps people and ships them into for profit prisons indefinitely. Trump fired people for working while black. Trump opposes free speech unless it’s a complete lie for white supremacy.

I was curious if the national schedule for No Kings was compatible with Columbus. New York City, Los Angeles and San Francisco aren’t college football towns. No Kings Downtown Columbus Protest was scheduled for 4:00 pm. OSU played Wisconsin at 3:30pm.

Hilliard, Dublin, Worthington, Grandview, and Westerville scheduled No Kings events against Donald Trump’s fascism earlier so people could watch the Buckeye-Badger contest.

If you don’t know, one of my hobbies is attending suburban protests because I’m amused old white people don’t like Donald Trump’s fascism. I concluded I should attend No Kings in Columbus because I live in Columbus. I jumped on the number 1.

Young women with No Kings signs started entering the bus near OSU. One segment of the women looked like protesters. These women were wearing black sweatshirts, and wearing masks. Then there were normal college freshmen women. I started talking with the women who resembled activists. I told them I wrote for the Free Press and was attending NO Kings. I asked if I could snap a picture of their signs. I then felt like I was neglecting the normal young women. I told them the same thing: I’m a journalist with Columbus Free Press. I requested if I could take a photo of their signs. One of the young women was shy, she said I could flick them but she wasn’t very good at designing signs.

Her sign was a crown crossed out with various statements against tyranny. I complimented the sign. I thought it was interesting part of No Kings process is every person who attends designs a poster.

Other normal looking college No Kings protestors started chatting with me. They were excited about having somewhere to denounce Donald Trump. It’s kinda funny that there is consensus around Columbus that there isn’t really a safe space for opposing Donald Trump.

After the protest, I told those that didn’t attend that No Kings is somewhere people can oppose Donald Trump in Columbus, Ohio.

Trump had threatened universities who don’t support white supremacy. OSU is one of these universities.

We all exited the bus near the Statehouse. The Ohio Statehouse’s lawn, steps and surrounding perimeter was filled with people holding signs, or wearing costumes. I found pirates, lizards, birds, and cartoon people don’t like Trump. I saw a couple of old hippies while 70s rock played. I was relieved old hippies have quit Robert Kennedy, Jr.

The entire Statehouse front grounds fwas filled with people who enjoyed interacting with other people who didn’t like Trump. It wasn’t all people costumed. I saw a healthy portion of the No Kings attendees were normal white women. Grandmas were denouncing Trump. Disabled women were denouncing Trump. Soccer moms held signs denouncing dictators. I saw college aged ladies in biker shorts who were against Trump’s empowering of Epstein’s pedophilia.  I saw women activist punks remanding the Epstein Files release. I saw veganism and pro-Palestine signs and activists.

I felt ahead of the curve.

I wrote graffiti under the name ANON for decades. I don’t like dictators. I don’t think the handicapped should experience a tyrannical regime. Grandmas are kind. I think women in biker shorts should have credible sex without prostitution. Punk women should dislike rapists.

The No Kings spectacle occupied the first majority of Columbus’ event. I don’t know who the speakers were. No Kings climaxed with some women extolling the virtues of freedom,  diversity, and democracy. People marched in around the Statehouse while cars circled with signs, and “FDT” played for another hour.

OSU won 34-0 during No Kings Day.

The following is my review of some of 10-18-2025 No King’s Day Signs:

Dethrone The American Caligula

Dethrone the American Caligula is most succinct synergy of the messaging at No Kings  Columbus. No Kings’s point is that American’s nature doesn't want a fascist leader. During Columbus’ protest I found No King’s attendees oppose pedophilia. Donald Trump’s power is partially because Trump is committed into empowering pedophilia By Any Means Necessary.

In 2008, Florida Attorney General Alex Acosta made sure Jeffery Epstein didn’t receive punishment for sex offenses including sex trafficking minors. Alex Acosta violated the Crime Victims Act while protecting Epstein from children Epstein abused. Donald Trump appointed Alex Acosta Secretary of Labor during in 2017 during his first term. Donald Trump sent a message: Oligarchs should fuck whomever they want, including children. Caligula was a sexual perverted Roman emperor whose degeneracy is Caligula’s legacy.

Release the Epstein Files. Open the Pedophiles.

Donald Trump is a Pedophile/

The most prominent signs at No King Columbus: Release the Epstein Files.

Freedom of the Press. Freedom of Speech. Trump is a Pedophile was the most consistent message during No Kings. I saw several children with signs denouncing Trump’s friendship with deceased children for sex mogul Jefferey Epstein surrounded by basic lessons from civics classes.

I determined Children against Pedophile Trump are a favorite new protest group.

Black Panthers were for the liberation of black people. The National Organization of Women stands up for women’s issues.

Trump’s capital riots took violent action in support of sex offenders. During the January 6th riots, Donald Trump supported Epstein’s child molestation By Any Means Necessary.

During No Kings, children are using political protest for opposition of Trump’s militant support of molestation. These children were 4-10 years old. While children can’t vote for at least a decade, children still were lobbying against child molestation.

I thought about 2025 parents explaining sex to children. It isn’t ok for adults paying other grown-ups for sex with children, even if the adult is close friends with the man who makes money off child rape.

If President Trump’s friends offer you money for sex an underage child isn’t required to have sex with the President by law. I know Epstein is dead. It’s true, Trump can’t purchase an underage sex slave from a Columbus-financed pimp in 2025. Trump is currently protecting Epstein’s accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell.

No Kings presented a plethora of complaints against Trump. No Kings signs supporting Free Speech, Freedom of the Press, and phrases from the Constitution were like civics lesson in promises of the United States of America.

Even if Epstein is dead, Trump is molesting school children’s interactions with the freedom, justice and equality lessons of the idea of America.
