Benny Johnson, host of the Benny Johnson Show, discussed the recent 'No Kings' protests, noting that many participants appeared to be older individuals rather than young people. He suggested that the protests were reminiscent of past decades and criticized the lack of youth involvement, attributing it to dissatisfaction with current political offerings.

Johnson also commented on specific incidents at the protests, including a video of a protester allegedly mocking violence against a public figure and another making threatening statements. The segment concluded with a discussion about a security concern involving a hunting stand found near an airport in West Palm Beach, close to a golf club associated with Donald Trump, raising questions about safety and political violence.

Benny Johnson on 'No Kings' protests

Benny Johnson, host of the Benny Johnson Show, joins us now. Good to see you, Benny. Let's start with Liz and just the stupidity of this weekend. Yes, so we have a new term on my show, Rob, which we are going to coin tonight and I hope that your audience appreciates it. It's called Grand Tifa. We think that that's the major makeup of the No Kings protest because we noticed something pretty remarkable and it was also noticeable there at the rally in Boston, for instance. The local news reporters are saying, wait a second, like this is clearly not a movement of young people. These people are Q-tips. This is very, very old what's been happening here. My theory is this, Rob, which is that nursing homes, which are filled with people who romanticize the 1960s and 70s and the Marxist revolutions of those days, they need something to do for activity hour. And they've got to have something safe and free. And so they can just wheel out their residents, hand them a sign directly out of a George Soros van, and those residents can go and march for a little while or walk in their walkers or roll in their wheelchairs or their raspels. And that is why you see predominantly no young people at these protests. But one other thing that you don't see, and the reason why you don't see young people is that young people want something to look forward to. They want something to be encouraged by. They want a future that they can look to. And that's nothing that the Democrat Party is providing. They're providing the same old communist playbook that they provide in the 60s and 70s. Some horrible people at these rallies, too. And you're right. I noticed how old it was. There were a few younger people. And we saw one protester seemingly mock the assassination of Charlie Kirk in a video. It appears she's a schoolteacher in Chicago. The video right here. I mean, just what an awful person in every definition of the word awful. You could say right now that that's one of them. Another is outright threatening the lives of cabinet members. Take a listen to this. Who are you going to kill? Nazis. Who do you define as a Nazi? What do you mean? It's pretty... In this context, who's a Nazi? Stephen Miller's a Nazi. So you're going to kill Stephen Miller? If I had a chance, yeah, I would. I don't know if that's something I'd say on camera, bro. Interesting crowd, right? I've got a question for you, Rob, which is... This is, by the way, something that was repeated by Stephen Miller, something that was repeated by Robert De Niro on MSNBC this weekend, is that Stephen Miller, Jewish Stephen Miller, with his Jewish family and beautiful Jewish children, that he's a Nazi somehow. Is that anti-Semitic? I don't understand it. Somebody's going to have to explain that to me. That individual says they want to kill Stephen Miller because he's a Nazi. Somebody's going to have to explain... Somebody please make it make sense. But it purely is just visceral hate. These are the people who are educating our children. These are the people who are marching in the streets. This woman is reenacting Charlie Kirk's murder. She's a teacher at a K-8 school in Chicago. Again, there's no way to explain this other than good versus evil, darkness versus light, godliness versus godlessness. And these are not the people... Homeschool your kids, man. Right. I know. That's the scariest part, especially in a place like that. I want to get to one more thing before I let you go. We all know Trump narrowly avoided the second assassination attempt at the golf club in West Palm Beach. Only just a few minutes away is the airport in West Palm Beach where the Secret Service finds a hunting stand in a tree right across the street from the south side of the airport. And if we take a look at a map here, I want to show everybody, just to show you, this is nowhere that anybody would ever hunt. This is a very populated area. You can see parking lots right there, cars. That's where the tree stands. I mean, nobody's hunting deer in this area, Benny, and this is just maybe a couple miles away from his golf club where he was nearly killed and would have been killed if they hadn't found... If the shot hadn't hit him in Pennsylvania, that guy would have clearly got him. How scary is that? Yeah. Where do we draw the line exactly? A man was just arrested and indicted for trying to kill my family. I'm sure that you get death threats constantly. At what point do you start believing them when they tell you who they are? Just like the orc who's sitting there trying to do a Charlie Kirk death reenactment. These people, they're not ashamed of it. They're proud of it. And if they weren't proud of it, if they don't fully embrace violence, they wouldn't be calling and voting for a man who's saying he wants to kill Republican children for the Attorney General of Virginia. Something that we need to constantly be talking about. When somebody tells you who they are, believe them. And when somebody is hideous on the outside, they're also hideous on the inside. These people truly are ugly and it's something that we have to accept as a society, that the left has gone full-scale violent. Hunting Stand right there across from the airport had a clear shot of where the President comes in and gets off the plane when he starts going down to West Palm Beach and Palm Beach, which is right about now as we get into winter. Benny, thanks so much. Good to see you. Appreciate it. Scary times. Yes, thank you.
