Anonymous Facebook flier promotes opposition to Grand Junction No Kings Day protest

The above flier was posted on Facebook on June 12 by “Advance Mesa County,” a “group” that claims on FB to be a non-governmental organization (nonprofit). A search of Colorado’s database of charitable organizations turned up no organization named “Advance Mesa County.”

As of 11:15 a.m. this morning, Friday, June 13, 2025, Advance Mesa County’s Facebook page had 22 followers and 7 “likes.”  It lists no person accountable for creating the page or posting the flier.

Whoever posted the flier appears to be trying to keep their identity secret and avoid taking responsibility for their actions.

  1. Two posts, sorry Anne.
    I’ve decided to go down to the demonstration (s).
    I’ll park at the hospital and walk. I’ve never seen anything like this in person, so I should go because it’s so close.
    Not sure what the cops are going to do about people using the roundabouts. They may end up closing one direction down because this is a busy area. We shall see.

  2. I will be ready and others should too to photograph the license plates of anyone who rolls coal at the demonstrators or harasses us in any way. Harassment is illegal and so is rolling coal, so they need to start feeling the consequences.

  3. MAGATs (even the ones who publicly deny they’re MAGATs) really thought their Cheeto Messiah would wave his tiny little hands and America would turn into their idea of paradise, like somewhere south of Denmark in the mid 1930’s. But people are daring to push back, and aren’t cowering in the way they fantasized about; so they screech about the BLM protests (which were overwhelmingly peaceful), and make false comparisons to the Rodney King riots. You might call them MACOs.

    MAGAts Always Chicken Out

  4. I don’t think they took the time to think about the optics of their message. First, showing opposition to a democratic protest while waving American flags is a huge irony. Second, MAGA truck rallies were heavily mocked online when this did this during the first Trump administration, with a lot of visual comparisons to ISIS rallies in the Middle East. “Vanilla ISIS” I think they were called. Is their intent to mock, or be mocked? And third, what are these people bothered by? If MAGA has such a winning platform, then why do they need to worry about opposition? They won the election, and they’re getting what they voted for.

    Sadly, this doesn’t sound like a very productive way to make a statement, but more like a veiled attempt to be agitators.

    1. Yes, their intent is to mock and they don’t care if you mock them because they have no respect for you and what you are doing.

      It’s ironic that you would say that what they are doing is unproductive, while you have no question about whether what you are doing is productive.

      Trump is the president, and he will continue in that role unless he is impeached and convicted, (unlikely) but then you get JD Vance.

      We all get that you hate him but you think making a spectacle of your hatred is doing something. You gather up all the lies and exaggerations and shout “see! this is why we hate him. You should hate him,too”

      I recently cited that 57% of Hispanic male voters voted Trump. Are they racist buffoons or are they just sick of the democrats and weepy men like Alex Padilla who don’t think they have to obey the rules of protocol?

      Any way…have fun tomorrow and don’t forget your sunscreen.

        You’re ridiculous. If you are informed by Fox you’re not informed! We are legitimately protesting the heavy handed personal attacks Trump is making. His big, beautiful bill will hurt me and my friends who are retired. It will hurt children who eat at school which may be the only hot meal they have that day. It will take Medicaid away from 18 Million children and people like me who get their insurance payments paid by Medicaid. That will take $200 a month out of my already small check. It will affect veterans too. Don’t think you’re immune when prices are already beginning to rise because of tariffs. All our allies have been alienated. Unemployment is rising. We are in a recession created by Trump. Just a few reasons to protest. Trump thinks he can do anything including what would have been called treason before the SCOTUS gave him carte blanc immunity. He is not a king. America has no kings. He cannot deny the three branches of government checks and balances.
