Soros-Linked Group Wants To Drive Students To "No Kings" Protests In October — And Feed Them, Give Them Signs, And Other Materials
The progressive group Blue Future, a project of a hybrid federal PAC called the Youth Progressive Action Catalyst (YPAC), is asking for donations right now so it can raise funds to transport college students to their nearest No Kings protest on October 18th.
Blue Future is one of more than 200 organizations listed as partners for the second No Kings, along with the ACLU, AFT, CT Citizen Action Group, Greenpeace, Human Rights Campaign, Indivisible, League of Women Voters, MarchOn, SEIU, Working Families Power, and so on.
In addition to buses, Blue Future also wants to buy the protesters coffee, bagels, pizza, signs and other materials they may need for the big day. Gee, how thoughtful!
Like other No Kings-linked groups, Blue Future is running donations through Act Blue, which has been called out by President Trump in an investigation into unlawful “straw donors” and foreign contributions impacting American elections.
During the 2020 election, Blue Future launched its first paid training program with $300,000 going directly to 250+ youth organizers who logged 2,700 volunteer hours, called 651,129 voters, and recruited thousands of volunteers for 53 state and federal campaigns.
Another $40,000 went to local organizers for the Georgia runoff elections, and $30,000 to racial justice organizations and community bail funds.
The group boasted about having training sessions with high profile democrats like Nancy Pelosi, Bernie Sanders, Hakeem Jeffries, and Rashida Tlaib.
By the time 2024 rolled around, the group paid youth organizers aged 16-25 up to a $1,500 stipend, and up to $3,500 for volunteer mobilization. The group’s impact in 2024 included:
650,656 calls for Democratic candidates in swing districts and states;
$300,000 invested in youth organizing at the local, state, and national level;
28 organizational grants between $500-$5,500 via the Youth Power Fund;
1,000+ young people trained & mobilized through Blue Future; and
11,646 hours volunteered on competitive campaigns.
After Trump won in 2024, the group paid folks $20 to join a program that “created space for people to come together, grieve, laugh, learn, and build trusting relationships.”
People who wanted to put in a little more effort -- 8 hours of work plus 2 hours of coaching for a few months -- could join the Youth Leadership Partners Program which provided participants a stipend of $18 per hour, for approximately 32 hours from May 22 – August 28, 2025, for a total stipend of $576.
Blue Future also ran a nine-week program in 2025 to train youth leaders in field organizing, paying those selected for the program $75 – $90 per week.
People of color, immigrants, women, transgender and non-binary people, and people with disabilities have been strongly encouraged to apply for Blue Future programs.
Additionally, Blue Future has a 501(c)3, 501(c)4, 527 Hybrid PAC, and an S-Corp, allowing the group to fiscally sponsor any type of project.
By partnering, projects can access the benefits of Blue Future’s non-profit status, including tax-deductible donations, grant eligibility, financial management expertise, and leadership coaching -- for a flat 6% fee on all funds raised.
Now it looks like the group is being used to help rebuff the image that leftist protests have been dominated by old hippies trying to relive their Woodstock days, and the AWFLs -- the aging white female liberals -- who have logged way too many hours watching The View, MSNBC, CNN, etc.
About Blue Future’s parent, YPAC.
Los Angeles-based progressive political organizers Nick Guthman and Morgan Stahr co-founded the Youth Progressive Action Catalyst (YPAC) in 2017, and also serve as the leadership team for Blue Future.
Before co-founding YPAC, Guthman got his start in progressive organizing with Organizing for Action (OFA), which was founded by members of Barack Obama’s 2008 presidential campaign to advance Obama’s agenda.
Interestingly, the biggest contribution YPAC ever received from another PAC or Party Committee was a $250,000 donation from George Soros’ Democracy PAC II in the 2021-2022 spending cycle; the second biggest contribution, $115,400, came from California-based Grassroots Democrats HQ in the 2023-2024 spending cycle.
Democracy PAC is a super PAC that was created by Soros in 2019 to influence the 2020 presidential election -- the same election that Trump said last week was “rigged” by “ringleader” Barack Hussein Obama after “they tried” to rig the election in 2016.
On the same day last week that Trump accused Obama of “TREASON,” September 25th, ABC News reported that a Department of Justice (DOJ) official had directed prosecutors to start preparing probes into Soros’ Open Society Foundations (OSF).
Trump had been calling for an investigation into OSF, potentially under the RICO Act, blaming Soros and the OSF for inciting political violence in the US.
The DOJ order, allegedly from Aakash Singh, a senior official in Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche’s office, cited potential charges “ranging from material support to terrorism, arson, wire fraud and racketeering.”
OSF responded to the pending investigation by denying that it funds terrorism.
“Our activities are peaceful and lawful, and our grantees are expected to abide by human rights principles and comply with the law,” claimed OSF, calling the accusations “politically motivated attacks on civil society.”
Remember when OSF made a $220 million investment into “racial justice” in the wake of George Floyd’s death in 2020 to:
help the “struggle to dismantle systemic racism” in America;
“reimagine policing, end mass incarceration, and eliminate the barriers to opportunity that have been the source of inequity”; and
“to fight voter suppression and disinformation, and ensure safe and secure elections, in the midst of the pandemic.”
Then remember all of those “mostly peaceful and lawful” protests for “racial justice” that caused $1 billion - $2 billion in damages, making the protests the most expensive in insurance history.
And remember how the truth about those protests, along with the truth about covid, voter fraud, mail-in ballot dumps in the middle of the night in swing states, etc., was actually the information that was suppressed in 2020 (and has been for years since).
Yeah, we remember.
