Christy Walton—that Walmart heiress—'''does have a connection to the “No Kings” movement''', though not in a way that directly ties her to the specific “Enter your zip code…” viral warning email. Here’s what’s known:

===== - '''She funded full-page newspaper ads''' promoting the '''No Kings protests''' set for June 14. These appeared in ''The New York Times'' and regional papers, declaring patriotic themes like “Our government is of the people…” facebook.com<ref>{{cite web|title=facebook.com|url=https://www.forbes.com/sites/jemimamcevoy/2025/06/10/billionaire-walmart-heiress-promotes-nationwide-anti-trump-protests-on-june-14/|publisher=forbes.com|date=2025-06-10|access-date=2025-11-27}}</ref>en.as.com<ref>{{cite web|title=en.as.com|url=https://en.as.com/latest_news/this-is-the-reason-why-walmart-heiress-christy-walton-is-funding-full-page-ads-supporting-no-kings-protests-n/|publisher=en.as.com|access-date=2025-11-27}}</ref>. =====
* Reports describe her as “aligning herself with ‘No Kings’” and supporting “a nationwide day of defiance” against Trump’s proposed military parade youtube.com<ref>{{cite web|title=youtube.com|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WMsN4KXTBHQ|publisher=youtube.com|access-date=2025-11-27}}</ref>.

===== - There’s no evidence that she composed or circulated the forwarded email that says, “Enter your zip code and locate the planned riots in your area.” That wording appears in viral emails and social posts, not tied to any statements from Walton. =====
* Walton’s support appears limited to media funding (ads), not organizational coordination or grassroots messaging tactics.

===== Christy Walton financially supports the No Kings protest initiative (through newspaper ads), but she did not issue the viral email warning or its ominous framing. Her involvement is real—but limited to high-profile media promotion, not grassroots alarmist messaging. =====

Let me know if you want to explore whether any other public figures are tied to the email or campaign.
