Thousands of "No Kings Day" protests are set to be held throughout the country on Saturday to protest the Trump administration.
Thousands of anti-Trump protests are erupting across the United States this weekend under the banner of “No Kings” day, a coordinated movement aimed at pushing back against what demonstrators see as authoritarian overreach since the president returned to office in January.
The No Kings events come after days of protests following raids by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement in Los Angeles, and Trump’s subsequent deployment of thousands of National Guard and U.S. Marines troops to “temporarily protect” ICE and other federal personnel, along with federal property.
The rallies were among hundreds of "No Kings" protests held throughout the United States, timed to coincide with a military parade celebrating the 250th birthday of the U.S. Army in Washington, D.C. Saturday was also Trump's 79th birthday.
Pinellas County joined in on the country wide protest for No Kings day. The protest remained peaceful and had a huge outcome.
Thousands of people are expected in Philadelphia and other cities across the United States today, June 14, for "No Kings Day" events as part of a coordinated protest against the Trump administration.
