Opponents of President Donald Trump’s administration are set to rally in nearly 2,000 cities and towns this weekend.
Protesters across the country took to the streets for ‘No Kings’ demonstrations against President Trump. ICE raided a swap meet in Santa Fe Springs and police fired tear gas and rubber bullets into the crowd in downtown L.
Thousands gathered in Los Angeles with handmade signs, Colonial costumes and riffs on drag queens, turning the anti-Trump demonstration into a creative spectacle of resistance.
Police in Los Angeles, where protests over federal immigration enforcement raids erupted a week earlier and sparked demonstrations across the country, used tear gas and crowd-control munitions to clear out protesters on Saturday.
More than 1,500 events were announced throughout the U.S. to send a loud message to President Donald Trump: “In America, we don’t do kings.”
"I think we will see the largest peaceful single day protests that this country has seen certainly since the first Trump term," said Indivisible cofounder Ezra Levin, one of the organizers.
Protests against the Trump administration are set to take place in and around New York City Saturday as part of nationwide "No Kings" demonstrations. The protests coincide with Saturday's military parade in Washington,
