'No Kings' protest against Trump policies scheduled for Saturday
UNITED STATES, JUN 14 – Nearly 2,000 protests are planned nationwide opposing President Trump's $25-$45 million military parade, organized to reject authoritarianism and militarization, attracting six-figure crowds in major cities.
- On Saturday, June 14, the 'No Kings' movement organized nearly 2,000 protests across the U.S., excluding Washington, D.C., to oppose President Trump.
- The demonstrations occurred alongside a military parade held in the nation's capital to commemorate the U.S. Army's 250th anniversary and Flag Day, which also coincided with President Trump's 79th birthday.
- Organizers planned marches, speeches, and rallies emphasizing nonviolence while denouncing authoritarianism and Trump's perceived self-aggrandizement as a king.
- The parade was estimated to cost $25 million to $45 million and draw up to 200,000 attendees, while protesters expected millions nationwide with a flagship march in Philadelphia.
- The protests aimed to shift public focus from the parade to democratic principles and broadly oppose Trump administration policies and actions.
