The Latest: ‘No Kings’ Protests Spread Across US as Trump Gets Military Parade
- On June 14, 2025, a military parade in Washington, D.C. will mark the U.S. Army's 250th anniversary and coincide with President Donald Trump's 79th birthday.
- The parade, planned since Trump's first term but previously rejected for cost and road damage, includes hundreds of military vehicles and thousands of soldiers.
- Opponents organized nationwide 'No Kings' protests on June 14 to reject authoritarianism and billionaire-focused politics, staging nearly 2,000 demonstrations across all 50 states.
- The grassroots 50501 Movement leads the nonviolent protests with planned marches like the flagship rally in Philadelphia, contrasting the parade described as costly and un-American.
- The events reflect polarized views on Trump's administration, with heightened protest activity fueled by prior National Guard deployments and policies seen as undermining civil rights and democracy.
