As President Donald Trump’s military parade rolled through the nation’s capital on Saturday, millions of Americans across the country took part in the largest coordinated protests against the president since the start of his second administration.
While Trump’s parade aimed to show America’s military prowess in its new era — remade under the administration’s anti-diversity, equity and inclusion policies — over 2,000 protests planned for major cities and small towns nationwide were expected to outdo the president’s parade in scale.
“These are not normal times in America. This is not a normal presidency,” Rep. Chuy Garcia (D-Ill.) told thousands of demonstrators who had gathered in Chicago.
The demonstrations, organized by an extensive list of progressive organizations including the ACLU, Indivisible and the Service Employees International Union, were dubbed “No Kings” protests and aimed to highlight Americans’ resistance to the Trump administration.
“No Kings is really about standing up for democracy, standing up for people’s rights and liberties in this country and against the gross abuse of power that we’ve seen consistently from the Trump administration,” ACLU’s chief political and advocacy officer Deirdre Schifeling said in an interview earlier this week.
Trump’s military parade and the counterprotests come at a time of heightened political tensions across the country.

“Trump’s military parade” = The Army’s 250th anniversary.
Any report on how The Resistance 1.0 worked out?

These people are insane ...especially the white women
The ones I saw were pathetic. Obviously, the DNC showed up and what does No Kings even mean?
We should have had a No Vegetables protest.
I like how they pretend that it isn’t all organized by the Democrat Party.
“what does No Kings even mean?”
My guess is that is was coined in a Soros sponsored focus group.

EXACTLY what I was about to say, Vision. The bias is so obvious.
Our turn will be coming in 26. We need to screw this joint up before Newscum turns it over to the Mexicans. Judges who don’t rule against everything the far left does politically will be locked up in prison. Our turn is coming and we’re going to play using the DemonRATS rules.
Only saw a bunch of boomers at these protests. I think it’s just a weak attempt by the DNC to get regular voters to forget their anti-ICE and Pro-illegal alien riots that are still happening.
If he WAS a king, or, as Swalwell calls him, “America’s Hitler”, would they be allowed to protest?
Arrested? Stopped? Dispersed?
Wouldn’t they all be executed or in concentration camps?
Some King, eh?
no retards would be better
Most Democrats like to use the word NO when controlling others. They absolutely hate that same word NO being used as a way to control what they want to do.
Right, normal presidency is having a potted plant in the Oval Office 😎
