What to know about upcoming ‘No Kings’ protests
The Hill ^ | 10/11/25 | Ryan Mancini

Demonstrators will once again take to the streets for “No Kings Day,” a nationwide series of protests against the Trump administration, on Oct. 18.

While protests against President Trump have not been uncommon since his first term, “No Kings Day” kicked off on June 14. These gatherings were organized in response to the U.S. Army’s 250th anniversary military parade in Washington, D.C., which coincided with Trump’s 79th birthday.

Across the country, 2,000 “No Kings” protests are scheduled for next Saturday, according to a post from the Indivisible project. There are plans in major cities like Los Angeles; Boston; Washington; Chicago; Atlanta; New Orleans; Kansas City, Mo.; and Bozeman, Mont. Planned protests stretch into Canada and as far south as Madrid, a town in Mexico.

“On October 18, millions of us are rising again to show the world: America has no kings, and the power belongs to the people,” reads the main page on the “No Kings” website.

The protest in Washington will be held in front of the U.S. Capitol building, and is expected to draw out thousands of demonstrators.

Beyond members of the general public frustrated at the current administration, the American Federation of Government Employees (AFGE) urged federal employee members to participate in the protests as well.

“The protest movement has taken on new urgency with the government shutdown that began Oct. 1,” AFGE stated on Oct. 6. “Shutting down the government is another authoritarian power grab by this administration, which has threatened to lay off mass numbers of furloughed federal workers as part of an ongoing quest to gut federal programs and services the administration finds objectionable.”

It's a protest about nothing.

I’m sure they’ll be everything The Hill is hoping for.

Just remember that President Trump has the support of millions of citizens enjoying a Fall weekend.

These gatherings were organized in response to the U.S. Army’s 250th anniversary military parade in Washington, D.C.

Which was going to be its 250th anniversary since it was first founded long before Trump was ever born, and the celebration was approved and began being organized during the Biden administration, because of course, that day was going to be the 250th anniversary regardless of who was President that day.

These people are nuts.

They’re protesting over something that doesn’t even exist.

It goes to show how detached from reality leftists/democrats are.

I guess Bozeman has made the Big Leagues.

Antifa is now deemed a terrorist group.

Head ‘em up, move ‘em out.

On the overpass over State Route 60 West in Tempe, AZ, there is a regular “No Kings” protest.

The large sign draped over the guardrail read “86” “47”.

Nice to see they are dialing down the rhetoric.

I didn’t know kings get elected!

They’re constantly yelling “save democracy!” and suddenly they’re against what democracy has produced?

What? Are they against democracy now?

Ask them if “No Kings” includes Martin Luther King.

Well, I guess they have to do something to relieve the boredom they may feel while on their current PAID (potentially deferred but none the less PAID) VACATIONS.

Ain’t life grand!

No kings? I guess the left is four cards short of a full deck.
