Thousands of anti-Trump protests are erupting across the United States this weekend under the banner of “No Kings” day.
"No Kings" protests are planned in several cities and towns in Massachusetts on Saturday June 14, according to organizers.
No Kings protests are happening in Tennessee in response to President Donald Trump's military and birthday parade and speech.
The No Kings events come after days of protests following raids by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement in Los Angeles, and Trump’s subsequent deployment of thousands of National Guard and U.S. Marines troops to “temporarily protect” ICE and other federal personnel, along with federal property.
The event was scheduled to take place simultaneously with Trump’s military parade in Washington, D.C., say organizers.
