The 1,800 "No Kings" protests across the country are meant to express frustration over President Trump's actions that organizers say are authoritarian.

Cities and towns across the country are expecting to see “No Kings Day of Defiance” rallies on Saturday as part of a nationwide protest against the Trump administration. Organizers behind the “No Kings” movement are calling the protests a reaction to the large military parade taking place in Washington,

The “No Kings” protests have been called, organizers say, to protect America’s democracy as Trump vows to increase his deployment of military forces inside the United States.
