Thousands of communities across the country have No Kings demonstrations scheduled for June 14, which is also the same day as the Trump administration has planned a pomp-filled military parade in Washington, D.C. June 14 is the day the Continental Congress voted to form the Continental Army in 1775.

The event was one of more than 2,000 “No Kings” rallies held across the country on Saturday, protesting what organizers call “authoritarianism, billionaire-first politics, and the militarization of our democracy.

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.

While President Donald Trump attended a military parade he ordered on his birthday to recognize the 250th anniversary of the U.S. Army in Washington, D.C., thousands of people in the Kansas City metro area flexed their First Amendment right Saturday to voice their opposition to polices of the Trump administration during the “No Kings” national day of defiance.

At least 1,500 "No Kings" protests nationwide are planned Saturday on the same day President Donald Trump scheduled a large-scale military parade in Washington, D.C. on Flag Day and his 79th birthday.
