“Our country is a republic. Our country has no kings and judging from the policies and the actions coming out of the White House and from the President, that does not actually tell us that he's acting as a king, and people are just tired of it, and they wanted to speak out,” No Kings Carlsbad Protest Organizer, Kathy Minton said.

No Kings Day protests against the Trump administration are being held today across the country, with thousands of people attending dozens of events in the Bay Area.

The parade, honoring the Army’s long-planned 250th anniversary celebration and coinciding with Trump’s 79th birthday, is set to step off from the Lincoln Memorial under the threat of stormy weather in Washington and protests around the country tied to a turbulent week of immigration enforcement that has involved military deployment in Los Angeles.

Protesters gathered in hundreds of cities across the US to oppose President Donald Trump’s administration on Saturday, as he held a military parade in Washington.

At least a dozen groups are planning anti-Trump protests in the Los Angeles area Saturday, following eight days of immigration enforcement demonstrations.
