More than 3,000 No Kings events scheduled in cities and towns in third set of protests since Trump re-election
This is the third set of protests to take place across the US since Donald Trump was re-elected as president. My colleague Lex McMenamin explains what to know about the latest protests:
Millions of people are expected to protest against the Trump administration at more than 3,000 No Kings events in cities and small towns across the country on Saturday. Ezra Levin, co-founder of Indivisible, one of the groups coordinating No Kings, said he expected it to be “the biggest protest in American history”.
This will be the third No Kings protest since Trump was re-elected. A flagship event will be held in Minnesota’s Twin Cities – Minneapolis and St Paul – after residents stood up to the surge of federal immigration agents the Trump administration sent into the region earlier this year. In January, agents killed two residents, Renee Good and Alex Pretti, who were observing Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) activities.
