'No Kings' Demonstrations Return to NYC and Across the Country

Republican governors have activated or placed National Guard troops on standby in multiple states to prepare for protests opposing Donald Trump’s policies, organisers say protests span 2,500 locations.

  • On Saturday, demonstrators across the U.S. took to the streets to protest President Donald Trump, while Republican governors placed National Guard troops on standby and Texas and Virginia activated theirs.
  • The movement frames the protests as a response to alleged authoritarian moves, saying President Donald Trump 'thinks his rule is absolute' and citing Immigration and Customs Enforcement actions and federal policy rollbacks.
  • Having projected turnout in the millions, No Kings organizers say more than 2,500 locations will host rallies, citing the June protests where more than five million people marched.
  • Some GOP officials urged National Guard deployment, with Kansas Senator Roger Marshall saying 'We'll have to get the National Guard out,' while Texas Democrat Gene Wu called the troop moves what 'kings and dictators' do, and White House spokeswoman Abigail Jackson said, 'Who cares?'.
  • Uncertainty about visible troop deployments has sharpened the protest's optics, as Youngkin spokesman Peter Finocchio said the governor authorized state active duty for training to ensure Guard readiness.
