Mass ‘No Kings’ protests sweep US cities

Large-scale protests have erupted across the United States as part of the latest “No Kings” demonstrations, with huge rallies taking place in major cities including New York, Washington DC and Los Angeles.

Organisers say the protests are aimed at opposing policies under US President Donald Trump, including actions related to Iran, immigration enforcement and the rising cost of living.

Crowds gathered in significant numbers throughout the day, with thousands marching through central Washington DC and assembling at landmarks such as the Lincoln Memorial and National Mall. In New York, large groups filled Times Square and surrounding streets, prompting road closures as demonstrators moved through Manhattan.

The protests, now in their third iteration, have previously drawn millions nationwide and continue to attract participants across both major urban centres and smaller towns. Demonstrations were also reported internationally, with American expatriates rallying in cities including Paris, London and Lisbon.



While several states mobilised National Guard units as a precaution, organisers have maintained that the protests are intended to remain peaceful. The demonstrations follow a series of controversial developments during Trump’s presidency, including expanded use of executive powers, federal immigration operations and ongoing geopolitical tensions.

  1. Who, perhaps aside from Trump and his little MAGA bubble friends, didn’t see this coming? People wont endure the loss of transportation, heating and potential food impoverishment. Then of course, there’s military family coming home in body bags and random acts of terrorism.

  2. “The only people who care about these Trump Derangement Therapy Sessions are the reporters who are paid to cover them.” Zero Hedge.

  3. Why is this not a total anti-war/ no war for Israel protest instead?

    C’mon american’s. Stand up against this war like people did in the 60’s and 70’s

  4. This regime is obviously a disgusting and it’s all for ‘Occupied Palestine’ or Israel and against the people.
    There should be at least three different protests:

    1.) Against the Trump – fraud. A man who lied and deceive people just to get into office – so Trump deceived the american electorate with the massive pack of lies – Massive Protest against these monstrous fraud
    2.) A Liar started numerous wars, continues to lie, and his last war of aggression when he attacked Iran that did nothing to America – Massive Protest against wars that this liar has caused most of them in the name of his masters from Israel or ‘Occupied Palestine’,
    3.) Against the Epstein’ cover up since the public is still in the dark about all sorts of sexual perversions and sexual abuse and slavery where Trump – Fraud was one of the leading figures – That would be one more Protest that should be blanketing America from Coast to Coast

    Instead of this we have a pathetic No- Kings protest which is basically telling the world nothing.
    In the 60’s and 70’s a man was still a man and a woman was a woman, unfortunately in 2026 that is not the case anymore.
    However precisely because of that American Epstein class will be defeated on the battlefield. The future of America will be decided not by Americans but by ancient and respected civilizations like Iran since America was always a genocidal war – mongering country and it’s just 250 years which is nothing compared to real civilizations like Iran.
