Massive national protests against US President Donald Trump are expected on Saturday as millions of people express their anger at what they see as his authoritarian turn and other forms of brutal and law-breaking rule.
It is the third time in less than a year that Americans will take to the streets as part of a grassroots movement called “No Kings”, the most vocal and visible form of opposition to Trump since he began his second term in January 2025.
And now they have a new thing to worry about – the war in Iran that Trump started with Israel, with ever-changing goals and timetables for completion.
The first such day of national protests came in June on Trump’s 79th birthday and coincided with a military parade in Washington that he insisted on holding.
Several million people turned out, from New York to San Francisco and many places in between.
The second day of “No Kings” in October attracted an estimated seven million protesters, according to organizers.
