They said 5M showed on for the first one on June 14.
The No Kings protests, also known internationally as the No Dictators or No Tyrants protests, is a series of demonstrations that took place on June 14, 2025 (labelled as No Kings Day by the participants), largely in the United States, against Donald Trump’s policies and actions during his second presidency, including his purported fascist tendencies and associated democratic backsliding in the U.S. The protests took place on the same day as the U.S. Army 250th Anniversary Parade and Trump’s 79th birthday.
Organizers estimated that more than five million people participated in more than 2,100 cities and towns, including the flagship event in Philadelphia. More protests took place in the U.S. territories of Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico, and the United States Virgin Islands, and in 20 foreign countries, including Canada, Japan, Mexico, and in Europe.
In countries with constitutional monarchies such as Canada and the United Kingdom, the alternate “Dictators” or “Tyrants” titles were favored over “Kings” to avoid confusion with anti-monarchic movements; Hawaii did the same to avoid confusion with a King Kamehameha Day parade held on the same day.
Go recruiting and meet people, but don’t take these protests seriously (is my take)
Yep these are organizing opportunities to pull some of the more left curious libs into our orbit and to reform them. I’ve seen it happen many times over the past year or so.
