Tens of thousands of Americans joined "No Kings" protests across the United States against the Trump administration.

Protesters across Southern California and the country took to the streets for ‘No Kings’ demonstrations against President Trump and the $45-million celebration of the U.S. Army’s 250th birthday, which coincides with Trump’s 79th.

"No Kings," a nationwide series of protests scheduled for Saturday, was planned as a counter to the military parade taking place in Washington D.C. on the same day. That parade is being held in honor of the U.S. Army's 250th anniversary and, coincidentally, Mr. Trump's 79th birthday.

The threat had roiled the capital city, leading the state's Department of Public Safety to evacuate the Capitol building and surrounding grounds “out of an abundance of caution" around 1 p.m. DPS reopened the grounds around 4:40 p.

Natalie Benny, a board member of Alabama Equality, which advocates for the rights of LGBTQ Alabamans, spoke to the crowd, gathered in a large empty lot, from the back of a pickup truck before the march. She spoke about anti-trans rhetoric.

“The most threatening sound to an oligarch is laughter.”
