Americans planned demonstrations against President Donald Trump across the U.S. on Saturday as a counterpoint to the 200,000 people expected to attend the military parade in Washington.

The event was one of more than 2,000 “No Kings” rallies held across the country on Saturday, protesting what organizers call “authoritarianism, billionaire-first politics, and the militarization of our democracy.

About 200 to 300 demonstrators gathered on Saturday in Downtown Brooklyn for the No Kings protest, a day of defiance against President Donald Trump overstepping the limits of his power in his second term.

The demonstration planned in Manhattan on Saturday is part of “No Kings” protests being organized in hundreds of cities across the country.

Saturday is also President Donald Trump’s 79th birthday.

Crowds of demonstrators gathered around the country on Saturday, protesting what they called President Trump’s overreach.

Yesterday, according to estimates by event organizers, millions marched in protest against the Trump administration, including its recent controversial immigration enforcement raids. Hundreds of “No Kings” demonstrations took place in cities and towns throughout the U.
