More than 1,500 events were announced throughout the U.S. to send a loud message to President Donald Trump: “In America, we don’t do kings.”
No Kings” demonstrations are underway in hundreds of cities across the U.S. in protest of what organizers describe as President Donald Trump’s authoritarian policies involving recent immigration raids.
Footage showed police on horseback charging toward the crows while wielding their batons at demonstrators, with others in tactical gear firing off rounds of tear gas.
Thousands gathered in Los Angeles with handmade signs, Colonial costumes and riffs on drag queens, turning the anti-Trump demonstration into a creative spectacle of resistance.
The largely peaceful protests during the "No Kings Day" demonstration in downtown Los Angeles took an intense turn in the afternoon. Police ordered the crowd to disperse at about 4:15 p.m. PDT near Alameda Street and Temple Avenue, according to the Los Angeles Police Department's Central Division.
