Locations are pinpointed on\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nokings.org\/#map\" target=\"_blank\">a map<\/a> on the organization\u2019s website.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\u201cNo Kings is back,\u201d said Eunic Epstein-Ortiz, a national spokesperson, at a press conference Thursday. \u201cAnd over the past few months, thousands of people have organized once again in their communities, on the ground locally, volunteering to bring their neighbors, families and friends together to say, unequivocally, we have no kings. Together, they\u2019re the ones making this Saturday\u2019s mobilization the largest single-day protest in modern history.\u201d<\/p>\n<h4>\n<\/h4><h4 class=\"editorialSubhed\">Shutdown, Trump crackdown since June protests<\/h4>\n\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The demonstrations build off the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsfromthestates.com\/article\/army-parade-trump-birthday-take-over-dc-no-kings-protests-erupt-across-nation\" target=\"_blank\">No Kings protests in June<\/a>, which coincided with Trump\u2019s massive military parade on his 79th birthday.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Four months later, the federal government is mired in an ongoing shutdown that\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsfromthestates.com\/article\/federal-government-shutdown-begins-no-easy-exit-sight\" target=\"_blank\">began Oct. 1<\/a> with no clear end in sight. The administration has also cracked down on U.S. cities, deploying\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsfromthestates.com\/article\/former-governors-state-ags-weigh-trumps-deployment-national-guard-troops\" target=\"_blank\">National Guard troops<\/a> and partaking in sweeping immigration raids.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Leading voices from labor and advocacy groups that are part of the broad No Kings coalition amplified their message ahead of the planned protests during the Thursday press conference, underscoring a peaceful day of action on Saturday.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\u201cWe\u2019re going to vigorously exercise our democratic rights peacefully and nonviolently, and against this tyrannical threat of Donald Trump and his administration, we are going to protect American democracy,\u201d said Robert Weissman, co-president of Public Citizen.<\/p>\n<h4>\n<\/h4><h4 class=\"editorialSubhed\">House speaker criticizes No Kings day\u00a0<\/h4>\n\n<p dir=\"ltr\">National leaders from the coalition also pushed back against U.S. House Speaker Mike Johnson\u2019s depiction of\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.com\/news\/2025\/10\/10\/no-kings-protest-mike-johnson-00602705\" target=\"_blank\">the demonstrations<\/a> as the \u201chate America rally.\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The Louisiana Republican claimed on\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=srnZYkzSFXM\" target=\"_blank\">Fox News Oct. 10 that<\/a>\u00a0\u201cit\u2019s all the pro-Hamas wing and the antifa people \u2014 they\u2019re all coming out,\u201d adding: \u201cSome of the House Democrats are selling T-shirts for the event, and it\u2019s being told to us that they won\u2019t be able to reopen the government until after that rally because they can\u2019t face their rabid base.\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Leah Greenberg, co-founder of Indivisible, said \u201cthere is nothing more American than saying that we don\u2019t have kings and exercising our right to peaceful protest,\u201d adding: \u201cAmerica doesn\u2019t have kings. That\u2019s our entire point.\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Greenberg said: \u201cI also want to be clear: it is ridiculous, it\u2019s also sinister, because it is part of a broader effort to create a permission structure to crack down on organized opposition and peaceful dissent in this country.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\u201cThey are sending the National Guard into American cities, they are terrorizing our immigrant friends and neighbors with their secret police, they are prosecuting political opponents, and now they are trying to smear millions of Americans who are coming out to protest so that they can justify a crackdown on peaceful dissent.\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Katie Bethell, executive director of MoveOn, said \u201clet\u2019s be crystal clear about who is peacefully taking the streets on Saturday \u2014 it\u2019s teachers, federal workers, nurses, families, our neighbors and our friends.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\u201cAll of our leaders, Republicans and Democrats alike, should listen to what these patriotic Americans have to say,\u201d Bethell said.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\u201cThe millions of people protesting are centered around a fierce love of our country, a country that we believe is worth fighting for,\u201d she said. \u201cThis is the reality across cities and towns, large and small, rural and suburban, in red areas, blue areas \u2014 millions of us are peacefully coming together on Saturday to send a clear and unmistakable message: The power belongs to the people.\u201d<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Participants joined the No Kings rally in Fargo, North Dakota, on June 14 (Erin Hemme Froslie\/North Dakota Monitor).
