Another round of No Kings protests against the actions of the Trump administration is planned for Saturday, March 28, with more than 40 in Georgia alone.
Time Magazine reports that with discontent over the Iran War, the economy, and the actions of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents, this weekend’s demonstrations could be the largest anti-Trump protest yet.
The nationwide movement was first held last June 14, the same day as the U.S. Army’s 250th Anniversary Parade and President Donald Trump’s 79th birthday, as a way to non-violently protest the presidential administration. More than five million people participated across more than 2,000 cities.
