Thousands of protesters gathered in Chicago and across the country Saturday in opposition to President Donald Trump’s administration. Organizers say the national No Kings Day of Defiance aims to reject authoritarianism,

Thousands across the Chicago area rallied for "No Kings Day" protests against the Trump administration. There seemed to be a never-ending crowd of people marching from Daley Plaza all throughout the Loop.

The rally at Daley Plaza started at noon with a moment of silence for the shootings in Minnesota before moving into the streets of downtown Chicago.

Protesters are expected to gather in the Chicago area and the suburbs as part of a nationwide movement called "No Kings."

Protests against the Trump administration are planned in cities across all 50 states, with some international protests planned as well.

Thousands gathered in Daley Plaza and in suburban events in protests timed to coincide with a military parade in Washington celebrating the Army's 250th anniversary and President Donald Trump's 79th birthday.

The Chicago No Kings rally comes as protests have ramped up against ICE and the Trump administration this week locally and in Los Angeles, where the National Guard and Marines have been deployed against the wishes of local leaders.

The demonstrations follow more than a week of large-scale protests in Los Angeles against Mr. Trump’s immigration crackdown and his decision to deploy the military there. Protesters gathered in Liberty Plaza outside of the Georgia State Capitol in Downtown Atlanta.

"No Kings" protests have been organized nationwide in response to a massive military parade in Washington, D.C.

A huge and peaceful crowed turned out for the "No Kings" rally, shutting down much of the Loop as part of a nationwide protest movement to denounce the Trump administration.
