‘No Kings’ protests erupt in thousands of US cities

Ahead of a military parade celebrating the 250th anniversary of the US Army, which coincides with President Donald Trump’s 79th birthday, protestors in thousands of US cities on Saturday rallied against what many consider a display of authoritarianism on Trump’s part. The ‘No Kings’ protests broke out hours after the killing of a Democratic lawmaker and her husband in Minnesota earlier that day, highlighting rising tensions within a divided country.
