Hollywood is joining the fight. On Saturday, cities across America marched against the Trump administration, participating in what has become known as the “No Kings” protests. With an acute focus on fighting back against Donald Trump’s aggressive deportation raids,
No Kings organizers said they intentionally avoided having an event in Washington, so Trump couldn’t use the protest as justification to crack down on demonstrators or label the movement antimilitary.
Coinciding with Trump's 79th birthday, the parade will feature tanks, bands and thousands of troops in honor of the Army’s 250th anniversary celebration.
