Demonstrators across the country and the globe are protesting President Donald Trump at more than 3,000 planned events on Saturday.

Demonstrators across the country and the globe will protest against Donald Trump on Saturday at over 3,000 planned events.

Millions are expected to gather across the country and around the world on Saturday for a third round of “No Kings” protests against Donald Trump. Organizers predict that it will be the “single largest non-violent day of action” in American history.

Saturday’s “No Kings” marches, of which there are more than 3,200 planned across all 50 states and several continents, come as Trump faces increasing scrutiny over the war with Iran, the rising cost of gas and how his administration has executed its mass deportation agenda.

“Since the last No Kings [protests], we’re seeing higher gas prices and groceries, all while there’s an illegal war in Iran,” Sarah Parker, a national coordinator for the group 50501, told reporters Thursday on a national press call previewing Saturday’s events.

    Always ask them “What’s your plan?” That usually shuts them up or makes them admit they have no plans.

      Their plan is to absolutely refuse to participate in any meaningful movement for change, and instead actively hinder it at every step.

      They do this while also demanding a revolution that they themselves absolutely refuse to take part in whatsoever.

      Basically, I just described every single .ml user.

      My plan requires things yall aren’t willing to do. Yall only want hold signs and be peaceful while our enemy is rounding up people and putting them in camps. We are only a year or two from the gas them phase. And again best we can get from yall is another peaceful protest. Fucking let me know when we are ready for real action.

      This shit probably what they did when it happened in Nazi Germany.

        “This shit probably what they did when it happened in Nazi Germany.”

        If you’re unaware of fate of opposition groups in Nazi Germany, what they did or didn’t do, you could always read up on history. It’s out there, right at your fingertips. Everything from their mistakes to their successes. It’s one of the great things about history, it already happened so you can learn from it.
