The "No Kings" day protests were planned before riots erupted in Los Angeles over immigration enforcement raids. Trump called in the California National Guard and a few days later ordered Marines to the city. California Gov. Gavin Newsom filed a lawsuit over the president’s move to deploy members of the Guard without Newsom’s authorization.

The organizer for a No Kings event planned for India Point Park on Saturday anticipates a crowd of 3,000 to 5,000 people.

On June 14, progressive organizers in Oklahoma plan peaceful protests in Tulsa and Oklahoma City, coinciding with Donald Trump’s birthday, Flag Day, and the U.S. Army’s anniversary, aiming to challenge perceived authoritarianism and advocate for democratic values.
