SAN DIEGO (KGTV) — On Saturday, June 14, tens of thousands of Americans are expected to hit the streets for “No Kings” protests, including in San Diego County.
According to the organizers of the No Kings protests: "No Kings is a nationwide day of defiance. From city blocks to small towns, from courthouse steps to community parks, we’re taking action to reject authoritarianism—and show the world what democracy really looks like."
The protests coincide with the Trump administration’s military parade — which marks the 250th anniversary of the Army — in Washington, D.C.
Saturday is also President Trump’s 79th birthday.
The president said protesters who disrupt the parade will be met with “very heavy force.”
