Third No Kings Rally Expected to Break Nonviolent Protest Records

The third No Kings protest is expected to be the largest nonviolent day of action in U.S. history, with more than 3,200 events planned across all 50 states and several continents. Organizers from Indivisible, MoveOn, Public Citizen, the ACLU and the National Action Network say the demonstrations target President Trump over immigration, Iran policy, and mass deportations as gas prices and living costs rise; past actions drew millions (about 7 million in October), and organizers emphasize the protests will stay peaceful despite government pushback.
