WASHINGTON: Demonstrators decrying US President Donald Trump's policies took to city streets across the country on Saturday (Mar 28) in the third edition of the
"No Kings" rallies which organisers hope will be the largest single-day protest in US history.
More than 3,200 events are planned in all 50 states and several cities outside the US. The two previous No Kings events attracted millions of participants.
Singers Bruce Springsteen and Joan Baez will headline a rally at the state capitol in Minnesota, where upward of 100,000 people are expected to gather in an area that became a flashpoint over Trump's crackdown on illegal immigration and the incursion of federal immigration agents into Democratic-led urban centres.
Other large rallies are taking place in New York, Los Angeles and Washington, but two-thirds of the events are happening outside major city centres, a nearly 40 per cent jump for smaller communities from the movement's first mobilisation last June, organisers said.
On the National Mall in Washington, the crowd chanted pro-democracy slogans and held anti-Trump signs. Outside one high-rise assisted-living center in Chevy Chase, Maryland, a group of elderly people in wheelchairs held signs encouraging passing cars to "Resist tyranny", "Honk if you want democracy” and “Dump Trump".

Can you believe it, that the senators and congressmen and women had sold America to Israel for a song, allow Israel to use all the weapons of USAF, USN, US Army and American boys and girls to fight their wars and die for Israel, the hillbillies and rednecks think the best thing to do is to honk, shout and put up placards on the streets? These are definitely more fun than bombing and killing Iranians. American narcissism in Washington and the streets of America are unbelieveable. Just be happy, have funs in wars, in killing people and in street demonstration. Enjoy while you still can.
Billions and millions are being given to Israel to throw at the Arabs and Muslims freely while America is drowning in trillions of debt, and there is no accountability. The daft hillbillies and rednecks did not know what to do, did not know who is responsible and accountable, who are the traitors that sold them and their country to Israel, did not know that there is an American Constitution that demands to be protected and upheld by the politicians, both senators and congressmen and women. The hillbillies and rednecks are so daft, running out of ideas on what to do with traitors, with lunatics that sent their boys and girls to fight other people's wars and to die for other country. They have not heard of the word treason or traitors.
The clowns and fraudsters that they voted to make America great again are throwing America under the bus. God bless America! Keep shouting, screaming and honking to save America...while American boys and girls are dying in the Middle East, while American money are being thrown away as ammunitions, billions and trillions used against practically worthless targets so that the Military Industrial Complex has more reason to make more expensive weapons to rape the American Treasury and American people in their war business. And all will be approved by the clowns in Washington and the traitors in the Senate and House of Representatives.
