A stark contrast emerged in attendance between the Trump administration’s Army birthday parade in Washington, DC, and the sweeping “No Kings” protests held nationwide.

The 'No King's' demonstration against President Trump and his policies on had an estimated 7,000 people that gathered along Sarasota's bayfront.

Ruffalo turned out at a rally in New York, where he delivered a passionate speech.

From Silver Spring and Bethesda and Gaithersburg in Maryland, to Fairfax and Falls Church and Arlington in Virginia, people throughout the region came out for “ No Kings Day of Defiiance ” protests. (There was not a “No Kings” protest in DC itself, but there was a march from Logan Circle to the White House organized by Refuse Fascism .)

Protests are planned for 1,800 communities nationwide on June 14, including more than 200 in California, the same day President Donald Trump holds a military parade in Washington, D.C.

Hundreds of “No Kings” demonstrations took place in cities and towns throughout the U.S.
