Crowds Gather for a Massive Protest Against Trump Policies

People began arriving early Saturday in cities across the country—from Maine to Florida—to join a massive protest against President Trump’s actions. The main rally took place in St. Paul, Minnesota, a city that recently experienced violent police actions during an immigration raid in which two Americans were killed. Organizers expect millions of participants, calling it the biggest peaceful protest ever in U.S. history.

3,200+ Marches Planned

• Across all fifty states and even in other countries
• Protesters will voice anger over:
• Trump’s war with Iran
• Rising gas prices
• His plan to deport many people

St. Paul was chosen because it reminds people of the violence that occurred there, illustrating how far the protest’s message has spread.

National Group Statement

A spokesperson for a national group noted that after the last protests, people are still dealing with higher living costs and an ongoing war in Iran. They added that the government has harmed American citizens, and many young people are forced to fight for their own rights. The group calls for a nation free of “kings” in government.

Polls and Organizers

• Recent polls show most voters disapprove of the president’s handling of immigration, Iran, and inflation.
• Organizers come from left‑leaning groups such as Indivisible, Public Citizen, MoveOn, the ACLU, and the National Action Network.
• They believe this third protest will be even larger than the first two; in October, more than 7 million people marched worldwide.

Geographic Spread

• Over half of the registered protest sites are in Republican‑leaning or swing states.
• One co‑president stated that standing together against “kings” is a patriotic act, not a partisan one.

History of the Movement

• The first protest in June 2025 followed Trump’s announcement of a military parade on his birthday and threats of heavy force against demonstrators.
• Since the beginning, the group has pledged non‑violence and plans to remain peaceful even if federal agents respond.

White House Response

When asked about the protests, a White House spokesperson dismissed them as “reporter‑only” events.
