The protests are intended to counter a military parade in Washington, D.C. honoring the U.S. Army's 250th anniversary — which is also Trump's birthday.

Approximately 70,000 people joined the "No Kings" protest in Cal Anderson Park before marching to the Space Needle and then the Seattle Center in downtown.

Seattle Police prepare for "No Kings" protests against a military parade on Trump's birthday. They aim for peaceful management and will only act if necessary.

Hundreds boarded the 10:25 a.m. ferry from Bainbridge Island to Seattle on Saturday morning to demonstrate — one of many "No Kings" protests held Saturday.

In a joint press conference Friday morning, city, state, and county leaders called on protesters to remain peaceful during protests.

There were confrontations in several cities, and downtown Los Angeles was under curfew for a second night. Protests in other cities, including New York, ended peacefully.

As nationwide “No Kings” demonstrations approach Saturday, the Seattle Police Department issued a public message outlining how officers plan to support protest activity in the city.

Millions of Americans across the country gathered over the weekend in support of “No Kings Day”, a nationwide protest against the Trump Administration. Marches were planned to contrast with a military parade at the nation’s capital, commemorating the 250th anniversary of the Army. The events also coincided with President Trump’s birthday.
