ANN ARBOR, MI — Ann Arbor’s “No Kings” protest on Saturday largely took aim at President Donald Trump, but two of the event’s speakers went off script with a different message.

Protestors this weekend gathered around two main thoroughfares in Newton as part of a nationwide resistance to President Donald Trump — known as the “No Kings” protests — drawing both honks of approval from passersby and spiteful vitriol from MAGA movement supporters driving through town.

“The most threatening sound to an oligarch is laughter.”

The"No Kings" protests are planned to oppose what they see as Trump's power grab. The number of planned events is nearly double that of the April 5 "Hands Off" protest that saw millions of Americans turn out in big and small cities nationwide.

Texas DPS officers will close the Capitol early ahead of Saturday's protest to ensure safety, but organizers say 'No Kings' protest will be peaceful.

As a military parade rolls through Washington, DC, on Saturday – President Donald Trump’s birthday – millions of Americans are expected to protest in what organizers predict will be the strongest display of opposition to Trump’s administration since he took office in January.

As the military presence ramped up in Los Angeles, communities are preparing for the largest protests against Trump since he took office.
