No Kings organizers project a massive turnout for this weekend's protests
(NPR) Organizers of the No Kings protests are projecting that millions of Americans will demonstrate against the policies of the Trump administration on Saturday, amid ongoing Immigration and Customs Enforcement arrests and the deployment of National Guard troops to several Democratic-run cities around the United States.
"The purpose here is to stand in solidarity, to organize, to defend our democracy and protect each other and our communities, and just say enough is enough," said Lisa Gilbert, co-president of Public Citizen, a consumer advocacy group that is one of the protest organizers.
"We've been watching the Trump administration's abuses of power, and millions took to the streets in June," she said.
