PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Cities large and small were preparing for major demonstrations Saturday across the U.S. against President Donald Trump, as officials urge calm, National Guard troops mobilize and Trump attends a military parade in Washington to mark the Army’s 250th anniversary.

Attendees chanted "No dictators," "No kings" along the route. There was also an array of people carrying signs reading: "No hate, racism, Trump," "No kings," "fighting tyranny since 1776" and many more promoting peace. Cars honked, backing marchers.

The "No Kings" protest, organized by Ohio 50501, drew hundreds of people to the Ohio Statehouse denouncing the Trump administration.

The "No Kings" Chicago protest Saturday in Daley Plaza is one of the anchor events for a national anti-Trump movement. It is one of more than 1,800 protests being held nationwide in response to the Trump military parade.

Demonstrators will march in Philly just days after Trump's controversial move to send troops to Los Angeles in response to protests against ICE.

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.
