A 33-mile trip from one protest in Annapolis, Md., to the parade grandstand in front of the White House was like a journey between two different countries.

Leading up to the military parade in Washington, D.C. Saturday, as many as 2,000 cities erupted in a coordinated, nationwide protest.

Sellers are hawking Army anniversary and "No Kings" T-shirts, hats and other items in a move to cash in on Saturday's military parade and anti-Trump protests.

In a city known as the cradle of American democracy, an impassioned, hourslong protest filled the streets for a 'No Kings Nationwide Day of Defiance.'

A bystander was fatally shot after security members at the demonstration confronted a man who was running toward the crowd with an AR-15-style rifle, the police said.

Hundreds of thousands of people gathered in Boston's Copley Square on Saturday for the Pride parade while "No Kings" protesters lined the streets to peacefully demonstrate.

The Houston demonstration is one of several planned in the region throughout the day and is expected to draw thousands of protesters.

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.
