President Donald Trump kicked off an unprecedented military-style parade in Washington, D.C. —commemorating the U.S. Army’s 250th anniversary and his 79th birthday—as millions across the country took to the streets to protest him, rallying against his expanded immigration raids and a spending bill projected to slash healthcare access for millions.

At least 1,500 "No Kings" protests nationwide are being held Saturday, the same day as President Donald Trump's large-scale military parade in Washington, D.C., to celebrate the U.S. Army and his 79th birthday.

The parade, honoring the Army’s long-planned 250th anniversary celebration and coinciding with Trump’s 79th birthday, is set to step off from the Lincoln Memorial under the threat of stormy weather in Washington and protests around the country tied to a turbulent week of immigration enforcement that has involved military deployment in Los Angeles.
