The procession, with more than 6,000 soldiers and 128 Army tanks, was one Trump tried to make happen in his first term.

The parade was the spectacle event Trump had long wanted. It also helped sparked the largest mass opposition to him since his inauguration 145 days earlier.

From Silver Spring and Bethesda and Gaithersburg in Maryland, to Fairfax and Falls Church and Arlington in Virginia, people throughout the region came out for “ No Kings Day of Defiiance ” protests. (There was not a “No Kings” protest in DC itself, but there was a march from Logan Circle to the White House organized by Refuse Fascism .)

Opponents of President Donald Trump’s administration are set to rally in nearly 2,000 cities and towns this weekend.

On Saturday (January 14), mass protests against President Donald Trump took place across the US at the same time as a military parade in Washington D.C. for the Army’s 250th anniversary, which also fell on Trump's 79th birthday.

Additional celebrities including Anna Kendrick, Gina Rodriguez-LoCicero and Tessa Thompson were out on Saturday to protest against the Trump administration.

"No Kings" protests are going on around the country, including here in Cincinnati. A protest was held on UC's campus at 11 a.m.

Tens of thousands of Americans joined "No Kings" protests across the United States against the Trump administration.
