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

Thousands of anti-Trump protests are erupting across the United States this weekend under the banner of “No Kings” day.

An estimated crowd of 15,000 gathered outside Houston City Hall on Saturday for a demonstration against President Donald Trump and his policies. Similar protests were held around the region.

With No Kings protests planned Saturday in the Houston area, local organizers are calling for peaceful rallies, while officials like Mayor John Whitmire say they are working with organizers "to ensure that First Amendment rights are respected while maintaining public safety.

Thousands of "No Kings Day" protests are set to be held throughout the country on Saturday to protest the Trump administration.

A large protest is being planned in Houston that is expected to counter a military parade for the 250th anniversary of the U.S. Army and President Donald Trump’s 79th birthday this weekend.

Houston-area protesters are set to take to the streets on June 14 as part of the nationwide No Kings movement.

Organizers intend for the protests to counter the Army’s 250th anniversary celebration — which Trump has ratcheted up to include a military parade.
