Loren Malone, co-founder of Indivisible Tri-Cities, the local organizer, estimates nearly 5,000 peaceful demonstrators from around the region showed up to the “No Kings Day” protest. Kennewick was one of 2,000 cities across the nation that held protests expected to draw millions this weekend.

On Saturday, thousands of people gathered in front of the Statehouse steps in Boise to protest the Trump presidency. They joined millions across the country marching in “No King” protests, organized to counter what is perceived as authoritarian actions from the administration.

Thousands gathered in Daley Plaza and in suburban events in protests timed to coincide with a military parade in Washington celebrating the Army's 250th anniversary and President Donald Trump's 79th birthday.
