No Kings’ protests sweep US as thousands decry Trump’s expanded powers

Tens of thousands joined "No Kings" protests across the US, with Philadelphia’s march past revolutionary landmarks like the Rocky statue serving as the flagship demonstration. Protesters denounced Trump’s expanded presidential powers, immigration raids, and military deployments, chanting "No ICE, no fear, immigrants are welcome here!". Signs like "No Kings Since 1776" tied the movement to Philadelphia’s history as the birthplace of US democracy. The protests, spanning 1,500 locations, framed Trump’s actions as authoritarian, with marchers vowing to defend democratic values. Al Jazeera’s John Hendren reports from Philadelphia.
