Nationwide Protests Mark Trump’s 79th Birthday

On June 14, President Donald Trump is set to celebrate his 79th birthday with a military parade in Washington, D.C., coinciding with the 250th anniversary of the U.S. Army. The day will also be marked by 'No Kings' protests held in all 50 states, with millions expected to participate in over 2,000 events. Major demonstrations are planned in Philadelphia, New York, Chicago, and Los Angeles, while organizers advise protestors to avoid Washington, D.C. due to heightened security and instead focus on suburban and regional areas. The protests aim to denounce perceived authoritarianism in Trump's administration and promote democratic values. Trump has denied having king-like authority, pointing to legislative challenges as evidence. The demonstrations also come amid ongoing controversy over his immigration policies, particularly in California.
