The third day of protests by the 'No Kings' movement began this Saturday in the United States, where organizers expect more than 3,300 gatherings, the largest mobilization to date against President Donald Trump, the war in Iran, and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). The coalition of about 400 groups, such as Amnesty International, Indivisible, unions, and the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), expects to surpass the previous two editions: 7 million attendees and 2,700 events last October, and 5 million protesters at 2,100 sites in June 2025. The marches in all 50 states condemn the 'authoritarianism' they perceive in Trump's second term, particularly due to alleged ICE abuses and immigration operations that resulted in the deaths of two U.S. citizens in Minnesota in January. They will also focus on denouncing Trump's 'illegal war' in Iran, which marks its one-month anniversary this Saturday. 'Americans are fed up with this constant chaos and are ready to unite in solidarity against the excessive and atrocious actions of the Trump administration against working families and immigrants,' the coalition stated in a press release before the march. The main rally was scheduled for 2:00 PM Central Time (7:00 PM GMT) in Minnesota, where ICE and Border Patrol killed Renee Good and Alex Pretti, two U.S. citizens, in January, fueling national outrage over Trump's immigration raids. In Minneapolis, the largest city in the state, the participation of progressive Senator Bernie Sanders, actress Jane Fonda, and leaders of the country's largest unions, such as AFL-CIO President Liz Schuler, is expected. The demonstrations come as Trump's disapproval has reached its highest level during his two terms, with 59% of Americans disapproving of his performance, according to a Fox News poll released on Wednesday.
