LARGE protests against the Trump administration have reportedly taken place in cities across the US, marking the third iteration of No Kings rallies.

Throughout Saturday, demonstrations took place in nearly every major US city. At the same time, crowds also gathered in smaller cities and towns across the country, as well as in areas outside the US, such as Paris and London.

According to reports on BBC, like in previous iterations of No Kings, protesters held up effigies of Trump, Vice President JD Vance and other officials in the administration, calling for their ousting and arrest.

Bruce Springsteen also took the stage and performed his anti-immigration enforcement song titled "Streets of Minneapolis".

Actor and director Robert De Niro, who attended the protest in New York City, told the BBC's Tom Brook that he felt it was imperative to get out and protest against Trump.

Trump has often clashed with De Niro during his political career, last month calling the high-profile actor "a sick and demented person" with "an extremely Low IQ".

Saturday's estimated total of over 8 million protesters beats out the last No Kings rally in October, which estimates said drew crowds of nearly seven million people.

Several US states mobilised the National Guard, but organisers have maintained that the events are peaceful. – March 30, 2026
