No Kings protests (also called No Kings 2.0[12][13][14] and No Kings Day 2.0[15][16]) took place on October 18, 2025, as part of a series of demonstrations taking place largely in the United States against Donald Trump's policies and actions during his second presidency. The demonstrations, which followed the June 2025 No Kings protests, took place in some 2,700 locations across the country, including the National Mall in Washington, D.C., Chicago, and New York City.

Organizers of the protests estimated that the protests drew nearly 7 million attendees,[17][18] while a partnership between data journalist G. Elliott Morris and The Xylom, an independent Atlanta-based science newsroom, estimated 5 million to 6.5 million participants. Either estimate would make this one of the largest single-day protests in American history.[19]

Background and organizers

[edit]

The October 18, 2025, protests followed the No Kings protests in June, the Free America Weekend on July 4, and the Good Trouble Lives On protest on July 17. About 200 organizations worked together to organize the October protests, including 50501 and Indivisible groups, as well as the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), the Democratic Socialists of America, the American Federation of Teachers, Common Defense, the Human Rights Campaign, Planned Parenthood Federation of America, Autistic Self Advocacy Network (ASAN), the League of Conservation Voters, MoveOn, Public Citizen, United We Dream, and Working Families Power.[20][21] Other organizers included Third Act Movement, Party for Socialism and Liberation, Social Security Works, Communications Workers of America, Freedom From Religion Foundation, New York Civil Liberties Union, League of Women Voters and American Federation of Government Employees.[22][23][24][25][26][27][28]

Outside the United States, protests were organized by Democrats Abroad. Various groups organized protests in the UK, including the Stop Trump Coalition.[29]

Organizers were "adamant that the rallies remain peaceful",[30] according to USA Today, and held virtual safety trainings ahead of the protests with help from the ACLU.[31] According to The New York Times, "Many had attended a similar event in June, but the months since had seen President Trump make a dizzying array of changes in quick succession."[32]

Pre-emptive attacks

[edit]

In the days leading up to the protests, several administration officials said that protesters were members of Antifa, which Trump had labeled a "domestic terrorist organization" in a September executive order,[33] on par with ISIS.[c] On October 13, United States Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy said protestors are "part of Antifa".[35] Attorney General Pam Bondi attributed "people out there with thousands of signs that all match, pre-bought, pre-put together"[36] to Antifa's high degree of organization,[37] and pledged to "get to the root of Antifa" and "find and charge all of those people who are causing this chaos".[36]

Speaker of the House Mike Johnson also linked the protests to Antifa, saying "It's all the pro-Hamas wing and the Antifa people, they're all coming out," and that the group organizing the protest in Washington, D.C., is anti-American,[38][39] while House majority whip Tom Emmer said that the "terrorist wing" of the Democratic party was set to hold them.[40] They and House majority leader Steve Scalise[39] called the protests a "Hate America" rally.[36] Johnson also attacked the participants with: "Let's see who shows up for that. I bet you see pro-Hamas supporters. I bet you see Antifa types. I bet you see the Marxists in full display, the people who don't want to stand and defend the foundational truths of this republic."[41]

The Trump administration said it would take anti-terrorist measures during the protests such as mobilizing the FBI,[42] and White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said to Fox News that participants and the Democratic Party's main constituents were "made up of Hamas terrorists, illegal aliens, and violent criminals".[43]

Duffy and Senators Roger Marshall and Ted Cruz accused No Kings of using paid protesters.[35][34][44] According to The Independent, Marshall baselessly laid the blame on George Soros, saying, "We'll have to get the National Guard out. Hopefully it will be peaceful. I doubt it."[34] Cruz also blamed Soros and urged to "cut off the money" behind "these rallies that may well turn into riots".[44] He spoke of legislation he had introduced that would allow use of the RICO Act to prosecute the money he alleged was behind No Kings for "supporting rioting and violence", and said he had urged Attorney General Bondi and FBI director Kash Patel to prosecute.[44]

Wyoming

[edit]

16 protests were held in Wyoming.[304] Protesters lined the streets around Healing Park in Casper and gathered in front of the state capitol building in Cheyenne.[305][306] Some protests had counter-demonstrations.[307] About 700 people protested in Casper and Laramie, 550 in Sheridan, 500 in Jackson and Cheyenne, 450 in Cody, and 400 in Lander. Around 200 protested in Sweetwater County's rally, also donating over 200 pounds of food to a local food bank.[304]

U.S. territories

[edit]

Protests took place in Puerto Rico, Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands, and the United States Virgin Islands.[308]

Responses

[edit]

Donald Trump

[edit]

On October 15, Trump predicted that few people would show up for the protests. On October 17, Trump told Fox News, "They say they're referring to me as a king. I'm not a king." That same day, a Trump campaign social media account posted an AI video showing Trump dressed as a monarch, wearing a crown and waving from a balcony.[309]

On the night of the protests, Trump released a video generated with artificial intelligence showing himself wearing a crown in a fighter jet marked "King Trump", dropping brown liquid resembling feces on the protesters.[310][311] The video included the Kenny Loggins song "Danger Zone" from the 1986 movie Top Gun; Loggins asked Trump to remove his song from the video and told a reporter, "I can't imagine why anybody would want their music used or associated with something created with the sole purpose of dividing us."[312]

Media

[edit]

Fox News ran multiple stories about the protests and spread fake news about the protesters. One report falsely claimed that organizers aiming to destroy Israel had joined the protests in New York under the groupings of "UAW Labor for Palestine" and "NYC Labor for Palestine". Another news story made the claim that George Soros had funded the protests through an about $3 million grant to Indivisible.[309] An NBC News poll conducted in October 2025 found that 'No Kings' movement is supported by more than 4 in 10 voters, roughly the same share of voters who say they are highly dissatisfied with Trump, at 48 percent.[313]

Aftermath

[edit]

In the weeks following the No Kings protests, mainstream U.S. media generally described the demonstrations as the largest coordinated opposition to Donald Trump during his second term.[314]

The White House initially described the protests as “politically orchestrated,” but press briefings held between June 17 and 20, 2025, acknowledged the large scale and generally peaceful nature of the events.[315]

Several state governments, including those of California, New York, and Colorado, issued public statements affirming citizens’ rights to peaceful assembly and condemning the use of force against demonstrators in a few local incidents.[316]

The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) highlighted the No Kings protests as a significant demonstration of civic participation and the exercise of First Amendment rights in the United States. The ACLU stated that these protests demonstrate that many Americans are actively asserting their rights and will not remain silent when freedoms such as speech, assembly, and the press are perceived to be under threat.[317]

  3. ^ The Independent went on to note that Trump had labeled antifa a "domestic terrorist organization" by executive order, although the legal weight of the order remained unclear since there's no such designation under U.S. law and since, the newspaper described, antifa was a movement and not a specific organization, while Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem described it as sophisticated and dangerous as MS-13, Tren de Aragua, ISIS, Hezbollah and Hamas and seeking to destroy America.[34]
