Massive protests against President Donald Trump kicked off on Saturday across the United States and beyond, as millions of people vent fury over what they see as his authoritarian bent and other forms of cruel, law-trampling governance.

It is the third time in less than a year that Americans have taken to the streets as part of a grassroots movement called “No Kings”, the most vocal and visual conduit for opposition to Trump since he began his second term in January 2025.

Now they have something new to fume over – the war against Iran that Trump launched alongside Israel, with ever-shifting goals and timelines for completion.

The anti-Trump mood has spilled beyond US borders, with rallies Saturday in European cities including Amsterdam, Madrid and Rome.

US protests began in several cities including Atlanta, where thousands of people gathered in a park to decry authoritarianism.
