Crowds gathered in Downtown Las Vegas Saturday evening as part of demonstrations nationwide for the "No Kings" protests against the Trump administration.

Despite triple digit heat, thousands gathered in Downtown Las Vegas for the nationwide “No Kings” rally against the Trump administration and presidential overreach on Saturday.

The “No Kings” protests taking place across the country on Saturday will be peaceful protests against an increasingly authoritarian Trump regime. These protests, now taking place in more than 2,000 sites across the U.S., have been planned for months and are NOT “anti-ICE” protests.

The “No Kings” protests were scheduled Saturday in hundreds of cities across the United States, including at 5 p.m. at the federal building in downtown Las Vegas, where hundreds a demonstration on Wednesday led to nearly 100 arrests, according to the Metropolitan Police Department.

The procession, with more than 6,000 soldiers and 128 Army tanks, was one Trump tried to make happen in his first term.

Ahead of Saturday’s “no kings” rally, Las Vegas police officers staged outside the federal courthouse Thursday.

As a military parade rolls through Washington, DC, on Saturday – President Donald Trump’s birthday – millions of Americans are expected to protest in what organizers predict will be the strongest display of opposition to Trump’s administration since he took office in January.

Police in Minnesota are cautioning residents to avoid “No Kings” protests after two state lawmakers and their spouses were shot early Saturday
