over 6 000 fort worth no kings protesters march against trump fort

Despite the rain soaking their flags and smearing the writing on their signs, thousands marched through the streets of downtown Fort Worth on Saturday, shouting, “Donald Trump has got to go.” Entirely peaceful, the Fort Worth No Kings rally and march were part of a national movement against President Trump’s “authoritarianism,” according to the release. The local event was organized by Tarrant County AFL-CIO, Fort Worth Area Indivisible, Indivisible TX-24 and Indivisible TX-12. Saturday’s event at Burk Burnett Park drew roughly 6,500 people — more than the June No Kings rallies in Arlington and Fort Worth had combined. Some carried American flags or dressed in whimsical costumes, but the majority held signs conveying pro-democracy and anti-Trump messages. U.S.

veteran Jeremiah Dye said he came out to the protest dressed as in an inflatable frog suit because democracy is a participation sport and resistance to bad governance can be joyful. “When I look around, and I see my veteran brothers and sisters sleeping under the bridges, going without food, going without access to mental health care and health care facilities,” Dye said, “when I...

Around 1:15 p.m. Saturday, thousands of protesters gathered at City Hall Plaza in Dallas and began marching through the streets of downtown.

In the hours leading up to the march, speakers took turns denouncing President Trump's agenda to a crowd of cheering supporters. In Downtown Fort Worth, demonstrators gathered at Burk Burnett Park, which is near the federal courthouse. In Denton, "No Kings" protesters marched around the historic county courthouse on Denton Square, holding signs, dancing at times, and drawing supportive honks from passing cars. The crowd included people of all ages and backgrounds, united in their opposition to the policies of the Trump administration. Hundreds turned out in Denton and Fort Worth for ‘No Kings’ protests showing support for protecting democracy and immigrant rights. Protests continued across North Texas in Denton and Fort Worth Saturday morning.

Upwards of 1,000 people gathered in both cities, joining others pushing back against a perceived overstep of presidential power. In Denton’s Downtown Square, the scene looked much like other cities and towns across the United States; separated by municipalities but united by common beliefs. “If you look around this square, Black, white, brown, Hispanic, gays, straight, Christian, non-Christian, that is what our country what it is,” said protester Julian Carter.

Saturday morning started quietly as organizers and rally goers set up tables, chairs and tents inside Burnett Park for the March of Dissent and No Kings Rally. The March of Dissent, which kicked off the day’s events, was organized by Sabrina Ball from Indivisible 12.

Ball said that the country is undergoing an authoritarian shift. “Texas is supporting it. The Texas MAGA GOP and the Texas Legislature is supporting that, and they’re focused,” Ball said. “They’re taking over our higher public education institutions, causing a brain drain, and delegitimizing those institutions. It’s going to hurt Texas. Christian nationalism in schools, they’re force-feeding the Ten Commandments down our kids’ throats while simultaneously pulling back food assistance to those kids.”

By noon, the park and surrounding sidewalks had started to fill up, despite the 90-degree temperature. Families with younger children came out to join, and many echoed the need to focus and teach their kids about their rights. “It’s a great way to teach them civics. It’s a great way to teach them that part of being an American is to stand up for your rights and to peacefully protest,” Caitlin Milligan said. “Secondly, we are raising our children to be kind human beings and accepting human beings, and we want to start by demonstrating that with our actions and letting them participate in that.” To the chants of "We are the people, we are the power," a "No Kings" protest opposing Trump administration policies and recent immigration raids kicked off Saturday in Dallas as a helicopter circled overhead.

Within about 30 minutes, the crowd had swelled to about 1,000 people. Later in the day, it appeared that number had grown substantially. A Dallas police spokesman estimated the number at 10,000. No Kings protests were scheduled on Saturday throughout the Dallas-Fort Worth area, also in Fort Worth, Denton, Arlington, Frisco, McKinney, Flower Mound, Greeneville, Weatherford, Euless and Burleson. Protesters marched into downtown Dallas from city hall. The march passed along several blocks of Main Street before the participants headed back to the plaza outside Dallas City Hall.

The plaza was jam-packed with protesters even before the official start time at noon. Protesters chanted anti-trump slogans and waves hundreds of homemade signs. Observers with the National Lawyers Guild were present to respond to violations or civil rights, but the demonstration appeared to be free of any significant confrontations. A few protesters openly carried handguns, but that barely attracted notice. Sgt. Matthew Fagiana discussed security measures and how local and federal law enforcement officers are keeping the public safe on No Kings Day protests across the U.S.

Thousands of people are expected to rally in hundreds of cities across America on Saturday to protest the Trump administration and counter the president’s military parade in Washington, D.C. to mark the Army’s 250th birthday. Today is also Flag Day, which commemorates the adoption of the U.S. flag on June 14, 1777. The counter-protesters are framing their demonstrations under the slogan "No Kings," describing it as a "day of defiance" against Trump and his allies while other have been calling for the president to be "dethroned."
