WASHINGTON (Reuters) -Several thousand Washington D.C. residents on Saturday marched to demand U.S. President Donald Trump end the deployment of National Guard troops patrolling the capital city's streets.

Protesters at the "We Are All D.C." march, who included undocumented immigrants and supporters of Palestine, chanted slogans denouncing Trump and carried posters, some which read "Trump must go now," "Free DC" and "Resist Tyranny."

"I'm here to protest the occupation of D.C.," said Alex Laufer. "We're opposing the authoritarian regime, and we need to get the federal police and the National Guard off our streets."
