Protesters Rally at No Kings Washington D.C.



An estimated 7 million people took part in No Kings rallies Saturday to protest President Trump's authoritarian policies. Organizers say protests were held at about 2,600 sites across all 50 states in what was one of the largest days of protest in U.S. history, surpassing the first No Kings day of action in June. One of the biggest mobilizations was in Washington, D.C., where Trump has fired thousands of federal workers and sent in National Guard troops to patrol the streets. Democracy Now! covers the action and spoke to people about what brought them out to protest.
