'No Kings' anti-Trump protests planned across Southern California: Here's when and where
More than two million Americans across the country will gather for a nationwide "No Kings Day" protest against the Trump administration's policies on Saturday, Oct. 18.
Organizers say more than 2,110 protests across all 50 states will build on June’s nationwide actions, as Trump expands National Guard deployments, ICE raids, and rhetoric about cities as “training grounds.

When it comes to Trump's war on cities, he doesn't have the courts or the people on his side
It appears that Trump sending troops into U.S. cities hasn't made people any less interested in protesting against him.
Some Republican mayors and governors have embraced the deployments. Some Democratic mayors have as well. But the effort is finding blowback in the courts, and the pushback from a number of Democratic officials has been strong.
Attorney General Rob Bonta’s comments came after a federal judge blocked President Donald Trump from dispatching California National Guard troops to Portland, Oregon.

Texas National Guard members are in Illinois in Trump’s latest move to send troops to cities
ELWOOD, Ill. — National Guard members from Texas were at an Army training center in Illinois on Tuesday, the most visible sign yet of the Trump administration’s plan to send troops to the Chicago area despite a lawsuit and vigorous opposition from Democratic elected leaders.
Images from Portland of protesters going toe-to-toe with federal agents haven’t been reflected as much in Seattle in recent weeks.
After Trump deployed federal officers to quell the protests for several weeks, the enraged crowds only grew.
U.S. President Donald Trump on Monday said he might use the Insurrection Act, a law authorizing the president to deploy military forces on U.S. soil, if courts and governors continue to block his deployment of National Guard troops in Democratic-led cities.
