Protesters lined the streets of Southwest Florida, joining a nationwide demonstration against President Donald Trump. The "No Kings Protest" drew significant crowds in Fort Myers, East Naples, and Port Charlotte. In Fort Myers, protesters gathered at the intersection of Daniels Parkway and U.S. Highway 41.
They came by the thousands in Southwest Florida, by the tens of thousands across the state and by the millions across the U.S. — for a variety of reasons both political and philosophical but bonded by fear and hope.
From protests to parades to the president's birthday, this weekend's itinerary is packed. Here's what to know about 'No Kings' protests in Florida
The demonstrations come on the heels of protests flaring up around the country over federal immigration enforcement raids that began last week and Trump ordering National Guard troops and Marines to Los Angeles where protesters blocked a freeway and set cars on fire.
