Los Angeles and cities around the nation are bracing for 'No Kings' protests ahead of Trump's military parade as an appeals court ruling keeps the National Guard under the president's control for now.

More than 1,500 events are planned throughout the U.S. to send a loud message to President Donald Trump: “In America, we don’t do kings.”

Protesters held signs that read, “No kings since 1776,” “Bad Things Happen When Good People Do Nothing,” “Stop the Parade Fund Medicaid,” “When cruelty becomes normal compassion looks radical” and “Make Orwell Fiction Again.”

As the military presence ramped up in Los Angeles, communities are preparing for the largest protests against Trump since he took office.

Amid a nationwide day of protest and following days of unrest in downtown Los Angeles, multiple simultaneous gatherings are expected to take place across Southern California on Saturday.

As President Donald Trump hosts a military parade in Washington, protesters will gather across the region, from downtown to Santa Monica to Anaheim.

No Kings protests were held Saturday in nearly 2,000 places across the U.S. The protests were planned on the same day as the military parade in D.C.

Rallies are planned across Long Island and in New York City on Saturday, part of "No Kings" protests in hundreds of American cities scheduled on the same day as a military parade in Washington, D.C., to celebrate the 250th birthday of the U.S. Army.
