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.”

From immigration raids to Flag Day defiance, a week of protest is unfolding across the state. Our tracker shows where.

Hundreds of "No Kings Day" protests are underway across the U.S. - including in California - on Saturday, June 14 to protest the Trump administration's immigration policies.

The demonstrations are part of a massive, nationwide “No Kings Day of Defiance” protest against the president and his policies.

The Los Angeles Police Department has declared all of downtown as an unlawful assembly, telling all demonstrators to leave the area immediately. "Downtown Los Angeles has been declared as an UNLAWFUL ASSEMBLY. You are to leave the Downtown Area immediately," police said on X.

Snopes has fact-checked many claims that have spread related to the protests, such as whether videos show a man committing several acts of violence, whether the California Democratic Party bought pallets of bricks for LA protesters ( originated as satire ), and whether a Craigslist ad proved the protests were orchestrated.

Given the sharp divides in public opinion over the protests, and the deportations that sparked them, Big Tech is steering clear of a combustible situation. “Anything that increases the tension around immigration will just make it harder for tech,” said Nu Wexler, a consultant who formerly worked in policy communications for Facebook and Google.

LAist reporters witnessed LAPD officers firing less-lethal munitions into crowds and taunting protestors from a helicopter. State law and a federal court order restrict the use of crowd dispersal weapons unless specific criteria are met.

The protest comes before leaders vote on whether or not to pass a budget that is expected to lock new undocumented immigrants out of Medi-Cal.
