People in San Antonio planned a demonstration on Saturday to condemn President Trump’s military parade in Washington D.C., which is meant in part to mark the 250th anniversary of the U.S. Army. The “No-Kings Nationwide Day of Defiance” protest is scheduled to begin at 5 p.m. at Travis Park.

Multiple rallies are planned across Texas cities this week for "No Kings Day" on Saturday, June 14, from the Panhandle to South Texas. The protests are being organized through "50501," the grassroots movement facilitating independent organization across the U.S.

The protests in Texas followed days of unrest in Los Angeles, where President Donald Trump sent National Guard troops in response to demonstrations.

The mayor and the police chief said the governor did not notify them of the military deployment. They also have no details about the soldiers’ mission. They said the city is prepared to oversee peaceful demonstrations at the Alamo tonight and at Travis Park on Saturday.

City leaders are addressing concerns after Texas Governor Greg Abbott announced the deployment of the National Guard to San Antonio ahead of the "No Kings Day" protest scheduled for this weekend. San Antonio Mayor Ron Nirenberg said the city received no "advance warning" of the National Guard from Abbott.

The governor of Texas has deployed thousands of soldiers and troops to make sure anti-ICE protests remain peaceful.

Mayor Bass extends curfew in Los Angeles as anti-ICE demonstrations intensify, with initially peaceful protests evolving into confrontations requiring law enforcement intervention.

The power of the US military will be sharply on display this weekend – on two different coasts and in two very different ways.
