Nationwide 'No Kings' Protests Planned March 28 After Minneapolis ICE Killings

Organizers of the 'No Kings' protest movement have announced a third, nationwide day of demonstrations for March 28, 2026, saying they will focus on what they call President Donald Trump’s authoritarianism and his immigration crackdown in Minneapolis, where federal agents recently killed two people. Ezra Levin, co‑executive director of the Indivisible network, told the Associated Press they expect as many as 9 million participants and predict it could become the largest protest in U.S. history. The loosely coordinated coalition — which staged 'No Kings' rallies in roughly 2,000 locations last June and 2,700 in October — is explicitly linking the new protests to what it calls a 'secret police force' murdering Americans and violating constitutional rights. The movement’s earlier actions were sparked by Trump’s mass-deportation push, his deployment of National Guard and Marines to Los Angeles, and a Washington, D.C., military parade they described as a 'coronation.' This new round comes as public anger over the Minneapolis deaths and Operation Metro Surge is already driving boycotts, business closures and legal challenges, raising the stakes for another large-scale, coordinated protest wave across U.S. cities.
