Thousands across the Chicago area rallied for "No Kings Day" protests against the Trump administration. There seemed to be a never-ending crowd of people marching from Daley Plaza all throughout the Loop.
Thousands gathered in Daley Plaza and in suburban events in protests timed to coincide with a military parade in Washington celebrating the Army's 250th anniversary and President Donald Trump's 79th birthday.
A huge and peaceful crowed turned out for the "No Kings" rally, shutting down much of the Loop as part of a nationwide protest movement to denounce the Trump administration.
The demonstrations follow more than a week of large-scale protests in Los Angeles against Mr. Trump’s immigration crackdown and his decision to deploy the military there. Note: This map shows protests that have been confirmed and is not comprehensive.
