A 33-mile trip from one protest in Annapolis, Md., to the parade grandstand in front of the White House was like a journey between two different countries.

The largest military parade in Washington in decades unfolded Saturday alongside hundreds of protests against it, and its chief organizer

Army's 250th anniversary celebrated with a military parade in Washington, D.C., on Trump's birthday. 'No Kings' protests by opponents are planned across the country.

SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — A military veteran who was trying to stop an alleged gunman and inadvertently shot and killed a demonstrator at a Salt Lake City “No Kings” rally was a “safety volunteer” for the demonstration, according to police and organizers.

U.S. President Donald Trump took the stage on Saturday to address the crowd attending the Army's 250th Birthday celebration, which featured a parade showcasing U.S. military equipment earlier in the day.

The procession, with more than 6,000 soldiers and 128 Army tanks, was one Trump tried to make happen in his first term.

The largely peaceful protests during the "No Kings Day" demonstration in downtown Los Angeles took an intense turn in the afternoon. Police ordered the crowd to disperse at about 4:15 p.m. PDT near Alameda Street and Temple Avenue, according to the Los Angeles Police Department's Central Division.

Opponents of President Donald Trump’s administration are set to rally in Dallas, Fort Worth, Frisco, Arlington, other North Texas cities.
