Thousands peacefully gathered Saturday to protest the Trump administration as part of a nationwide 'No Kings' protest in nearly 2,000 locations.

The largest is expected to take place in Portland, where at least five separate demonstrations are planned in and outside of downtown. Two downtown events will happen on Naito Parkway. One will gather at the Salmon Street Springs and another will form at the Battleship Oregon Memorial in Tom McCall Waterfront Park.

Tens of thousands have gathered in downtown Portland for a "No Kings" rally on Saturday to protest the Trump administration ahead of a Washington military parade marking the Army’s 250th anniversary as well as the president’s birthday.

Tens of thousands of Portlanders marched across the Willamette River this afternoon in a show of numbers aimed at opposing President Donald Trump’s deportation campaign and mocking his birthday celebration.

A nationwide protest is planned on President Donald Trump's birthday to counter a large military parade taking place the same day in Washington, D.C.

Federal officers in tactical gear are clashing with demonstrators and deploying smoke, tear gas and flash grenades, the Oregonian reports.

“The most threatening sound to an oligarch is laughter.”

Around 2,000 protests were planned on Saturday in opposition to President Donald Trump. Large crowds turned out in cities like Portland, Denver, Chicago, Houston and Los Angeles – and in smaller communities in traditionally conservative areas.
