With protests blanketing the United States over the immigration crackdown — which is to say nothing of “No Kings Day” on Saturday — boxer Ryan Garcia couldn’t sit back anymore as Los Angeles, his home, has been wracked with ICE raids, protests and upheaval.

Thousands of No Kings Day protests are expected across the U.S. on June 14 to protest the Trump administration's policies, including 33 in Iowa.

Anti-Trump protesters rallied across the country yesterday as the president presided over a military parade in Washington. The administration’s immigration crackdown has prompted demonstrations in major US cities over the past week.

Across the country, relatively few disruptions were reported during protests and marches where the mood ranged from joyful to defiant.

Masses of demonstrators packed into streets, parks and plazas across the United States on Saturday to protest Donald Trump.
