Protesters are gathering in Chicago and across the country Saturday in opposition to President Donald Trump’s administration. Organizers say the national No Kings Day of Defiance aims to reject authoritarianism,

Protesters are expected to gather in the Chicago area and the suburbs as part of a nationwide movement called "No Kings."

On Saturday, as the military parade in D.C. takes place, the Chicago area is preparing for "No Kings Day" protests against the Trump administration.

At 4 p.m. as protesters were gathering, a counterprotester came to the scene — prompting angry chants to erupt from the main protest.

A vehicle was seen speeding through the crowd and several protesters were detained during the Tuesday demonstration that drew thousands to downtown Chicago, voicing opposition to the Trump administration's stepped-up use of force against immigrants.
