No Kings Protests Set For Saturday Across New York
A number of “No Kings” protests are scheduled to take place across New York State on Saturday, October 18, 2025
“As the president escalates his authoritarian power grab, the NO KINGS non-violent movement continues to rise stronger. We are united once again,” the No Kings website states about the upcoming protests. “On October 18, millions of us are rising again to show the world: America has no kings, and the power belongs to the people.”

The anti-Trump demonstrations are being organized to protest what they perceive as dictatorial tendencies in the Trump White House. Organizers expect a historic turnout.
No Kings Protest Held In June
Saturday’s protest follows a successful “No Kings Day” on June 14, Donald Trump’s birthday. Events were scheduled across the Hudson Valley and Upstate New York on Saturday in protest of Trump’s military parade in Washington, DC.
“In June, millions of everyday Americans from every walk of life peacefully took to the streets and declared with one voice: No Kings. The world saw the power of the people, and President Trump’s attempt at a coronation collapsed under the strength of a movement rising against his abuses of power,” No Kings writes.

Officials with the movement say another Trump protest is needed because:
Now, he’s doubling down — sending militarized agents into our communities, silencing voters, and handing billionaires giveaways while families struggle. This isn’t just politics. It’s democracy versus dictatorship. And together, we’re choosing democracy.
