Some organizers see the rallies as a gauge of shifting sentiment against President Trump and his aggressive policies.

A man disguised as a police officer shot and killed Minnesota Rep. Melissa Hortman and her husband, and injured Sen. John Hoffman and his wife. The suspect, Vance Boelter, is still at large, and authorities found a manifesto in his car listing other potential targets.

The State Patrol asked that people stay away from the rallies “out of an abundance of caution,” but thousands still turned out in the Twin Cities, Duluth and Rochester.

After two Minnesota state lawmakers were shot in a targeted attack, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz advises against attending "No Kings" Day protests.

Minnesota state Representative Melissa Hortman and her husband Mark were killed in a shooting at their home on Saturday morning.

Thousands of protesters gathered at the Capitol in Hartford, and in communities across the state, to speak out against the Trump administration and acts of political violence.

The Michiana Alliance for Democracy brought the No Kings protest to South Bend as part of a nationwide effort to criticize Trump’s military parade in Washington, D.C., on the 250th anniversary of the U.S. Army's founding and on Flag Day, as well as Trump's 79th birthday.

Protesters held signs that read, “No kings since 1776,” “Bad Things Happen When Good People Do Nothing,” “Stop the Parade Fund Medicaid,” “When cruelty becomes normal compassion looks radical” and “Make Orwell Fiction Again.”
