People around the country turned out Saturday for protests against Donald Trump, which were timed with the president's military parade celebrating the Army's 250th anniversary and coinciding with his 79th birthday.

Around 2,000 protests and rallies were planned nationwide, with thousands of people also attending staged “No Kings” events in Manitowoc, Sheboygan and Green Bay. Rallies were canceled in Minnesota out of caution following shootings targeting local lawmakers.
