Protests and Civil Unrest

Indivisible has scheduled a nationwide "No Kings 3" protest wave for March 28, 2026, with a flagship march in the Minneapolis–St. Paul metro that organizers — including co‑executive director Ezra Levin — say could draw as many as 9 million people and has been focused on Minnesota after the deployment of roughly 3,000 federal agents and the fatal ICE/Border Patrol shootings of Alex Pretti and Renee Nicole Good. The march follows recent coordinated walkouts that drew thousands into the streets in cities such as Atlanta, New York City, Minneapolis and Washington, D.C., including high‑school student walkouts, and is being promoted by organizers as resistance to what they describe as efforts to consolidate and expand President Trump’s power.

Organizers of the 'No Kings' protest movement have announced a third, nationwide day of demonstrations for March 28, 2026, saying they will focus on what they call President Donald Trump’s authoritarianism and his immigration crackdown in Minneapolis, where federal agents recently killed two people. Ezra Levin, co‑executive director of the Indivisible network, told the Associated Press they expect as many as 9 million participants and predict it could become the largest protest in U.S. history. The loosely coordinated coalition — which staged 'No Kings' rallies in roughly 2,000 locations last June and 2,700 in October — is explicitly linking the new protests to what it calls a 'secret police force' murdering Americans and violating constitutional rights. The movement’s earlier actions were sparked by Trump’s mass-deportation push, his deployment of National Guard and Marines to Los Angeles, and a Washington, D.C., military parade they described as a 'coronation.' This new round comes as public anger over the Minneapolis deaths and Operation Metro Surge is already driving boycotts, business closures and legal challenges, raising the stakes for another large-scale, coordinated protest wave across U.S. cities.
