As part of nationwide protests against Trump administration policies, Texans hit the streets in at least sixty cities.
AUSTIN, Texas — As the official "No Kings" protest at the Texas Capitol ended, police closed a number of streets in Downtown Austin as protesters began walking through downtown.
The “day of defiance” protests began as early as 10 a.m. in North Texas, while the Washington, D.C., military parade for the Army’s 250th birthday starts at 5:30 p.m. Central.
A breakdown of who was charged with what and why wasn't immediately available, but the protest and related marches shut down streets throughout the day and into Saturday night.
"I think we will see the largest peaceful single day protests that this country has seen certainly since the first Trump term," said Indivisible cofounder Ezra Levin, one of the organizers of the "No Kings" protest effort.
