Maandamano makubwa dhidi ya utawala wa Trump yamefanyika katika miji mbalimbali kote Marekani, yakionyesha duru ya tatu ya maandamano ya “No Kings” ambayo hapo awali yalivutia mamilioni ya watu.
Waandaaji wanasema wanaandamana kupinga sera zilizowekwa na Rais wa Marekani, Donald Trump, zikiwemo vita nchini Iran, utekelezaji wa sheria za uhamiaji za shirikisho, na kupanda kwa gharama ya maisha. “Trump anataka kututawala kama dikteta.
Lakini hii ni Marekani, na mamlaka ni ya wananchi — si ya wanaotaka kuwa wafalme au washirika wao mabilionea,” waandaaji walisema.
Msemaji wa Ikulu ya White House aliita maandamano hayo “vikao vya tiba ya wazimu wa Trump (Trump Derangement Therapy Sessions)” na kusema watu pekee wanaojali “ni waandishi wa habari wanaolipwa kuyafuatilia.”

Large protests against the Trump administration have taken place in cities across the US, marking the third iteration of No Kings rallies that have previously drawn crowds into the millions.
Organisers say they are protesting against policies imposed by US President Donald Trump, including the war in Iran, federal immigration enforcement and the rising cost of living.
"Trump wants to rule over us as a tyrant. But this is America, and power belongs to the people - not to wannabe kings or their billionaire cronies," organisers said.
A White House spokesperson called the protests "Trump Derangement Therapy Sessions" and said the only people who care "are the reporters who are paid to cover them".

Rallies took over the streets of downtown Washington DC throughout the afternoon, with throngs of people marching through the nation's capital. Protesters lined the steps of the the Lincoln Memorial and packed the National Mall.
Like in previous iterations of No Kings, protesters held up effigies of Trump, Vice President JD Vance and other officials in the administration, calling for their ousting and arrest.
