Thousands of anti-Trump protests are erupting across the United States this weekend under the banner of “No Kings” day.

Opponents of President Donald Trump’s administration are set to rally in Dallas, Fort Worth, Frisco, Arlington and other North Texas cities.

On the same day Melissa Hortman and her husband were murdered in a "politically-motivated" assassination, more "politically-motivated" violence occurred at peaceful protests across the country.
