Thousands marched throughout Philadelphia on Saturday as part of the third “No Kings” demonstration, a nationwide day of protest against President Donald Trump.

Protests were held in Center City, as well as Northeast Philly, Chestnut Hill, and Roxborough, among other neighborhoods. Additional rallies took place throughout Bucks and Montgomery counties. 

Nationwide, more than 3,100 No Kings events were held over the weekend, with millions of Americans joining nonviolent demonstrations, according to national organizers. 

The rally comes amid an ongoing war in Iran and worries over the White House’s decision to deploy U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents to airports impacted by the partial government shutdown.
