PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Cities large and small were preparing for major demonstrations Saturday across the U.S. against President Donald Trump, as officials urge calm, National Guard troops mobilize and Trump attends a military parade in Washington to mark the Army’s 250th anniversary.

Thousands of No Kings Day protests are expected across the U.S. on June 14 to protest the Trump administration's policies, including 33 in Iowa.

Anti-Trump protests are planned for Harrisburg, Lancaster, York, Gettysburg and thousands of other places throughout central Pennsylvania and the nation.

The "No Kings" Chicago protest Saturday in Daley Plaza is one of the anchor events for a national anti-Trump movement. It is one of more than 1,800 protests being held nationwide in response to the Trump military parade.

Demonstrators will march in Philly just days after Trump's controversial move to send troops to Los Angeles in response to protests against ICE.
