No Kings

Dozens of "No Kings" protests against the Trump administration took place in Michigan on Saturday, with a couple thousand more events happening across the U.S. and abroad.

Facing backlash over the state’s new marijuana wholesale tax, Michigan lawmakers are looking into new regulations that could stabilize the overcrowded cannabis market. Plus, Detroit Metro Airport says no thanks to Kristi Noem’s “partisan video” on federal government shutdown.

Organizers say they expect millions of Americans will march this weekend against the policies of the Trump administration. The protests come amid National Guard deployments in several cities.

Michigan lawmakers and community leaders announced that No Kings protests are going to be held across the state and the country on October 18th. The goal of the protests is to support democracy and defend freedom of speech.

Across the state of Michigan, large crowds of protesters gathered to rally against President Donald Trump's administration. From Detroit, to Brighton, to Lansing, and beyond, those protesting named several issues — like immigration enforcement raids, cuts to federal programs, and fears of political violence as top concerns.
