Between activism, election results and protest turnout, the prevailing political winds suggest the backlash to the president is real.

Arthur Folasa Ah Loo, a 39-year-old fashion designer and former “Project Runway” contestant, was fatally shot as an innocent bystander during a “No Kings” protest, according to local police, as Ah Loo is likely the only fatality at thousands of demonstrations against President Donald Trump carried out across the U.

That’s part of why George Atkinson, a former high school government teacher, felt compelled to join a protest in downtown Houston on Saturday. The 89-year-old affixed a sign to his walker that read, “The clothes have no emperor! He’s all hat and no cattle!”

A 33-mile trip from one protest in Annapolis, Md., to the parade grandstand in front of the White House was like a journey between two different countries.

Social media users slammed CBS News for seemingly advertising "No Kings Day" protest merchandise ahead of anti-Trump demonstrations, calling the move unethical amid controversies.

"I'm really surprised and my heart is warmed by how many people are here," 18-year-old Lea Sribar said of the demonstration at the heart of a Republican-majority county.

Tens of thousands of Americans joined "No Kings" protests across the United States against the Trump administration.

In Geneva, chants of “No kings in America” and “This is what democracy looks like” rang out over seemingly supportive, near-constant honks from cars driving by the large protest that stretched across several blocks of Randall Road.
