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

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!”

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.

The protest on Saturday was on the same day as a military parade in Washington, D.C marking the Army's 250th anniversary.

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

The Houston demonstration is one of several planned in the region throughout the day and is expected to draw thousands of protesters.

As a military parade rolls through Washington, DC, on Saturday – President Donald Trump’s birthday – millions of Americans are expected to protest in what organizers predict will be the strongest display of opposition to Trump’s administration since he took office in January.

Attendees at South Bend's No Kings protest Saturday, June 14, had much to say in opposition to President Donald Trump's administration.
