    In America, we don’t put up with would-be kings. NO KINGS is a national day of action and mass mobilization in response to increasing authoritarian excesses and corruption from Trump and his allies. We’ve watched as they’ve cracked down on free speech, detained people for their political views, threatened to deport American citizens, and defied the courts. They’ve done this all while continuing to serve and enrich their billionaire allies.

    🚨On Saturday, June 14, we’re taking to the streets nationwide. We’re not gathering to feed his ego. We’re building a movement that leaves him behind.🚨

    The flag doesn’t belong to Donald Trump. It belongs to us. We’re not watching history happen. We’re making it.

    On June 14th, we’re showing up everywhere he isn’t—to say no thrones, no crowns, no kings. Check out nokings.org for more information.

    A core principle behind all No Kings events is a commitment to nonviolent action. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values.

Sean Faircloth and organizer Megan Smith, criticized tax breaks for billionaires and advocated for more progressive tax legislation in Maine, such as surcharges on millionaires and luxury home sales. The event reflected growing grassroots momentum, with chants of “tax the rich” and calls for political accountability, symbolizing a resurgence of civic engagement in response to a challenging political climate.
