Mass demonstrations were held across the United States during the 4th of July Independence Day weekend in protest of President Donald Trump's policies. The protests, organized under the banner "No Kings" and "Free America," drew millions of participants both domestically and internationally. The demonstrations were largely in response to the recent congressional passage of President Trump's "big, beautiful bill," which extends tax cuts to billionaires. Additionally, some protests focused on opposition to Trump's immigration policies. Organizers emphasized the timing of the protests to coincide with the nation's 250th anniversary of independence, with further demonstrations planned for July 17.
