SUMMARY: The “No Kings” protest took place peacefully outside the Seminole County Courthouse in Gallatin, with hundreds rallying against the Trump administration, opposed by a few dozen supporters. Protesters criticized what they called authoritarian actions, such as the costly military parade celebrating 250 years of the U.S. Army coinciding with Trump’s 79th birthday, calling it a waste of taxpayer money. They also opposed the deployment of active-duty troops to Los Angeles amid ICE activity. Counter-protesters defended Trump’s border policies, citing protection against illegal immigration and drugs. The event saw minor arrests and some tensions, reflecting widespread protests nationwide against perceived government overreach.

One of nearly 2,000 protests against the Trump administration took place Saturday in Gallatin.
